Wrap Scrarf 5 out of 5 stars (5 out of 5)
This wool is truly amazing and easy to work with. The smooth wool glides so easy off the #9 needle. Wow! Can't wait to order this in the Kiwi!

Lovely and soft Blue Sky Alpaca SIlk Yarn 5 out of 5 stars (5 out of 5)
The color of this grey yarn was exceptional deep and rich and true to the image on the site. It feels wonderful to work with, and so far it knits very well, using a complicated lacy pattern with cables.

Love! 5 out of 5 stars (5 out of 5)
Out of the many yarns I have ordered from JBW, this is by FAR my favorite. I love everything about it: the colors, the texture, the loft and drape, and the inspiration that only the best yarns give. I would recommend it highly!

affordable luxury - my new favorite yarn! 5 out of 5 stars (5 out of 5)
This yarn is as luxurious as any I've ever purchased. The colors (papaya and ginger) are rich and the silky sheen is amazing. I have splurged on much more expensive yarn in the past - this is every bit as gorgeous and with generous yardage! The lacework and cabled scarves I made are beautiful and soft as a dream. I will definitely buy again!
