Very surprised by this cotton yarn, lovely colouring. Though I would say it’s more like 4ply than dk.

I have rated it low because it wasn’t what I wanted, I read it as DK but didn’t read the description and it a fine cotton I won’t use it.

I thought this was acrylic double knitting wool (the categories i had selected) but when the wool was delivered it was more like cotton and 3 ply. Very disappointed.

I brought this wool for a friends birthay as she crochies a lot of blankets she was very pleased with it
Beautiful colours and texture but unfortunately not the DK it is described as. More like 4 ply to me. I would advise using the ball band as your guide.
Great yarn
Worst ever wool to use…just unwinds into knots. Ended up with refund it was so bad

Silky feel but ball falls apart and keeps getting knotted which take ages to sort out. Knits up well.
This is stated as dk but it is finer than 4 ply and resembles embroidery thread. Colour is amazing

It was a nightmare. It unravelled and quickly got into a mess. It was wound too loosley and I have wasted 2 balls as it got too tangled to unwind. The third ball I put on my wool winder but had to be so careful as I unwound it to feed the winder. I have kept it on the winder as I am afraid to take it off. The actual yarn is lovely but I wouldn't buy it again, total waste of my money.

I wanted to knit a jumper but when it arrived knew it was not possible, so I returned 4 balls & croched a little cover for my table so it was not wasted
Definitely doesn't crochet up as a double knit, more like 4 ply but the feel of it makes up for this as it is almost a cotton feel and it drapes beautifully, had to adapt my pattern quite a bit though.
I've not worked with this yarn yet. It looks very thin to say it's supposed to be DK! Only time will tell
Great yarn
Loved the colours. Not what I was expecting more like a cotton than wool , very fine. Doesn’t hold pattern in knitting but crochets nicely . Need to be careful when taking band off as yarn likely to slide off ball. Pleased with effects though
Great value
Product is gorgeous but it took a long time to be delivered. However I would use the firm again.
Described as DK but very thin yarn and two out of three ball bands missing so yarn unravelled.

Love the yarn but it most definitely does not work up as a 22 st x 28 rows on a 4mm needle nas stated in the description. I bought this to use with the Papatya Love and ended up having to go out and buy something different.
Its a nice and soft acrylic yarn. Im making a crochet cardigan and its turning out well. The colours are great (I got colour 12) It does split and please see photo for info about the size as its a bit different from what is described.
