Nice acrylic
I'm using this yarn for prayer shawls. The stitch definition is very good and the colors are pretty. The first one I did was the teal colorway - really lovely and has a nice sheen. The Cardinal is a beautiful red - I left that at the church for any knitter to use. It's a bit hard to tell about the colorways but so far I haven't been disappointed. It's machine wash/dry which is a plus. What I don't know is how it will hold up with use. I did not knot the ends of the fringe - when I washed and dried the first shawl, the yarn untwisted - I happen to like it - it feels very silky and I like the look. That said, there's no way to know who the woven ends will perform. I've also supplied the shawl ministry with both the blush a lovely pink and the Shamrock a nice green - not too loud. Currently knitting the Royal Blue which is truly Royal Blue.

Pleasant yarn!
I bought this in the Indigo colorway - a lovely dark blue. It will be a wrap for me. I have used Berroco Vintage Yarn for other projects and am well-pleased with the fabric it creates. It's soft to the touch and drapes well.

Lovely yarn!
This is pretty yarn. So far I've used it only for socks. One skein will knit a pair of large socks, size 11, with a longer tube. It has a soft feel and the colors are vibrant. I did notice that the Pin Stripe shade was different from the same colorway in the LL Sole Mate yarn so, if you order the same color in each type of yarn,that may be true with all of them. I really don't know! I will buy more of the Shepherd Sock.

Love!
I bought the colorway Live Long and Prosper - truly sorry it's no longer available. In the Honor version the colors are very soft. The yarn is a pleasure to use and the fabric just calls out to be touched. I look forward to using Honor again.

Cosmic Wonder Dust!
The colors on the white background are cheerful! A friend said it looks like confetti! I used it to make the Hooded Loop pattern and love the way it looks. The DK weight holds its shape fairly well though blocking is necessary.
I have seen Cosmic Wonder Dust with a black background - sorry I missed that one!

Pleasant to knit
I knitted the shawlette Bigger on the Inside with the colorway Bigger on the Inside! It turned out beautifully and has a nice feel and drape to the shawl. The blue color is gorgeous and suited the project well. I look forward to knitting socks with this yarn. I did not have any problems with it.
