Review: Love this yarn! - Love this yarn! This brand/style has become my all-time favorite. It's 20% wool and has a rustic feel to it, but it isn't scratchy. I have purchased it in 4 different colors so far (it comes in over 30). The dyes run true to color so even different dye lots look the same. It's a big chunky yarn so great for scarves and hats. It might be a bit too thick for a sweater, but that's just my opinion. I might try it one day. I can't speak to the durability of this but it's care is easy and it would lend itself well to beginner projects.
Review: Fantastic all around!! - Friend made an afghan for me with this yarn... it turned out beautifully and is very warm and comfortable!! They said it was smooth and easy to work with!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: i want to make a blanket, crochet- how much of this would i need to make a adult size blanket?**
A: Hello - this will make a beautiful blanket - you will need 10 - 12 balls - be sure to use a larger hook like an "N" or a "P".  Gena Hester, Yarn Designers Boutique, toll free 888 538 2725.

**Q: Is this yarn suitable for making crocheted rugs?**
A: Yes, this yarn would be suitable.  I have not crocheted with it but it knits up beautifully.  However, I do believe it will slide so you might want to put some latex backing on the finished rug.  Hope this is helpful.

**Q: What's the fabric content of this yarn? I can't tell. Is it a wool/acrylic blend? What percentage of each? Thanks!**
A: It is a wool/acrylic blend.  Each color is a different blend.  The most common on the colors I've bought is 80% acrylic 20% wool.  On the wheat, it's 86% acrylic, 10% wool & 4% other fabric.  They are all listed a machine washable.

**Q: how many ounces in one skein?**
A: I think 6-7 ounces

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for a hat!
*by A***R on August 23, 2025*

Easy to work with, no knots, the yarn worked up pretty quickly. I crocheted it into a hat, and it seems quite soft, thick and warm. I was worried about it being scratchy, or uncomfortable, but it isn’t at all!! The colors are just as beautiful in person too.
