I’ve knit a shawl with this and love how it feels after wet blocking! It’s so much softer than you might expect, and the colors are very rich!

The color is beautiful but I expected a much softer yarn since the fiber content is merino, cashmere, and silk. I can't make the scarf I was planning as the pattern (not very intricate) did not have a good definition. I blocked a swatch and it did get a little softer but not what I would expect. I will not purchase this yarn again. I will however, continue to shop at WEBS.
Using this yarn for a sweater and it is a delight to work with.
I needed this yarn to finish a cardigan, and I always go on Webs site to find what I need
Great yarn for colorwork!
