PROS
- Generous 150g ball size significantly reduces the number of joins required in larger projects.
- The 50/50 blend provides the thermal properties of wool with the durability and stitch definition of acrylic.
- Features a sophisticated self-striping effect with painterly, gradual color transitions.
CONS
- The loosely plied structure can be prone to splitting if using sharp-tipped needles or hooks.
- Requires gentle laundering to prevent the wool content from pilling or losing its halo over time.
Full Review
The color changes are stunning and much smoother than other variegated yarns I have used previously.
Incredibly soft to the touch, though I had to be careful not to split the yarn with my crochet hook.
One ball goes a very long way; I managed to complete a small triangular shawl with just a single cake.
