Good products for good prices

One of my favorite Yarns for children's garments and mittens for all. Wears well and is easy care for parents. The colors are great and work well together to use up the last bits in striped mittens. It holds fancier stitches well also

Wool Ease Yarn

The Wool Ease yarn knits up nicely and it's washable and dryable via machine. It was easy to use and I'm relatively new to knitting.

I love Wool-Ease, particularly that it is washable. I've made so many projects with this yarn. I hope that they decide to expand the choice of colours. I've used almost every colour.

I’ll be back!

The yarn is such a great weight and looks beautiful with everything I’ve made. I used it for a scarf for a friend and made two matching ones for her puppies. They’re holding up beautifully!
