VG!
This yarn splits a bit because of the 50 % cotton but with the 50% merino it is a wonderful yarn for sweaters. I'm using this to make a sweater for my son who lives in Louisiana. I feel this yarn is a light DK.

Lovecraft's service is excellent !
Used as substitute for Debbie Bliss Mia. Very happy with results. First time using cotton mix yarn, pleasure to work with.
Beautiful yarn, great price & quick delivery
This is more of a light worsted weight. Very soft and perfect for baby patterns.
It is very nice yarn - soft and drapes well. I used it for a baby blanket.
Have not knitted with this yarn yet ,but found it very pleasant on the touch( smooth), will use n 4-5 US needles( I'm a loose knitter). Ordered color white o3, very nice elegant white, would call it more milk or soft white, not a cream.
Very soft and nice to knit with - yarn can split a bit but not a problem
Always a super service!!!
Beautiful yarn - haven’t used it yet as it’s for my stash to knit toys for Christmas
Excellent Service....
Nice colour, crochet well very soft however it dos split and not enough on one roll.
A good experience
I had no prior experience with the yarn, but I'm pleased with the way it works up. I chose it for the blend of cotton and wool. It's not too stuff like all cotton, and not too springy like a lot of wools and wool blends, just right for my project.
Great service - great prices!
I loved the way this yarn gave my stitches definition. My only issue with it was it was a bit splitty. However, my baby blanket turned out beautifully and the yarn blocked out very well.
