First of all, this is the softest yarn I have ever worked with. Also, note that I am a college student so pricey yarns are out of the question. That being said, I have used this yarn to make several knit sweaters for myself and as gifts.
Yarn Weight:
This yarn varies extremely in terms of weight. At one point in the yarn it will appear to be a super bulky yarn, but several yards later it will be lace weight. This can be a problem for projects that need a very consistent, neat looking stitch. The sweaters I have made with this yarn have a lot of cable detailing and a sort of haphazard look to them so this hasn’t been a problem for me.
Shedding:
A piece of advice: yoga pants are a magnet for yarn fuzz. I have made the mistake of knitting with this yarn too many times while wearing yoga pants or leggings and get up from my seat looking like I took a roll around in the lint trash can in my laundry room. Also, a lint roller is no match for the amount of fuzz that will be shed unless you plan on wasting 5-10 of the sticky sheets that come on the roll.
Softness:
As I stated earlier, its basically knitting with cloud fluff. It is amazing and I constantly pet the yarn to take in the softness. Hands down 5 stars for the way it feels. Also for how inexpensive the yarn is it’s incredible.
Overall it’s a good yarn to work with for certain projects. I think an afghan would be the ideal project to make using this yarn because gauge isn’t really a factor there. Otherwise, I would think twice about using a yarn with so much variation in weight. While the softness is a huge plus, if you’re going for a neat look this yarn is not the answer.
