I ordered this yarn because it was dark gray and when blended with white would make the scarf Shibui Mix. When I received it it was black. Black and black. Not even close to the picture of dark gray shown. I noted that the website did say, "colours may vary.." but black is black. I had to send it back. The person at Webbs I talked to said that dye lots were different. Not this different - black is not gray.

Thrilled with the beauty of this yarn

I knit my aunt a wide shawl with a log cabin type pattern, used lots of colors, she is also and artist and she loved it--the softness and the range of colors were her favorite part.
I have made many hats and caps with this yarn, it knits up wonderfully and looks great.
Easy to maintain the garments as well.
I highly recommend this yarn to anyone looking for a fine lace weight yarn with many color options to choose from.

The tones of the colors are beautiful. And unlike other lace weights, it has enough body to be fairly easy to knit.

I tried a lace shawl from the victorian lace book and used the mulberry color. I wore it last night and it just feels so luxurious yet it's warm. This is a fabulous yarn. Only negative is that it is such a lightweight yarn it was challenging for a novice with "old" eyes. When I first started, I had to use a magnifying glass. After a while, I adapted. I am hoping they have more colors this year.

I recommend winding this gossamer yet strong yarn by hand; not one knot or flaw in any of the 3 skeins I ordered and it wound very easily without tangling or snagging. I ordered mulberry: the color tone and saturation was better than expected. I design and crochet that is closer to knitting in weight and drape ... this yarn is perfect for 'fairy-weight' creations!

Shibui Silk Cloud is absolutely beautiful! It beats Rowan Kidsilk Haze hands down. It is so soft; an absolute dream to work with. I am holding it with Cascade Heritage Silk for Shetland Trader's Aestlight Shawl and I don't think I can bear to give it away. It is the best mohair/silk blend ever!

Great for scarves and shawls; love the yardage, price and high silk content...doesn't get much better! New colors are gorgeous.

I am really in love with that yarn! I already made a few shawls with it and it is beautiful when finished and light like a breeze. Not for winter but for a summer night out or a special occasion....a sure inquiry about where you got it.
