Wasn't impressed. Doesn't knit up nearly as nice as the Starbella and Sashay yarns found at Michaels.

This yarn is pretty and soft but it is harder to work with than most ruffled yarns.

much darker than on my monitor-two skeins with many faults-will never buy again. Such a shame as should have made a beautiful scarf.Three stars for Jimmy Beans great service and shipping.

I just opened a package of BN and started knitting-almost before I got it unrolled noticed picks and strings of yarn hanging off-also much darker than it appears on my monitor,which is not usually a problem. In my estimation, it picks as much as yarns with higher viscose content. I did get it on Wool Watcher at a discounted rate and did order 4 balls due to the low yardage, I am a great fan of Katia's yarns in general,but I make scarves to sell and would consider this too inferior for that purpose. Guess I will wear them in the dark at some function. I would not recomend this to any one or buy it again. Would not have given it 3 stars if I weren't such a fan of JBW and love how quickly they ship.

I wish they had told us that we need 2 in order to make 1 scarf. I had to place another order which means more shipping$$$ and waiting for it to arrive to finish the scarf. it is beautiful I have the pale purple...

this is great spring weight yarn and such a nice rainbow of color. I am using #1 knitting needles and it is still a bit tedious to work with.
