The wonder of Lion Brand Fishermen's Wool is its natural fibers, and natural lanolin which make this yarn pretty much waterproof! Perfect for bulky sweaters and accessories, this yarn has fantastic stitch definition so it will bring out your cables and stitch patterns beautifully. The color palette includes solids, heathers and tweed shades, all undyed, so that you could dye this yarn if you wanted; you could felt it - and it is a fantastic yarn to use for homeware. Cushions and blankets look absolutely stunning in this natural yarn. Worsted weight, this yarn will knit up on US 9 (5.5mm) needles, or crochet on a H (5.00mm) hook.

Yarn as good as it's name! I have knit sweaters using this yarn for my son, my daughter-in-law and my three grand children, and they all love them. When knit, the yarn flows very easily and does not split. I use needles 1.5 mm thicker than suggested, and the product becomes nice and soft. Very warm, too. All in all, quite a lovely yarn to knit, and the product is warm and comfortable to wear.
The yarn is very pretty and knits up well but there is a strong chemical smell on it
