The yarn is beautifully soft and the colours wonderful. Delivery to me was great. I haven’t started knitting it up yet—that’s a fall project.

I can't begin to say how truly amazing the colors are of this yarn

I can't begin to say how truly amazing the colors are of this yarn. Superb quality and softness as well. I will definitely be ordering more of this perhaps in fingering. I will also be ordering more of other colours.

The colour is so glorious and it feels wonderful

The colour is so glorious and it feels wonderful. My plan is to make a pair of Toe Up Larch Peds by Laura Nelkin with it. They are short socks with optional arch shaping and I am keen to try them. I think they will look fabulous in my Mycelium Bloom fingering.
