This is a lovely soft yarn to work with and the colour changes are very pretty. The reason I’ve given it three stars is because the yarn changes from thin to thick, sometimes very thin and then very thick! I don’t think I’ve ever had that in a yarn. It doesn’t really have an adverse effect on the overall look of the blanket I crocheted on a 4 hook, but at £5.99 for an 85gm ball, unless Lion Brand address this, I don’t think I’d buy it again.
