Purchased to complete the 5th of 5 sweaters after running just short of this natural, undyed wool. The wool runs true to gauge and hand washes and blocks beautifully after a Euclan bath. The color was a surprisingly good match to 8 skeins purchased about 10 years ago that had been sitting in my stash. Success! All 5 oversized unisex sweaters completed and gifted or designated for charity. Thank you! As a plus, Webs customer service helped with the return and replacement of a skein mistakenly...

It takes about 7 skeins of eco + to weave a blanket on an 8/4 cotton warp. Tight, plain weave, with a double overhand starter line, knotted at both ends. I'm looking for an ultra- violet eco+

This yarn is a work horse not only is it soft for 100 % wool it has beautiful stitch definition. There are many color choices from natural to dyed . ECO WOOL is hands down one of my favorite yarns , its lusted as bulky but works up well for patterns that call for heavy worsted or Aran . I would highly recomend to anyone for sweaters , hats ,mittens slippers and blankets .

I have used ECO wool for several blankets. It is soft and warm, knits up quickly. Lots of yardage in each skein. You can knit a nice size throw with just four skeins.

I bought the yarn because it has several complimentary colors. I needed to hold 2 strands together for the pattern. I found the yarn too thin to be considered a true bulky weight yarn I was firced to hold 3 strands together (4 would have been better) and reduce the needle size from 17 to 15. To really make the yarn work I should have reduced the needle size to 13. I liked the large amount of yardage in each skein and the fact that it's all undyed . If the weight doesn't matter for your project...

I love Cascade Eco and Eco + wool. I use it several times a year for afghans for gifts and donations to local charity auctions. My only complaint is that in the past 18 months or so, the stock at Webs is unreliable. Colors are in short supply, on back order, or otherwise unavailable to see in person. Please, please, please make it worthwhile to come to the store to see it in person, as colors are not always authentic on line
