I enjoyed knitting a pair of socks from this yarn. The striping is delightful. I was able to duplicate the stripes on the second sock using the color changes to guide my pattern changes. The yarn has a rough hand, but as usual, it softened up when set to soak in a bowl with some hair conditioner.

I really like this yarn. It's soft, light, springy. The colors are interesting without being busy. As other reviewers have noted, the Silky Merino works up with a glossy sheen that shows through even in garter stitch. I've been trying to stress out the gauge swatch I made and have so far been unable to make it pill, no matter what kind of beating I give it. I like the barely twisted nature of this yarn - it leaves the stitches looking smooth. This is an excellent value and every stitch is a joy!
