Lion Brand Yarn Fishermen's Wool Yarn 150-202

the package arrived with only 1 ball of yarn when I was told 3

Excellent yarn for the price! durable, warm, soft, nice color. Love the twistyness of the Oak Tweed. I made a shawl from this yarn for the historic site where I work, and my coworker traded in the one I had made for her because she liked this coloring better. So be ye warned, items made from this yarn may induce covetousness and incite thievery. Will purchase again.

Si pica un poco. Pero para un suéter está perfecto. El grosor perfecto, la bola de 227 gramos. Color muy bonito como capuchino. La muestra es de acuerdo a las especificaciones pero lo teji con agujas del 4.5 mm. Me pareció más adecuado ya que lo quiero más grueso por el invierno. Lo he comprado en varios tonos y las prendas ya llevan 1 o 2 años y siguen muy bien.

Good price and great texture

Helpful notes to the interested: Careful when washing, tends to felt if over handled or washed in anything but COLD water. However, it you WANT felt, this would be a decent yarn to use, I would imagine. Love this yarn.I have the Oatmeal which is like a linen colour, the original stock (90% wool from India) Birch Tweed (before the redux Birch Tweed (75% wool) which I do not recommend because it has tiny plastic strands in the wool, not good). Last and most recent, this OAK TWEED, which is more cream than brown when it knits up. Very tweed looking, VERY reminiscent of a birch forest. Wool still has that woolly scent of lanolin to it and it is soft (not coarse) to the touch-easily worn next to skin or over thin cotton shirt. COZY, COZY, C O Z Y ! Knit with TWO strands of the OAK TWEED (yep, two balls at the same time) to get a plush and super cozy knitwear garment or item.

Absolutely love this wool, so soft and great to work with - definitely recommend1
