Review summary
Most reviews praise the soft, light feel of this baby alpaca yarn and how it knits up. Complaints are uncommon: one reviewer found the skeins tangle unless wound into a ball, and another noted a small colour range.
Summarized by AI
Lovely wool. Would give it 5 stars if it came in a ball, but as it comes in a skein, I can only give it 4 at most. If you fail to wind the wool into a ball (which can be difficult to do as it is not always easy to find an end and sometimes the strands get muddled), you can end up with a tangled mass of wool, that takes -hours- to unravel and gets matted. Be warned!
The baby alpaca 3ply is lovely to knit with and very light. I ended up having to order more, as stupidly I hadn't taken into account that you get less yardage per oz for 3ply than you do with 2ply and my 60+ yr old pattern is for 2ply. However, both lots were the same dye number. Yarn comes in hanks rather than balls, but an extra pair of hands or the back of a chair sorts that out very quickly. Would definitely order more. Just need more babies.
Lovely yarn but only a small choice of colours and limited quantities in the ones I wanted to purchase
Good value for money and good quality wool
beautiful feel and knits up well
Very fine and harder to knit, but lovely soft light finish
