I use this yarn to crochet baby accessories that I sell, and it is perfect! The weight is good, feels nice in hand, and the colors are true and vibrant. It is also super soft, always important when making things for babies! I have had no trouble with this yarn whether making it into hats or booties...great results every time!

I loved this yarn it was so soft - at first. I made a sweater - I always wash my new sweaters before wearing and so I washed it and the first sweater felted. I was so disappointed but I thought I washed it wrong so
I order some more yarn for a second sweater - again I washed the sweater - it felted and yes, I did wash the sweater by hand no dryer - actually washed another sweater that was 100% wool that did not felt or shrink.
I will never buy this yarn again - expensive yarn that felts. Hours of work wasted so disappointing. Never again.

Comments about Rowan Belle Organic DK by Amy Butler:
I have a book of patterns for using this yarn and the aran weight counterpart. I like being able to choose a pattern, order the listed quantity of yarn, and start knitting - no calculations or comparisons needed.
Service and delivery comments:
I was very happy with the quick and easy service, prompt delivery, and the good price (the yarn happened to be on "clearance").

Comments about Rowan Belle Organic DK by Amy Butler:
This is the softest, most supple cotton wool blend yarn I have worked with to date. I used it to crochet baby items for my online shop, and I will definitely buy more in the future. It worked up nicely with good stitch definition.

Comments about Rowan Belle Organic DK by Amy Butler:
I crocheted a ripple blanket with Belle Organic and I just love it! The cotton content gives it some weight and it is super soft against skin. The colors are beautiful. I have to mention that it is a little splitty, but it did not bother me for crochet. I have not knitted with it yet. I still give it 5 stars! I would certainly buy it again!
