Got some of this at the start of the sale about a month or two ago and I've absolutely fallen in love with it! Superb for colorwork and everything I've made with it has been a delight to make and also to wear! The combo of shetland and cashmere isn't anything I've seen elsewhere, and it is a great balance of warmth without being too heavy or rough, I'm making myself a hoodie next. I am not sure what I'll do when the stock runs out!

Not quite as soft as Cascade heritage and a bit splitty, but very affordable and comfy with great range of solids so I can't complain.

Excellent quality workhorse of a yarn that makes great sleep socks, hats, scarves, sweaters... it's very multipurpose and comes in a gorgeous range of colors without murdering your wallet. Love this stuff.

Soft, felts easily, worked well held double for the project I needed it for, but I'm not sure it was worth the price honestly. Maybe if I was working with it alone I would be more in love with it.

Knits up like a soft smooth dream but it is a little splitty. Worth it for the stunning results! Does not crochet nearly as well as knitting for denser fabrics, but I imagine it would make a lovely drape if used for lace.

Got this because they had some colorways I loved and it pairs well with my ultimate favorite, malabrigo mechita. It is similar in softness and bounce. I do have to warn, some of the white colorways have unexpected undertones, sic as farmhouse white being a very pale mint. Get natural if you want a true neutral. The brights however are very much true and vivid. Wonderful for shawls and light sweaters.

This is a great yarn for lace shawls, super light and soft with beautiful colorways. The Valentina is a touch more mauve than expected but it is dyed in small batches so there will be some variation. I will still absolutely use it! Mechita is one of those yarns that makes you feel like the legendary Arachne using it - it's almost too soft and light to feel real. It is, in my experience, too bouncy for crocheted lace, although the colorways had me tempted to try anyways. That bounce however makes it fantastic for sweaters and socks and it blocks beautifully for lace shawls and wraps.

I made a triangle scarf with tassels out of 3 skeins of this and not only is it gorgeous but holy heck it is the squishiest most comfy piece of clothing I own now. Super bouncy compared to other super bulky yarns I've used. In love.

I am a sucker for single-ply and this is some of the nicest yarn ever. It is sooo soft and tends to show off malabrigo's gorgeous colorways more vividly than other fingering weight bases in my opinion.

This is some of my absolute favorite cotton to knit with. It also handles well with the crocheted herringbone stitch because of it's firm but sleek texture. Also the colors are very lovely and vivid. Have ordered several times and will again!
