So pretty and so soft! I used it to knit a cowl in feather and fan stitch. The only downside is that it's perhaps not suitable for casting on a large numberof stitches using the thumb cast-on - the yarn is not strong enough to withstand the constant " pulling through" and breaks. Works brilliantly with a cable cast on, which incidentally made a very neat join when wotking in the round.
Love this wool ..making a cowl to the pattern 'That Nice Stitch', striping with the lovely dark blue that goes well with Anniversary colourway. It'll be a good lightweight cowl for autumn/spring! Highly recommend knitting with this!
