I saw this yarn in a catalogue and was immediately intrigued. I couldn’t wait for it to arrive. Then when I started stitching, I couldn’t put it down! It was so exciting to watch the yarn work it’s magic and the pattern come to life. Never have I completed a project so quickly! I wasn’t smart enough to coordinate the color ways, I just embraced what the yarn gave me
I love this yarn! It is amazing how the pattern just appears as you knit with no effort! I did have to unwind the yarn to get the fingerless gloves to be similar. The variety of color combinations is also great.
I tried this yarn for the first time with a new pattern. Even though I had to frog some sections several times (pattern was not clear) the yarn worked wonderfully.
I did enjoy working with this yarn. The patterning is beautiful. My advice to anyone making an item requiring more than 1 skein is to not only check the lot numbers, but closely examine the colors. I order 2 skeins at the same time and received 2 with the same lot number. As you can see after I finished the body and unrolled the 2nd skein to match the patterning in the sleeves I discovered the colors were entirely different. The dark sage was teal and the charcoal had a blue tint. I have ordered skeins from other suppliers to try to find one that matches the sweater I started and have discovered the colors vary a lot.
I've used Woolease before but just discovered Fair Isle. Disappointed no more info about how to decide about patterns and number of stitches for pattern reveal.
Decided to just try a stockinette shawl and after some frustration about how any pattern might be appearing it became very cool, should be a cry striking shawl but would like more help with pattern options.
Great yarn! Even if you have to do a lot of frogging, like me.
