Our Opinion
This yarn is so unbelievably soft and squishy! And so warm!
I did a test project with the thinner version, but the resulting fabric will be very similar.
It is really simple to knit with, doesn't split or pill and works up super fast.
I used it for a sweater with a star stitch pattern and used the Pregiata Lux for the star stitch to give it a bit of glitter. The glitter is subtle during the day but shines in the lamplight at night. Very pretty.
The fabric is stretchy when knit up, so it's perfect for snug sweaters as well.
Test Project
