Hot springs heartland yarn by Lion Brand
I love this wool. Very easy to knit with and products turn out beautifully. I am a multiple repeat buyer of this wool.

Lovely!
I've used this is 3 colours, now. It's quickly become a favourite. Pros: The colours are visually interesting, with a nice sense of dimension. The yarn itself is quite soft! Borderline baby soft, even. Perfect for a sweater, even for a picky kid. I didn't have any trouble with the yarn splitting on my hooks. Cons: I did have trouble with a couple of the balls (2 out of 12 balls) where the yarn had a lot crazy knots, some of which had to be cut. I've found the best way to avoid hassel with these is to always start from the outside. Most knot trouble I found was near to the middle, so, starting fromthe middle can doom your whole ball to The Basket Of Shame

Christmas Present to be made
The yarn is lovely...both this colour and the Prince Rainer. Am wondering where the 2 colours that were backordered are...2 more Christmas presents to be made with them. I am never disappointed with your products.

Nice acrylic yarn
The yarn is a nice, rich colour and knits up great. A few loose fingers that had to be trimmed here and there to keep the sweater from looking messy. Overall, a nice yarn.
