Review summary

Most reviewers praise this yarn as soft, easy to knit or crochet, and pleasingly subtle in its shimmer, often for baby items. Complaints are uncommon. A few mention the yarn splitting, and some find the shimmer less sparkly than they expected.

Loving Lovecrafts

Knitted and crocheted up well. Shimmer showing up well. I choose the Baby Pink and experimented making up a crochet boater hat and a frilled edged scarf. Lovely for baby girls. The wool is easy to handle making an enjoyable craft experience

No need to look anywhere else to buy wool! Service second to none!

Lovely baby yarn great colours! The wool is nice to handle and knit and produced a lovely soft garment when knitted! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND buying this for baby garments the wool is inexpensive compared to a lot of others but knits up as well if not better than more expensive yarn! Very happy with the quality!

Great Experience

Very soft. Nice shimmer but not too much so can still use for unisex. Knits up nicely for baby blanket pattern I’ve been using for years. Would recommend.

Excellent!

I used it for crochet, very soft and easy to handle. I used a 3.5mm hook and 3 balls of wool to make these 2 angel tops for my 3 and 6 year old grandaughters.

Another perfect delivery

Chose this for a slightly sparkly baby knitted blanket and not disappointed. Yarn is soft with a slight shimmer and will keep our little one snuggly when they arrive.
