Love the colour
I loved the colour and the fact it was pure wool at not a great experience. I made a mans poncho with it and turned out great. Easy to work with wool.

Excellent winter wool
Great for making warm winter hats. Rougher texture, but wears really well. I sent a hat knit in this to my friend in Newfoundland, he loves it.

My Favorite Yarn choice right now
I love to use this yarn for the ribbing on all the hats I am making for this winter.

This is a hit with me!
I've knit several toques/beanies using this for the ribbing and the top shaping and I am so pleased with the results. I'd add a photo here if I could

Sturdy but soft
I used this yarn to knit a hat for a guy in Newfoundland. The yarn is sturdy so will hold up well, but it was actually soft on my hands to knit with. It made a great warm hat.

Good!
I was looking for a natural and not so expansive yarn, and this one is perfect! It's not that soft, but it's ok. The yarn seem to be a good quality and the color is perfect!

Love this yarn!
Yarn like this is surprisingly hard to find, much harder to find at this price point. I'm 20 rows into my cardigan and I have had zero trouble with it. It sits comfortably on my needles and glides over them easily, as any high-quality yarn should. There is a bit of a lanolin (sheep) smell to this yarn, but it's not too strong. As long as you never store it in an airtight container, the lanolin will protect the yarn. If you really can't tolerate the smell or you have a lanolin allergy then you can try to scour it out before you use it, but I'm not going to bother doing that with mine.
