Nice Yarn
I didn’t expect to find knots in the middle of the balls thankfully I spotted it before I started the row! Colour choice was great and it is knitting up nicely

Stylecraft Life DK is a yarn that works up beautifully, and customers say it is a pleasure to have in hand from the first stitch.
One reviewer put it simply: "I couldn’t love this yarn more!"
The range is wide, from solid shades to dappled tones, flecks and marls. Reviewers describe a large choice of colours and say the shades look beautifully saturated. One buyer enjoyed the effect of the flecks of different colours in Deep Purple, which adds interest without overwhelming a pattern.
Customers say it knits up nicely and crochets very well. Many describe it as pleasant to handle, and one reviewer said it "knits up beautifully". The finished fabric feels soft to the touch.
Reviewers say it washes well and keeps its shape, and one buyer noted that it isn’t pilling. Many customers mention that the wool content gives a finished piece a good-looking, lasting feel.
Customers have worked it up into Jane Crowfoot blankets and Janie Crow designs, including the Persian Tiles and Mystical Lanterns patterns. Blankets and cosy crochet projects appear again and again in reviews, making this a natural choice for throws and other larger pieces.

Always reliable and does what it says on the label!
This is a step up from stylecraft special and is a wool mix, it is very nice to work with. And a large choice of colours.
I like this yarn a lot. It does sometimes split a little but not badly. It feels soft and isn't pilling. The look is very nice. I thought I had purchased enough but ran short. I had to reorder a skein and was worried the dye lot difference would be noticeable. Imagine my surprise when I got the same dye lot :)
I couldn’t love this yarn more! It’s soft, the colors are great and it handles beautifully! I’m making Janie Crow’s Mystical Lanterns pattern. It’s fun to crochet and is going to bd gorgeous and soft!
I bought this as it is the suggested yarn to use in the project I am making. It feels like 100% wool but makes up soft with no stress on the hands. The colors are almost identical to the photos. I have not washed it yet as I’ve just started. Love Crafts ships promptly.
Good value yarn, pleasant to knit and goes a long way. Good colour range.
I have used this yarn many times. I like the wool content as it keeps the garment looking good
Lovely quality wool. Arrived quickly and. Safely. Very pleased
Nice to use. Reasonably priced. Good range of colours with enough wool content for warmth and memory.
