I love the finish of this cotton--it's not rough, nor does it "fuzz up"--and it comes in a variety of colors. I do prefer to knit it on a slightly larger needle than many of patterns for it suggest, as doing so provides a more flexible fabric. Am currently knitting a Cotton Glace pattern--a summer vest--from Rowan Magazine 75. Hope Rowan keeps making this yarn.

Cotton Glace Yarn
Love this yarn it knits up beautifully. Nice yarn for summer. It washes really well and have knitted 2 previous garments using it. Delivery is quick and the website is easy to use showing clear pictures of products.
Go with who you know and trust!
Excellent service from Lovecraft and at the right price. Had originally bought this Rowan Glace yarn direct from Rowan to use on one of their patterns which is not knitting up as a '4 ply' as it indicates. Therefore I needed more yarn which I ordered from Rowan using the only reference on the ball band RG873 which is soft green. They sent me the wrong shade RG870 a soft blue, now the yarn is no longer available at a sale price with Rowan and no way to complain! So I turned to tried and trusted...
Cotton Glace knits up nicely. However, I usually have to use a slightly larger needle than recommended both to get the suggested row guage as well as to have a slightly less tight fabric than I like. Colors are nice. Yarn keeps its sheen pretty well; doesn't pill like some other cotton yarns.
Best source for natural fibres.
Beautiful yarn with a lovely sheen. Knits beautifully.
Great Company
I love this yarn but wish they would have some more light colours. It knits up so well and looks so good.
I love Lovecrafts!
Honestly this stuff is lovely, super colours and nice to work with, but it is marked on the site as a DK and it definitely isn't. It is much thinner, I'd say it is about equivalent to a four-ply.
Excellent service
They are fantastic no more pain in hands they are so smooth I love them
Exceeded expectations
Beautiful drape and good stitch h definition. Added to that the yarn was on sale. What’s not to love?
Excellent service
have purchased to much stash to keep sane during lockdown. Rowan cotton being a favourite as stitch definition is excellent and like the choice of colours.
