Nice yarn, love the color
Bought the hot pink and white colors for a summer dress for my daughter and am very happy with them. They aren't shiney, more matte, but still soft and not stiff and heavy like most cotton yarns can be. Even though it's matte, the colors are still bright and pretty. I've just started the garment, so I can't really judge drape and how it stands up to washing, but it is easy to crochet with - no splitting or twisting problems yet, and I was able to frog my swatch easily and it didn't look as if it had been used yet. If it washes and drapes as nicely as I've read, I see this being a go to yarn for warmer weather items! Gave it a 4 star only because I haven't had a chance to see how it holds up to a toddler's abuse.

Nice, but not as soft as I'd hoped
I bought this to make a sweater for my 2.5yr old as she is currently obsessed with my cashmere & merino sweaters. I was looking for something cuddly soft and washable. It's soft, but not super soft/cuddly, so for that I would only rate this a 3, however it works up really well with almost not splitting, and held up to a couple of frogs to fix mistakes, and even a chase around the house when the puppy stole it - which warrents a 4 for stregnth. : I'm just finishing up the sweater so I haven't washed it yet. I do love the colors though!
