Our Opinion
Incredibly beautiful yarn. It seems delicate but is actually really strong. It feels super soft and smooth and has a stunning shine to it.
I knit a wrap cardigan with it, to dress up simple clothing to something classier. I've gotten so many compliments on this already, and it's all because of the yarn. It just looks fancy!
It isn't the easiest yarn I've worked with as the strands are quite loose. It takes a little getting used to. The yarn is good for lace work as well as simple stockinette.
