I have used this brand before and tend to buy it before other brands. It is easy to use, handles well and rarely has knots in the yarn, which I find is becoming more usual with some other brands. It washes well and keeps its colour, a good thing for baby garments or blankets.

The best supplier of knitting wool on line I have found.

A lovely range of colours for baby knitting. It is useful that new mothers can wash the item in the washing machine and then pop it in the tumble dryer. It knits up beautifully like much more expensive wool, and the finished item is lovely and soft for a new baby to wear.
