I really like knitting with this yarn. It feels nice in the hands and is forgiving to frogging...not too sticky. It has nice drape and nice subtle color changes.

I have now made three sweaters with this and I will be starting a fourth shortly. I have used both the multi- and the single color yarn. The hand is lovely-- almost like knitting with air. The drape is lovely and the colors are marvelous. The only thing I would watch for is the possibility that the colors will pool as you use the multi- or the whitish areas will pool as you use the single color. I have another ball wound at all times. When I see the color pooling, I use two rows with one ball and two from the second and it usually works out. But this is wonderful yarn.

This yarn feels as elegant as it looks, and works up easily, shows stitches to their best advantage. Blends beautifully with the multis in the shawl I'm working on.

I love it. I love knitting with it, I love the choice of colors and blends and I particularly love the texture. There are several additional shades that I would still like to have.
