Light and easy to knit

It is very light and easy to knit with. I'm using it for a tabbard. I think it will be warm once it's a garment.

Top notch

The stitch definition on this yarn is fantastic. I'm using Blaze, it's 100% wool and a bit rough rough. When washing the water turned orange, but rinsed clear and the yarn blooms like others have mentioned.
