My current favorite for worsted weight washable yarn. Very versatile and great heathered colors.

I like the way this yarn knits up. I am making a shawl and next time may purchase something a little heavier weight-wise so the Vintage Chunky might be in my future! Great color...

Disregard the previous, the knots were from short pieces to tie the yarn together! Totally my bad!

Purchased two skeins at two different times -- both have 3~4 knots in them. Disappointing. On the flip side, it's really soft.

This is my absolute go-to yarn for kids knits and knits for anyone with sensitive skin. Has the wool content for warmth but is so soft and washable. Deep, rich colors too. Love it!

This is going to be the worsted yarn that I turn to again and again. It's washable, durable, soft, easy to work with, affordable, and gorgeous. You wouldn't believe how many times knitters ask about this yarn while it's on my needles. When I say it's Vintage they are shocked. I suppose they are expecting me to say it's a super pricey yarn, I have no idea, but I'm sticking with it!

This is going to be one of my new go to yarns for washable wool/acrylic with my projects that need that kind of care. Beautiful deep color, soft, and easy on your hands while knitting.
