Reject yarn?
The 3 stars is mainly because of the wool I received from Jimmy Beans, not the Malabrigo product itself. I love this yarn and I have used it many times. This is the first time I've ordered it from Jimmy Beans and the quality is horrible. It is not twisted at all and almost appears like roving yarn. It's virtually unusable in it's current state. I've used this worsted yarn in various colors and I ordered 3 skeins in different colors from JBs, and all look like reject yarns. One even had a homemade tag on it. As in it was printed on regular printer paper and not the tag that malabrigo uses. I took pictures of how the yarn is supposed to look as I still have a little of a skein I bought from another local vendor. The difference is glaring. I'd be very hesitant to order from JBs again based on these skeins I received. These are obviously not up to par with malabrigo's store bought yarns and these should have been taken out of circulation. unfortunately, I received this in the mail, looked to make sure the colors were correct, but only nowover a month later took it out to wind and noticed that horrible texture of the yarn. it even broke as I was winding it, which has never happened to me before. It's because the yarn is not twisted at all. Just horrible
