I ordered this yarn, because it was recommended for the pattern I was going to use out of the book, Knitting 101. But it is just wonderful to work with; it us soft and moves smoothly through my fingers and over the needles. I have nothing negative to say about this product.

This yarn has very little stretch and after trying several different cast on methods I decided not to make a sweater with it. It also had many little tufts of white yarn that didn't belong in the blue/green varigated yarn I purchased. When I tried to remove them, the yarn separated and couldn't be twisted back to the original shape. There were also several knots in the skein I tried to work with. The colors are beautiful and I am disappointed that it wouldn't work out for my project but the unopened skeins are going back.

My grandson grew out of his first little sweater with the tow truck on the front, and wished he had one big enough, so I just made him a size 6 for his 4th birthday!

Comments about 6.50 Comfort:
This yarn is much better quality than I expected given the price. It's super soft and easy to work with. It has very little stretch, which worked nicely for the projects I had in mind. The yarn is definitely a little splitty, but I frequently work with splitty yarns (they're often softer) so that's no big deal for me. Use a rounded hook or needle and just keep an eye on it.

Best Uses
Comments about 6.50 Comfort:
I am using this yarn to make 3 Dragon blankets. I bought a kit from Herrschner's that came with a pattern/yarn, but the acrylic they sent was very poor quality. I purchased this yarn to use instead and although it's softer, I'm rather disappointed in the quality as well. It splits quite a bit and I have come across 3 to 5 knots in every ball. I'm not even exaggerating. The ends also unravel very easily, making weaving in the ends quite a chore. I purchased about 30 balls to use between 2 blankets and a hat. I won't likely be purchasing this yarn again.
