Review: Fantastic yarn but expensive to the UK - The yarn itself is great, lovely and soft, Doesn't split and comes with a pattern inside the label. Only marked down a star for price as it's imported to the UK which makes it's a bit more expensive for me. Review: Too expensive and yardage misleading. - I agree with the review left by Sue. The yardage is very misleading it says 355 yards on the band round the yarn but the plastic bag it came in says 252 yards and it’s very expensive. But I too loved the colour which was called Spa (like a light sage green). ## Features - 4 - Medium Yarn For Knitting: Knit away smoothly, without those frustrating frequent knots, with this yarn for hand knitting.
