I like the soft, beautiful colours. I find it easy to knit with. I finished a scarf and have started a cardigan. It’s really warm and drapes beautifully.

Nice wool
Good price for the wool. Disappointed that 2 balls had been knotted in the length, not what i would have expected for a higher price yarn

Great customer service
The Willow Lark poetry is a gorgeous soft yarn in lovely subtle shades. I have bought it for a baby jacket which I haven’t knit as yet. The Katia Evita yarn is as expected as I have used before to knit as a gift, it knits up wonderfully and gives a true glamorous look and feel.
Great company, Quality products
Knitted up beautifully, really easy to work with and no snapping. I used it because I have sensitivity to synthetic fibres and I didn't show any signs of irritation whilst working it. Would deffo use again.
Excellent service
It is a dream to knit with, it grows quickly. This is my second batch of this wool, I took the last lot on holiday and knitted around activities. Ihad the cardigan finished within a couple of weeks
