This yarn is a very nice, not mercerized, cotton yarn to work with. I love the subtle botanical dye used to make each color and the fact that you can get some of the colors speckled is nice. I am currently crocheting a shawl with this yarn and find it is not as stiff as other cotton yarns I have worked with and I like the subtle color changes from one color to another.

Great range of yarns and patterns.
This is a beautiful yarn and one of my favourites for knitting garments for a baby. It is organic and the dyes are natural so it is very gentle for a baby’s delicate skin. The stitch definition is good and it is lovely to knit with. Highly recommended.

Great service.
Apart from occasional knots in it which are always frustrating it’s a lovely yarn. No splitting when knitting In the end used held double for a knitted baby blanket then used the leftovers to weave a couple of nursing cloths. Lovely handle (I’m not usually keen on knitting cotton). Does suck the moisture from your hands a bit so plenty of nice hand cream needed. The fleck is quite subtle in a good way.
Lovely product. Thank you
