Lovely yarn and a joy to knit with! Made my 4 year old granddaughter a cute "Elf" hat. Held this yarn with a strand of Katia Gatsby Lux for sparkle!

It was hard to get used to, and you have to be really careful to not let it split, since it's a not-twisted yarn, whatever that's called. The colors are gorgeous, and it's nice and squishy - you'd never think it's acrylic. I hope it doesn't pill, since it's a little fuzzy. I'm using a size 7 needle, for a dense fabric for my emotional support chickens. Next, I'm holding it with sock yarn for a Skeino Operetta shawl. Hope it works! The kid-silk in the original kit has just about disintegrated.
I use this yarn specifically to make the emotional support chickens. The colors are beautiful and it works up very well. My only complaint is that I have to rewind it into a cake after I get it because the loops are so big as you knitting big loops of it pull off and I have your stop my work to untangle these loops that come off
Shephards Delight- I want to order more but I can't have the option. It is out of stock and has been for a couple of weeks now. I want to order more. King Cole Cottagespun Chunky
Have to be very careful casting on as it easily pulls apart. Splits a lot and not easy to knit with. Not looking forward to trying to sew it up
This wool is very easy to knit with. The colour range is very good.
Im using it to make a comfort support chicken and it is easy to use!
Crochets up quickly and the colors are marvelous
This yarn is so soft and easy to use. Love working with this yarn!
It works well for knitting comfort support chickens.
