I actually get the right guage for the pattern with this yarn. That’s so nice! It knits well, doesn’t split or catch on needles and looks great.
I purchased this yarn specifically for knitting a crib size baby blanket for an expected grandchild. The weight knits up quickly and stitch definition is good. The color in chamomile coordinates with the nursery color scheme and is gender neutral. Like that it has natural merino wool but is machine washable too. Photo shows blanket in progress but getting close to completion.
I was disappointed with this yarn due to it's "harsh" texture. I use superwash wool for many of my projects and so far this yarn does not measure up. When I looked at the country of origin, after receiving my order, and saw that it was from India the quality made sense. Do not recommend this yarn.
Good weight and hand feel, nice stitch definition. WIP of blanket for new grandbaby due in spring.
Soft, smooth, round yarn that holds up well. Lovely colors. I used it for a baby blanket.
Beautiful yarn. I bought this on sale, and went back for more in all the colors. Made a lovely, elegant baby blanket.
I made a lovely baby blanket with this yarn.
I am using this yarn to make a lovely baby blanket. It is soft, with lovely stitch definition, and the four colors I purchased are gorgeous.
Yarn is a beautiful color. Using this for a cardigan. Yarn is soft & squishy in stockinette stitch on size 10 1/2 needles.
