LOVE this yarn! So easy to work with, and so soft once it is knitted up. And you can't beat the price.

I agree - in the process of making a knotted baby blanket - bright colors and soft drape look to it.

Although I LOVE all the other KnitPicks yarns I've used, this is my least favorite. I tried to make the lace T-shirt that is a recommended project. I got to a certain point and discovered an error. Trying to take out rows with this yarn is near impossible! The texture causes it to get caught up. It also knits up too bulky for the pattern. This is the first time in years I have had to toss a project. A disappointing yarn for me.

Me too, this is my least favorite KnitPicks yarn. It's very soft, but hard to work with even compared to other boucle yarns.
