Made a shawl for a friend. Didn't have a pattern. Knitted it on size 3 3/4 needles. Used 3 X 50g Hand washed it before I gave it to her. She genuinely loves it.

Good service as ever
Gorgeous soft yarn. Didn't choose this colour but the olive / purple one. Made a lovely pair of fingerless gloves. Yarn went much further than I anticipated and I only used 1 ball purchased. Knits into a light weight garment.
Delighted
This knits beautifully. It is soft and the colours blend beautifully into each other to create a lovely design. The pattern is straightforward.
Loved my yarn
This rico melange yarn is my favorite yarn, beautiful colors, easy to crochet with an easy to frog. I made this poncho with the this yarn an I love it.
Speedy delivery
The yarn is lovely to work with and soft. I’m usually allergic to wearing anything with wool in it but I’m hoping I can get away with this. As it’s a jacket I can wear something underneath. I love the colour range within the yarn itself and the way the pattern develops.
Fast access to good quality - Thank you.
This yarn, despite being an acrylic/wool mix, has all the feel of wool and the consistency of a sturdy spun yarn. Only once or twice did I have to untangle a slight inclination to ply itself.....
Quick delivery as usual. The yarn is knitting very nicely and the colours blend well. One slight problem is that the yarn thickness varies quite a lot, becoming surprisingly thin in places, although this doesn't seem to affect the overall result. I would use this yarn again.
Wonderful service !
Lovely soft wool that is knitting up very nicely and with a blend of soft pastel colours. Am pleased so far with how it looks.
Always come back!
Lovely, subtle color changes. Very soft. Knits crochets beautifully.
Excellent as always
I love using this wool for socks and hats, soft and easy to knit with, colours are lovely
