I like the feel of this wool. As a new knitter it is thick enough to make a variety of things with and at a cost that if I mess it up it is not painful.
This beautiful new 100% superwash wool yarn comes in a plethora of rich and classic shades suitable for all the family. The patterns supporting this yarn include detailed cabling work typical of Aran weight yarns. Wool Aran is eco-friendly and machine washable.

I like the feel of this wool. As a new knitter it is thick enough to make a variety of things with and at a cost that if I mess it up it is not painful.
King Cole aran wool is very good to knit with as it does not split like some other wools do.
Excellent value-exciting to get a real wool yarn for such a good price. Knits up well and lovely colours available.
The wool seems to be good quality and reasonably priced. The range of colours was fantastic.
Excellent yarn easy to work with and lovely colours. Washes well too
Knitting a Aran pattern and wool feels good but first ball had 2 breaks in it. However, I still like the fact it is 100% wool so would use this again. Not yet finished garment so do not know how well it will wash or wear. Was very happy how quickly the wool arrived.
The yarn is lovely and soft. Works up well. No knots. Very good value for money
Lovely soft yarn which knits well. A good yarn for winter warmth
Lovely wool but in one ball there were at least 5 tied off breaks in quick succession. This was at a sleeve cuff and not a nice result.
It is very reasonably priced. Knits up well. I haven’t washed it yet. More expensive yarn is softer but I think this will wear well
