Customers say Valley Yarns Hampden is a real pleasure to knit with. One reviewer put it simply: "Beautiful yarn.
Colour is a strong point. Knitters working colourwork also note "excellent definition in colour work", so patterned projects tend to show clearly.
One says it has a "lovely heavy drape", and another reports that it "blocks up great", which suits wraps and shawls where drape matters.
For a special project that you want to enjoy from the first row to the last, Hampden is a rewarding choice.

Review summary
Most reviewers praise the yarn's softness, lovely colours and how well it knits and blocks. Complaints are uncommon. A few mention stock running out or a discontinued colour, and one reviewer found the dusty rose darker than the website shows.
Summarized by AI
Hampden yarn is an absolute treat, it is very soft to handle and has great stitch definition with a lovely sheen. I am using it for Tracery, the cabling is coming out really well. I would say it is DK/worsted, I can’t wait to wear the finished product.
I love the lovely soft yarn. It is great to work with. I am using it for a short sleeve jumper.
Beautiful yarn, both in colour and texture. Incredibly soft and warm, with a lovely heavy drape, and excellent definition in colour work.
I've knit and blocked a sample. This is a soft and luxurious yarn and I'm looking forward to making a sweater with it.
Have just finished a beautiful large wrap and this yarn is a joy to knit with. It blocks up great as well
Beautiful yarn. Soft and sumptious to knit with. It made a gorgeous snuggly jumper for my grandson who loves it.
This yarn is beautiful! Great color and super, super soft.
Great yarn, I am crocheting 5 shawls for my nieces winter wedding.
A lovely soft yarn with a nice lustre. Can’t wait to start knitting it up. I’m pleased with the colour and texture. It will work well with my me made wardrobe.
I didnt start project with this yarn. But love softness. The only little disappointment that dusty rose yarn is much darker than showing on website. But I still like it.
