Very nice quality
Just as described. I enjoy working with this wool.

lion brand Fishermen's wool
the yarn itself was good but i was disappointed to find knotted rather than spun joins. In a large project it means extra work to cut and then weave in ends

Wonderful yarn
Love the colour. It feels warm. I am making a lopi sweater with it.

Not Pleased with Knots
There were a number of knots in each skein I purchased. I had to cut the yarn and continue by adding the "new" yarn. Although it all blended in smoothly, it was disappointing that I had to do this, especially at the price I paid. Now I have to reorder as I fear I may not have enough yarn with what I originally purchased to finish my project.

Lion Brand Birch Tweed Fisherman's Yarn
Excellent to knit cable/aran projects. Love that it has no dye lot. So easy to pickup an extra ball if you run out.

Nice to knit with
I had never used this yarn before and was pleasantly surprised. It feels nice to use and knits up quickly and evenly. It looks good too!
