"I’m concerned that if I say about the quality of the wool, everyone would want it! So I’ll do it anyway. Yes, the wool can split, it is the nature of the ply, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. I rarely have issues with it splitting and the knit is beautiful, easy to tension and looks amazing when it’s done, stitches well defined and even.. It is my favourite.."

Beautiful colors for a baby blanket

I love the lovely heathered colors. It has no knots in the skeins, and it softens beautifully after blocking. I made Umaro baby blanket.
