Made a lovely shawl in this yarn. The colour changes are subtle and the pinks and corals are vibrant. Very pleasing to wear and to look at. It makes me happy. As always, it would be useful to have a large knitted swatch to see instead of the hank.
My favourite sock and shawl yarn. "Light of love" is a gorgeous bright pink.

Beautiful, beautiful yarn as always! Great colours and stitch definition.
A soft, smoothly-plied, lightweight sock yarn spun from luxurious merino and treated to make it machine washable for easy care. Don't be fooled by the name - while it's certainly a treat for the feet, this delightful yarn is also a particular favourite for shawls and scarves!
Great for: lace, shawls, scarves, garments, baby and child items, gloves and of course socks!
