This was the first time I'd purchased Opal sock wool. I found the vacuum packaging slightly disconcerting at first, but the wool 'puffed up' beautifully once opened. The yarn is great to knit with, and the self pattern and colours are lovely. very pleased with my purchase. I hope my daughter will like her new socks!
