I used Helen's Lace to knit Jane Sowerby's Shawl, Persimmon, from Knitters Magazine. It was my first true lace project and I was delighted with it. The yarn was great although it can split, I really didn't have any trouble. I was able to unravel it when I made a mistake which was great. Sometimes you can't really do that. I loved it so much I ordered it in the Robot Overlord color without choosing the actual project yet. I highly recommend it.

This yarn has a lovely hand and drapes so nicely, yet holds a pattern well. My only gripe is that the color changes are too dramatic and short---I would have preferred a more gentle,subtle color change/striping in a lace yarn.

I was amazed at how easy this yarn is to ball. No knots, kinks, extra twists or tangles to deal with at all. Of course, I knew it would be wonderful

I've knit four of the shawl-scarf patterns that the label of this yarn provides, and have loved making each one. The color selection for Helen's Lace is wonderful! This is a yarn of choice for me! LOVE IT!

It's a WONDERFUL dyed wool, and so far the shawl I'm working up with it is spectacular.
