Great choice of yarn and excellent service
This yarn is sooooo soft. I made a summer cardigan with it. The colour is very pretty too, a pale blue-lilac. Yarn hangs well. It does split so you have to be careful but that's the nature of the yarn

Practical, prompt, value for money
Colour of yarn, a bluegreen, looked lighter on screen than in reality. That's the 'fun' of buying online. Doesn't actually matter, _this_ time. It's a multi-ply stranded yarn and inclined to be a bit splitty, but is otherwise knitting up well. Being cotton/bamboo viscose it's ideal for knitting in WARM weather.
Took a minute to figure out how to prevent splitting. Once I got the hang of it its very easy to work with. Beautiful colors.
Good range for crochet, can be expensive
Great, light weight yarn in a deep black. Splits VERY easily so a bit tricksy (I was using hook size 4). Doesn’t lend itself to a flawless finish on more intricate designs. I used it for parts of a garment - moss stitch was mostly fine, but on the crochet lace sleeves the splitting was more of an issue and not particularly fixable (hopefully not to noticeable)
Beautiful soft and defining yarn
Beautiful soft and defining yarn
The yarn was lovely and arrived in a timely manner. I'm very pleased with the results.
Good colour, but not so easy to knit with.
Though the mixture of cotton and bamboo sounds ideal, it is not that easy to knit with as the strands do separate out as you knit. It does feel nice and the colour is pretty.
i love this company!
I love knitting and wearing this stellar yarn in summer!
easy knit bamboo cotton yarn
