Great yarn
I finished a Sophie Hood using this yarn & I'm very pleased. It's soft and hold stitches well. No fuzzing or piling at all. Already have more skeins of this yarn in my cart to purchase!

Customer Reviews
Poor quality yarn
Two of the scans I ordered had a ton of cuts in the yarn, and where there weren't cuts, the spinning was pulling apart. I had to trash both scans and order more yarn to make up for it.
Dear Amy, we're sorry to hear that you experienced issues with the yarn. While manufacturers do their best to minimise knots, up to three knots per ball are generally considered normal. However, if you found more than this, please get in touch and let us know. We'd be happy to look into this.

Great value for a quality merino yarn in gorgeous color options. It’s been a perfect fit for the PetitKnits Stockholm hat on size 6 / 4 mm needles (held together with a mohair). I have already purchased more for another project!
4 Stars
The yarn has a vibrant color and a very nice feel. It's easy to work with and the strands do not come apart easily. I like it.

Beautiful yarn, easy to work with and colors work well with my project.

I like the feel of it…but the color inventory is too limited….and has been for several months. It knits up well…good for hats, cowls, mittens

The yarn is great but the price is high. I would love to make an afghan with it but I think it will end up being a vest.
