This is not the yarn for me. I started knitting a garment in stocking stitch but pulled it back because the knitting looked so uneven (not usually a problem I have). I also had 3 knots in one 50g ball of yarn which I do not feel is acceptable. Not to be beaten, I thought have a go at crocheting with it. The yarn was much better to crochet with than to knit, it split less and the tension was much more even. Sample in photo, the lilac pink is the Elements Simply Silky. It does have a nice silky lustre.

I have not used this yet, but it feels very smooth and soft for baby skin.

Silky but splits easily, which can lead to mistakes and uneven finish

First time I have ordered from this site. Delighted with the items, beautiful to knit with and I am hoping I can get my knitting finished by the time our first Great Grandchild arrives!. Will definitely be ordering from this company again.

The yarn is quite slippery and difficult to cast on. It is very easy to split while knitting with it which can cause mistakes to occur.

The yarn is very nice but awful slippery to knit with, and if you are not careful you can split the stitches. I will not be buying this wool again. As I have bad hands which causes my hands to slip.
