150-098F Fishermen's Wool Yarn, Natural

the package arrived with only 1 ball of yarn when I was told 3

Prachtige wol. Alleen jammer dat ik 2 verschillende verfbaden krijg.

Perfect - just as adverised. Feels like real wool yarn, bit scratchy / toothy. Perfect after blocked.

Helpful notes to the interested: Careful when washing, tends to felt if over handled or washed in anything but COLD water. However, it you WANT felt, this would be a decent yarn to use, I would imagine. Love this yarn. I have the Oatmeal which is like a linen colour, the original stock (90% wool from India) Birch Tweed (before the redux Birch Tweed (75% wool) which I do not recommend because it has tiny plastic strands in the wool, not good). Last and most recent, this OAK TWEED, which is more cream than brown when it knits up. Very tweed looking, VERY reminiscent of a birch forest. Wool still has that woolly scent of lanolin to it and it is soft (not coarse) to the touch-easily worn next to skin or over thin cotton shirt. COZY, COZY, C O Z Y ! Knit with TWO strands of the OAK TWEED (yep, two balls at the same time) to get a plush and super cozy knitwear garment or item.

This is excellent value for money but honestly you need to be a wool lover the yarn is a truly beautiful colour and the weight of the yarn is very versatile but it’s not so soft I bought it and I have yet to find a project to match it because it’s just not soft so sorry to say Lionbrand is my favourite brand but this one is in the too hard basket

Good robust wool. Reasonably soft but not like merino obviously. Great for outerwear sweaters and jackets. Knits well on a 6mm needle as well as the recommended 5.5mm
