Summarized by AI
A yarn that is easy to use and crochet with. It rarely splits and is soft to the touch. The colour navy is a really good Navy being bright.
Lovely yarn, very even and gives a wonderful stitch definition. A joy to knit with, an absolute steal as it was discounted when purchased
I have knitted with this yarn a few times and it’s just perfect. I knitted baby and toddler cricket jumpers for the younger supporters of our local cricket team in a cable pattern and they look great and are much in demand.
I like this yarn a lot. The colors are great! I'm crocheting a blanket for my sister and the result is thick and luxurious. I wish the yarn was a bit softer but the resulting blanket feels wonderful and I know my sister is going to love it!
I've been looking for a DK yarn for sock making as my usual go-to yarn has been in short supply. After trying a variety of brands, I have settled on Valley Yarns Superwash DK. It's feels soft and silky, bouncy to knit and not too prone to splitting. I like the variety of colors, too.
Lovely colours and easy to knit with. I almost ran out of wool because I had to make it slightly longer in the body. If I order this again I would add an extra 50g ball.
Very soft to the touch, and I can't wait to start my sweater!
The yarn was squishy and soft. Absolutely beautiful and works up beautifully. I would buy again and again.
This is the second garment I have made with this wool. It is very soft and knits up nicely. Am pleased with the results.
Soft wool. Lovely to knit with. I am making a mitred blanket.
