First time to use elastic yarn
I made a pair of knee high socks, and wanted to make sure they'd stay up. I ordered the Clover Elastic Yarn Thread in the opaque though it looks white to me. It was a little fiddly to use, as I held it with the sock yarn to knit. But the packaging helped a lot, as there was a hole to pull the elastic through. That kept it from tangling. It was tricky to hold the tension, but that was me, not the elastic. Sorry to see this has been discontinued.

Wish I had all the Addi sizes
These needles are very smooth, and well made. I started knitting with bamboo, and feel like I have 'graduated' when I use these. If you are a new knitter, you might find them too 'fast', but it doesn't take long to get used to them. And once you do, there's no going back

Pretty pretty yarn
This is a moderately soft yarn. I am using the color Dust, I believe and it is gorgeous - a gray-blue. The price is very reasonable. I haven't noticed much trouble with it splitting. Overall, a great choice for the Neckdown Long Hooded Cardigan from Knitting Pure & Simple.

Softest yarn ever
I love knitting with this yarn. It is a little bit slippery, but not too bad. It IS the softest yarn except maybe the baby cashmerino I have used thus far.
I wish there was more color selections. I'm making the Family Striped Sweater, and didn't care for the pattern colors. With my daughter's help, I found three colors that look wonderful together, but selection is a bit limited
