I love this yarn! It is the best for mittens, hats, and such! Great colors available and more coming from what my LYS says!

Great yarn with which to learn -- Very easy to knit with no splitting, and the price is right. The acrylic content is very evident, however, and I wouldn't recommend it for a sweater. Makes wonderful hats, scarves, etc.
