Es muy suave y cómodo de tejer pero se rompe con facilidad y me llegó con olor a humedad y soy muy alérgica.This yarn is so soft, I absolutely love it. While it's been awhile since I last crocheted, this yarn is perfect for crocheting. When it arrived, it's the exact beige I was looking for and is more than enough for the small scarf I'm crocheting. While I'm not done with it, I found that this yarn is really easy to use and while I've used merino wool in the past, I found that this was the softest wool yarn that I've used in awhile. Not to mention, normally I feel a little itchy when using wool and usually have to wear gloves but with this yarn, I'm not experiencing that problem. You do get a small amount but for the price, it would not hurt the wallet if I actually needed to order more if I was making a longer scarf. Since I am making a kids scarf, I'm finding what was sent is actually more than enough for what I'm needing it for.Lovely yarn. Very soft. Nice colors.This is a FINGERING weight yarn in a 50g. Skein. It's thicker than lace yarn, but slightly more fine than sock yarn (though it certainly could be used to make a nice, soft pair of socks). You will be using size 1-3 knitting needles. I wouldn't go higher unless you want to create a lacey fabric. If I was going to crochet with it, I personally would use 3mm hook or smaller.It is:35% Merino25% Nylon20% Acrylic20% ViscoseSo, it's a Merino blend, not 100% Merino.Manufacturer says it is feltable. I have doubts, but I haven't tried it, so I can't say.It is dry clean or hand wash only and cannot be tumble dried.I think the $5 price point is fair.I'll be using it to knit Christmas ornaments. It will be well suited for that.I love this yarn. I’ve ordered in 3 separate colors now. Black, white, and mocha.The yarn is so soft and light and knits up well (yes it is a bit delicate while working). I’ll edit and repost some photos of my finished work later.On my most recent order I ordered a repackaged item, 12 white. I actually received 12 beige, but I’m going to keep them because they work just as well (if not better) with the mocha color I ordered.This yarn is so soft, nice little marshmallow balls.The price is very good, there seems to be enough yarn to make a whole fine guage sweater. The yarn does break easily so be careful with tension, but there seems to be just enough wool in the fiber content that a spit join can be achieved, and I value that.Yarn is very glossy and a bit slippery. Skein comes unraveled easily, may want to use a ball winder, but be careful with tension.While the price is cheap, i wouldn't say this yarn is going to be good for beginners because of the fragility and gauge. I'm not super bothered by it.The label is missing gauge and recommended needle information, i thought I was gonna have to pull out my scale and do math until I looked back at the product listing.As always Amazon is a bit excessive in their packaging philosophy, it's to be expected at this point. Yarn arrived clean, dry, and with no noticeable odors.I like the crochet swatch I made with a g hook. Not sure which knitting needles I would use yet.I love this wool yarn! It is so soft and easy to work with! You won’t be dissatisfied !Very soft. Breaks easy if you are rough like me. (Used to thicker, studier, synthetic stuff but I wanted to check this out)Better value if it was on sale but for now... eh... whatever floats your boat in your price range. I personally would have to use this for very small projects. I got it to make swatches for that size yarn for any project I make. It is not my usual choice in color so I shouldn't get it mixed up. Still love how soft it is.i love working this yarn! it's very soft and the colors are very rich. it is true that it will break if you apply direct pressure or you pull directly but it was not an issue until i read the reviews. i think it's because my crocheting is very relaxed in general and i have to use smaller hooks than other people cause my stitches tend to be loose. still i used a 3 mm hook and i was really happy both while crocheting and about the results. bought another 6 skeins. :)Lovely feel and looks great however I ordered eight skiens and each one either snapped during knitting or had been snapped and retied whilst balling. This has left little ties all over the blanket. Not impressed considering the price.That said it is nice soft wool. Balls are smaller than I thought and don’t go very far. It will be an expensive blanket by the time it’s finished.I bought this wool for a new knitting project. I tried to start it yesterday and found out that when pulled the thread breaks. It is a very poor quality. I am very disappointed.I knitted on a 4mm needle having tried both 3 and 5. Made a sweater. The yarn was nice to work with. Because it is a 4 ply, it does take a while to knit up and the stitch definition is good. However, there is absolutely no elasticity. The ribs did not work at all. The sweater Is a baggy mess.I wouldn’t use it for anything that requires a grip - such as a beanie hat. But a scarf or a blanket would be fine. I wouldn’t buy it again.Not sure what I was expecting having just started knitting. But this wool although extremely soft it just pulls apart so easy, it's like candyfloss.Tried numerous different needles and sizes.Can not knit anything with this wool.
