Beautiful, fine, soft yarn, with lovely graduations of colour. The pattern I've chosen is something of a challenge but the yarn is a delight to knit with. Very happy to be able to support a women's collective enterprise.

I think this must be a 4ply or heavy laceweight. Not used it before. 2 of the balls were a good match and the third was much paler. This will not be a problem as I shall use the lighter shade in the middle of the stole, so the 2 ends match. Knitting up much much softer than the skein or ball would make you think. Although this is a single I have had no problems with splitting (using Chiaogoo lace needles) but there were a few joins in each skein.

This is a lovely yarn. Soft to touch with good stitch definition. Easy to knit with on 3.25 needles. Very short colour changes, but as expected. A few slubs in the yarn, but this just adds to the character.

Gorgeous yarn - but settle in comfortably to wind the skeins - they are long!
