Great value
You get so much yarn for the price! Only two to knit myself a sweater and it’s lively, rustic wool. Win win!

Soft wool
First time knitting with Fisherman’s Wool it is a great yarn to work with.

Warm quick Knit!
Fisherman's Wool knits up quickly, for a thick warm garment. The Oatmeal colour had a few dark flecks which were easily removed. Holds stitch definition well. I would use this yarn again in another project.

knots
The yarn itself knits up great but ...there is a lot of little knots in it. I am dying to see how it washes and wears with these knots.

Great yarn
This is a great workhorse yarn. I've used it many times in the past, it felts wonderfully. It is a bit splitty which is why I gave it 4 stars, but still worth it, especially for the price.

Great wool!
Great quality wool in beautiful colours. A pleasure to work with.

Lovely easy to work with yarn.
I have used this, & the other colours of this yarn for many years. I have knitted sweaters, vests, hats, etc. It wears & washes well by hand. I hope that Yarn Canada continues to stock it.

Nice soft wool
This is a very soft feeling wool, knits up quickly. I'm using it to make one of the free sweater patterns from Lion Brand
