I love this yarn for socks. Very soft and hard wearing. It comes in beautiful colors, knits up beautifully on size 1 US needles. I knit many pairs of socks and wear them daily with clogs or without shoes inside and in my opinion socks knit with Amble hold up much longer than socks knitted with 75/25 or 80/20 yarn . I also knitted a Musselburgh hat with 2 colors and it is super soft and warm. The yarn holds its shape well.
I'm giving 4 stars only because I have not yet had a chance to knit the socks for which I purchased the yarn. This is a soft and luxurious feeling fiber, well spun and plied, and it wound quickly from my swift with no snags or tangles, feels smooth slipping through my fingers, and I am looking forward to actually knitting with it. The colors (Blackbeck and Saddleback) were accurately represented on the site.
Quick service and delivery even over a holiday. Company made extra effort to clarify the address. I can hardly wait to start my project.
