For me, it didn’t work. Beautiful colour and beautiful texture.
But, there were too many knots in 2 yarns. The excuse was, they are allowed upto 3 knots per yarn, because of the spinning or something. It didn’t make sense whilst some of the yarns didn’t have the knots.
If they are to spin yarn, they should make sure it is continous. If it isn’t continuous, don’t sell it! When the back of the garment was finished, I looked at the wrong side, and there were like 8 different knots, it looked messy. Trying to hide knots, is tiresome and inconvenient. Not sure I would be knitting with this variety again.
I have 5 more to buy as I haven’t finished garment. It has already taken me 15 yarn. Very expensive as it doesn’t knit up quickly even with a size 10mm needle.

Super soft and fun to knit with. It does shed a tiny bit. Haven’t worn the item yet, so not sure how it will stand the test of time, but it looks and feels great.

Ive been knitting for years, and knots are a big thing for me. I didn’t know that yarns come with separate knots. This is a first for me. So my last review reflected my new experience of finding 3 knots.
I understand I think now. Although knitting with knots is frustrating, I guess it’s the thing now. However, I have had very good yarns without knots, so I think it’s just this particular brand of yarn that comes at times with more knots than necessary.
But in saying that, this yarn is beautiful to knit with. I love the feel and softness. The colour is immense and wonderful. I just love the colour range.
Because of this I rated it 4* this time, it would have been a full 5* if it didn’t have 3 knots, 1 or less. Incidentally, not all the yarns had knots in the same range. So it is possible to have a full yarn without knots.
As a side note:
The team were amazing! They really tried to resolve this issue and without complaint they replaced the knotted yarns. I will be ordering from them again, as they also have great discounts.

I like the look and feel of this yarn. However, the strands tend to fray and come apart if it’s overworked.

Not what I expected, not super bulky. Very disappointed. Would not buy again.
