Love this wool, I have knitted a few things with different colours, it washes great and can be tumble dried. As it’s chunky it knits up quickly too! The pattern was king Cole and very easy to read. The only negative was that the pattern picture didn’t show the colour of the wool accurately. I bought the same colour (Miami) as I loved it but it was a LOT darker than colour on the pattern, I was disappointed about that 😏

Excellent yarn. Nice for me to knit as a beginner and beautifully soft. The ordering and delivery process were easy and efficient so I didn't lose interest before the yarn appeared.
Love love crafts!
Lovely yarn with mixed colours. Easy to work. I will be back for more to make something else with this yarn.
Satisfied customer
King Cole chunky and knots up lovely warm and soft and my granddaughter was over the moon with her poncho.
The yellow packages arriving on my doorstep give me a much-needed mood lift
Good soft workable stuff, makes good hats and scarves with subtle colour blends.
Best place for yarn
Beautiful colour yarn that is self striping into a fairisle like pattern. Makes me eager to knit more to see the pattern develop. Feels lovely and soft.
Lovely yarn. Will use it again.
Lovely yarn, knits up beautifully. I had to amend the needle size recommended on my pattern but that’s probably due to my tension. One knot found out of three balls used so far.
