Good yarn, accurate depiction
The yarn color looks very similar to how it appears on the site and the reflective element really does ping in direct light. It's idea for a visible night-time walk hat. I find the yarn easy to work with on larger needles but the reflect has a little bit of a tendency to unwind from the yarn itself during cast on. Overall I like this, though, and would buy again.

Love this yarn
This yarn works up so thick, lush and soft - even with the reflective component woven through it. The toque I made with this yearn promises to be warm and cozy for the upcoming winter season.

Great idea to make reflective garments out of this yarn
I recently knitted two toques using this reflective yarn. Unfortunately, there were 3 big knots in the yarn. It's kind of an inconvenience especially if you are knitting in the round. I will not purchase this reflective yarn again.
