Summarized by AI
I like the cost, but it's slightly less than I expected. I knit for charity so this was a good opportunity to be even more cost effective.
I'm using it for my favorite to make blankets. Great.
I like the color and the composition of the yarn. I'm using it for a crocheted blanket.
I ordered the sandy beige yarn. It’s beautiful yarn and so soft and perfect for the blanket I’m making. However, based of the name and the picture I was expecting beige yarn, but it is grey as you can see in the picture. Luckily I like it anyway!
The order arrived very quickly. The colour was just what I wanted and the yarn was soft. Obviously, I haven't washed it yet, but I hope that it will be good. I have already finished knitting the sweater, worn it, and received many compliments!
The yarn seems to be perfect for the afghan I am planning. The color is great. I was looking for something that would complement the light shade of grey in my house. The pattern I chose is designed for a color changing yarn, so no problems so far.
Learning to knit using a knitting loom, and this yarn is wonderful to work with ~ very soft and has a nice feel to it ~
