Well done

This yarn is a dream to work with and to wear. I first used it for a hoodie for a girl who is hyper sensitive to even T-shirt seams, and definitely to wool. She had no reaction to a seamless garment in this yarn. Oh, and the colourways are gorgeous. Matisse Blue next to a green/blue had a silvery sheen.

Lovecrafts excellent service, products and value

Oh I love this product and while I can’t afford to knit up a bigger item. I can for smaller ones. As for another product, managed to get two and a bit headbands AND a tiny Christmas decoration out of this (with a bit left over). It is so soft and lovely to work with. Colour was gorgeous

Reliable supplier

One of my all time favourite yarns. It is so soft, with a lovely sheen and comes in some stunning colours, such as Teal Feather and Matisse Blue. I use it for sweaters, cowls and fingerless gloves. One person, who is so sensitive that wool or even Tshirt seams bother her, found she could wear this next to the skin without irritation. So far I have found only one pattern that did not work well with this yarn. It incorporated a lacy texture that I believe the silk content did not agree with.

Great service, great yarn. I am happy.

This yarn is wonderful, so soft and easy to work with. The color Matisse Blue is stunning. My scarf is absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend the yarn and Lovecrafts.

Ottimo

Filato splendido al tatto, scorrevole nella lavorazione, con una luce impareggiabile donata dalla parte di seta.

Oh tellement doux! Merino et soie, ça vaut la peine. Un charme à tricoter et un beau dégradé de couleur.
