Good service but dreadful yarn

I’m seriously disappointed in this yarn. I ordered it to make a summer but it’s just awful - it’s really thin so doesn’t knit evenly even on smaller needles and it’s so harsh. Even if I persevere and make the garment, it’ll be unwearable. Unless I want to make an awful lot of potholders or string bags, it’s going to be a complete waste of money!

I generally don't like knitting with cotton but this yarn is easy to use. Colors are good and projects are coming out just fine.

Best product I ever seen!

I crochet with this yarn, and it was really fun to use. It feels soft and feels like real cotton, which is hard for me to find. I will continue to use this yarn for all of my future projects!

Great service and choice

This is much thinner than Rico DK cotton and silkier, lovely yarn but is not compatible with my project. I would not recommend if using other DK cotton yarns. Did not return as it costs as much to send back as the yarn did. :-(

Will always recommend

Great quality yarn that is mercerised to give a beautiful sheen finish. I used this yarn only to crochet tops. There is also a good selection of colors to choose from.
