Versatile yarn for many projects
I loved the combination of soft natural wool with acrylic for making blankets. I made several blankets with different sizes, including Norah’s Vintage Afghan. The yarn was excellent to work with.

Love the feel and color. Knits like a dream. Stitch definition superb. Finished item is soft and holds its shape well. Only complaint is the tangles I created when rolling the skein into a ball the old fashioned way — by hand.
The wool is wonderful to knit with. My knitting may not be perfect but the wool covers my sins.
This is the 3rd jumper (pullover sweater) that I have knit using Ultra Wool and it definitely won't be my last. Honestly, it doesn't feel like much in the skein, but it is forgiving to knit with, incredibly versatile as far as gauge, and - once washed and blocked - it softens and takes on a delicious softness. The range of colours makes it a great choice for colourwork and the heathers look like "the expensive stuff" when worked with allover ribbing, cables &/or lace. I will continue to use it...
This yarn is a joy to work with. I bought it to make a baby shower gift as the parents-to-be wanted only natural fibers and this fit the bill perfectly. Will definitely buy it again! Anne
Only the top of top quality from WEBS! It’s good to know the difference between cheap and luxury yarns, and WEBS is my go-to source for the best in brand, color selection, fiber and weight options.
Soft but substantial and easy to handle and work with. I'm using this yard for both a sweater and hats and I'm very happy with it.
My son has worn his sweater in the bedrock washable 100% wool and it has held up perfectly. No pilling!
Lovely soft wool. Shows off a cable nicely. Haven’t finished the sweater yet so I’m not sure how it will block, but so far I’m loving it!
This yarn is great to work with and not too expensive. I'm also a fan that they had the exact color I was looking for (Sour Cherry). My sweater is coming out great!
