Dirty
The yarn has multiple dirty patches not noticeable until knitted. It looks like the sweater is dirty, and the patches look like grease. I stopped knitting the sweater until i know whether i can get thebspots out.

Product Description
This new King Cole yarn is made from 100% recycled materials. Available in 10 beautiful subtle colors. This new yarn is perfect for outer garments and ideal for home accessories. Although we recommend a 5mm needle, using a 4 or 4.5mm needle will give a much sturdier finish to your knitting which is ideal for bags and other accessories.

Recycled materials do not make good knitting yarns
This yarn was promoted as soft and warm. I played with it for two, three weeks, but the fabric I made with it did not turn out nice at all. Compared to wool, cotton, bamboo and silk it was harsh, did not hold its s hape well and did not drape nicely. Very disappointing! I ended up pulling out all my work and send the whole lot to the discards place.
Hello, Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that the yarn didn’t have the feel you were expecting. I understand how important texture can be when choosing materials for a project. As noted in the product description, this yarn is best suited for outer garments, home accessories, and projects that benefit from a sturdier finish. If you have a specific project in mind and would like help selecting a yarn that better matches your preferences, please feel free to reach out to me at customerservice@yarn.com. I’d be happy to help you find the right option. Best wishes, Brianna Yarn.com | WEBS www.yarn.com customerservice@yarn.com 1.800.367.9327
