    Sehr schönes griffiges, kratzfreies Garn. Noch nicht verstrickt, aber ich freu mich drauf. Es war ein Testkauf, deshalb erstmal nur 3 Knäule. Die warme Herbst-Farbe gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut. Ich überlege den Citrin oder den daraus zu nadeln. In jedem Fall brauch ich noch mind. 2Knäuel. Ich warte auf mein Bauchgefühl. Wollige Grüße

    Beautiful texture and color

    I’m so happy with the feel and workability of this yarn. So far it’s knitting up perfectly for a mid to heavier weight pullover.

    beautiful!

    I have not yet used this yarn, but I can make a few small comments here. It's very affordable and even though I ordered it prior to the price increase, I would order it again at its slightly higher price. I think it's gorgeous, I love the shade of grey that I ordered and I can see that this yarn and I will be spending many delightful knitting hours together. And frankly, I love that it's wound into a ball, I can just pick it up and get started.
