Cascade 220

This lovely 100% wool arrived in a skein which then had to be re-round into a ball. I did the job on the back of an office chair. If you have no experience in doing this you'd find it irksome at best, infuriating at worst since the skein is wound in three pieces and the wool keeps going up and down between the pieces when being re-round. If you did it like me, you'd need patience. There are most likely many ways of dealing with a skein, including using a wool winder. Anyways - be prepared! The wool is expensive, no doubt, but you get what you pay for and if you're hand crafting an item for a dear friend then you want the best. The wool knits up well - I was using the Ascot style scarf pattern - holds the pattern beautifully. It is robust and warm. I choose the colour to match my friend's darker skin tones. She loved it which is what counts. I had no problem ordering with Love Crafts, they kept me well informed with emails. The carrier (Royal Mail) delivered on time and to the door of my first floor flat.

I love this wool. This is the 4th jumper I used it for. Always pleased with the results.

Enjoying knitting with this wool. Feels natural and substantial. Am feeling the quality of this yarn.

My go to wool worsted yarn. Soft and warm, great stitch definition, perfect for sweaters, hats and scarfs. .

It’s so nice to be able to find real wool and not some nasty man-made substitute! Lots of choice & Speedy delivery. Very pleased.

It was the first time I have used this wool and was very surprised.,at the quality of it. The wool has been lovely to knit with. I will definitely order again

Gorgeous lightweight yarn which feels wonderful and id knitting up like a dream.

Knits up beautifully. Great color.

Seems to knit up nicely although I’ve not finished garment yet. Obviously haven’t washed knitting and the real test will be when garment is completed and eventually washed.

Love this yarn. Knits up beautifully
