Review summary

Most reviewers praise the wool's softness, even knitting and self-patterning colours, and many say it suits baby items. Some say the strands split while knitting, and a few mention knots or joins in individual balls. Complaints are uncommon.

Soft and versatile for baby gifts

It knits evenly. It's very soft, and the random dying knits like fair isle. It offers great value. I use it for baby cardigans, especially good for when you don't know if the new baby is going to be a boy or girl. I like the beautiful gift for new parents; they were so pleased. I certainly meant to give it 5 stars.

great supplier

Really pretty colour combinations and beautiful soft wool which is especially suitable for baby items like blankets and cardigans. It knits really well but you do have to be careful not to split the strands

Quick purchase and very efficient delivery

Wonderful yarn to knit with and people stop my grandson in the road to say what a wonderful patterned knit he has on when it is only the yarn that has produced a fabulous design. This is my third jumper being made with this yarn. Such fun to knit up.

fantastic service and gorgeous yarn

I love king Cole wool, it is absolutely gorgeous. The yarn is of a high quality and knits up beautifully like a professional. I cannot believe the cost for this wool as it is very fair. King Cole have so much variations of colours, Yarn and patterns

Quality issues with the wool

There were a lot of knots in each ball where the wool had been tied not split. I had to double knit when I got to that bit. I'm using it for a cardigan for my new grandson. It's ok, but I know there are lumps in it now.

Hi Carrie, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about the knots. A small number of knots can occur during yarn production, with up to three knots per ball generally considered normal. However, if you feel the number of knots you found was excessive, please get in touch with us so we can look into this further and help.

Excellent service

I've always used King Cole Cherish for knitting for the premature babies in our hospital in Belfast. I find it a delight to knit with and it's so soft when knit up and the colours are so pretty. Our wool shop in the village has closed. Hence the reason I'm shopping online. I have shopped with you before.

Certainly helped me during lock down

My first experience with the patterned wool, very impressed., Didn't expect the patterned knitting when only doing plain stocking stitch. The grandchildren love them. Like the printable patterns, easy to follow
