This yarn was used to knit a baby rabbit toy. It was easy to knit and looked great.

I just love the cotton yarns from blue sky.  They are really soft and have been perfect for my friends who are allergic to animal fibers.

I just finished a baby sweater with this yarn and I absolutely LOVE IT!  It is a quick knit, and creates a wonderfully nubby fabric.  Organic colorgrown cotton is the best gift you can give to a new baby, and this brand is my new favorite!  Plus, because the skeins are 100g rather than 50g, I was able to get 2 1/2 newborn sweaters from 3 skeins!

This yarn is one of the best I have ever knit with!  I made a baby blanket that I am sure the baby will never want to be without.  I had no trouble with the yarn AT ALL.  The finished product needed only minimal blocking.  I did not do a gauge swatch first and so needed more yarn than anticipated.  I ended up with two different dye lots.  There is no discernable difference in the color.  I would recommend it to any level knitter!

 So soft, but a lot of breakage 5 of 10

I mostly enjoyed working with this yarn.  It's super soft and I love that it's organic and undyed.  However, I had a lot of breakage while knitting with it.  In some sections the yarn broke repeatedly -- 4 or 5 times in the course of only a few dozen stitches.  I would recommend it, but with reservations.

 Blue Sky organic cotton yarn is the best! 6 of 10

This truly is a wonderful cotton yarn. My sister will only "allow" her baby to wear soft, natural fibers, so I knitted a cardigan in the organic cotton yarn in sage. She loves it, and the baby wears it all the time. The cotton is soft and wears well. I was nervous about drying it, but it held up well and made me proud. I am now knitting two rollneck pullovers in indigo for two lucky little toddlers!

I just love this yarn!  It is so soft, I could not stop knitting!  I am sure it will feel wonderful against the baby's skin. I am using it for the baby sweater in the infant set from blue sky alpaca.  I would recommend that as well.

 Ensconced in Organic Cotton 8 of 10

Totally delightful to knit with and a luxurious finish. BSA Organic Cotton entranced me so that the project I was knitting (cabled baby blanket) has turned into a piece I can't bear to part with. My fellow knittinistas, several friends, my husband and my 5 year old daughter all begged me to keep it. Since the gauge is more bulky worsted than the worsted it is listed as the knit the blanket much bigger than anticipated (my bad for not doing a swatch either!) I decided to get more (in Nut) to make a longer blanket for my fam. It is so soft and shows the cables beautifully. Sure to be a treaured heirloom, I'm sure! Sometimes knitting a test swatch can work to one's advantage ;) I also have in the Poppy, Lotus and Cumin. Rich colors that make any project special.

I loved knitting with this yarn. It was perfect for the baby hats & sweaters I  made. I'm just sorry they're finished-hated to put the yarn down.It washed up & blocked beautifully.Can't wait to start another project with this yarn.

A marvelous cotton yarn in a gratifying weight.  Super soft and almost silky, it balances perfect stitch definition with forgiveness of less-than-perfect moments in your knitting.  Handles textured stitches with aplomb.  Love the colors!  This yarn makes for the kind of project that you're eager to pick up again, which is quite a feat for those of us who get distracted easily.
