Not used this yarn before, but it seems very soft and is looking very pretty as I start knitting a lacy patterned jumper for my new granddaughter. My stock of patterns are so old that I rarely find the recommended yarn.
I like the fact that it is 60% cotton, as I prefer natural fibres wherever possible.
I’m looking forward to seeing the finished jumper.

My first Sirdar yarn purchase in many years. I was hesitant to try the yarn as it is 50% cotton.
I am making up my own pattern. The yarn is a little stiff and stitch definition is great. It is slightly stretchy and spring and I believe it will stay true to gauge.
The yarn does not have the feel of 100% natural fibres but will hold its shape after washing.

This yarn crochets wonderfully! It’s so soft yet perfectly firm for the amigurumi pattern I bought it for (Necromancer Vulture by CrochetByBogusia). Would definitely recommend!

I’ve recently started doing crochet intarsia and this yarn was excellent for the project. The yarn does not split and gives a firm (but not boardy) finish, almost like a fabric. I’ve also used it to knit with and it gives a softer, drapy feel. Personally for knitting I prefer it knitted on a number 3.5mm needle rather than the 4mms needle recommended.

Unfortunately, the colour was not as I expected, so I returned the items. It was difficult to find a post office that would print the returns label .

The colour was not as I had expected so I needed to return the item. Although returns are free, it was difficult to find a post office with the facility to print the label.
