It’s my go too yarn for knitting.
I have used it many times. I am told it washes well and can be used for any new arrivals. The print I used was rag doll, but I am not too keen on the coloring for my project. I like the plain Bambino.

Excellent quality baby yarn. So soft and lovely to work with. Beautiful choice of colours, plain and prints. Always my go to yarn for baby blankets, clothes and toys.
Not great, the yarn is coiled so it stretches a lot. I found it really hard to work with, but I'm a beginner so what do I know. The stretch in the strand was super annoying in trying to gauge the right tension, and it made frogging and re-doing stitches annoying too. And it's not like it's especially soft or pretty, so I would rather use a different better yarn (and cheaper too) to make baby stuff.
I actually used this yarn for tying a quilt I had sewn. The colors matched perfectly and I am extremely happy with how it turned out. I will in all likelihood shop again when trying to match a quilt I’ve sewn. Service and shipment were great! Highly recommend 👍
I knit baby hats for the NICU unit from which I retired. I try to find interestimg colors that would be fun for the mother's of these babies. Pink and blue are either the ribbing on the hats or the body of the hat, the varigated is the opposit of the solid color. The Bambino pronts was excellent for the hats snd so soft. Thanks for this great yarn.
Awesome baby yarn I use for hats. Lovely colorways ~ soft, baby hues. Consistent texture with few, if any knots. Love this yarn!
I chose this wool because it was recommended and it knits up beautifully. And the wonderful array of shades as well is wonderful
Lovely yarn. Used for a pocket inside the king Cole chunky. This has the same softness and slight sheen so ideal to use together. Very pleased with knit.
Knits to double knit tension - gives an interesting finish to the knitted garment - plus washes and dries really well
This yarn knits up beautifully and the colours are outstanding. Very soft for babies.
