Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Yarn - Nassau Blue Reviews

This yarn is amazing. Very colorful and full of excitement.

Wonderful colors and textures, makes beautiful fabrics!

I haven't used the yarn as yet but it is soft and TGIF color is lovely!

Love this yarn! Knits up like a dream and the colors are amazing!

Bought the Americana on WW and knitted a hat for a friend. Soaked it in cold water with white vinegar to set the colors before mailing and it stretched out until it was huge on me-had been a little tight prior to that. There was no bleeding of colors in the cold soak-but then tried to shrink it to original size in hot water and it bled terribly and also would not shrink. It seemed that the loose twist straightened out once it was in water and did not return to the original after drying. So this is a cautionary tale-would not use it on anything that has to fit.

This skein matched pretty well with a previously purchased skein and my infinity scarf came out beautifully. The only downside would be the fact that the yarn isn't twisted and can split if you're not watching your needles as you knit. Fairly large needles seem to help this problem. I'd certainly choose this yarn for another project!

I think this may be my new favorite yarn. The color is stunning,too.

I just finished knitting a hat with this yarn. The color is absolutely beautiful, and the quality is excellent. The hat is a heavier weight and warmer than one knit with Madelinetosh Pashmina. I went up one needle size due to the thickness of the yarn. The resulting hat is perfect for very cold weather here in the northeast. I gave it four stars rather than five only because I prefer knitting with Pashmina worsted as it is softer and silkier than Tosh.
