Great quality yarn - I bought 3 different colours to make a jumper with. Really easy to knit with and fantastic colours
Only difficulty is deciding on what colour to get - I was lucky though! Don't know if this is something which is practicable, but it would be great if purchasers could request a sample to be sure of what the colour is really like - online pictures are good, but difficult to be sure of exact shade from a picture!
This 4 ply wool is easy to knit with. It doesn’t divide into threads or strands but stays twined together. It’s a lovely feel and knits up beautifully. There were no joining knots in the balls and I certainly would use it again.
I've not yet used this wool, however I have used the wool before and it crochet's perfectly. I made a beautiful shawl from it last time.
Exactly as described on the site, beautiful colour (emperor), is knitting up well.
Knits up very nicely with good stitch definition.
Would have given 5 stars but tends to 'split' a little when knitting up.
Knitted neatly and the colour was bright and clear.
The wool colour was exactly the shade I had hoped and it knits up beautifully. There was such a choice, it was better than choosing in a store.
