TEHETE 100% Cashmere Yarn for Crocheting 3-Ply Warm Soft Luxurious Fuzzy Knitting Yarn (Black)

Excellent yarn, moderately fluffy. Very soft to the touch and easy to knit with.

I do love this yarn. I’ve purchased it multiple times in multiple colors and used it for a variety of knitting projects. I must say: I don’t have the same complaints others have had.Few things: many say this yarn breaks easily. I’m sorry, but that’s cashmere. Speaking as someone who also spins yarn from raw fleece, cashmere has a staple length that’s similar to cotton, meaning each individual hair is much, much shorter than wool. And that aspect makes it easier to break. It’s inherent in 100% cashmere rather than a defect of this brand. If you want cashmere that isn’t easier to break, you have to purchase a wool/cashmere blend.Second, some complain about the size. It’s seems to be a standard fingering weight. If you’ve only ever bought yarn in chain stores and are unfamiliar with the term, it’s a weight that one would typically use for knitting socks. I use it for gloves, hats, and mostly shawls. But if you want a regular worsted weight, buy twice as much yardage and hold two strands together. It’ll be a little thicker than worsted, almost somewhere between worsted and aran weight, but not enough to make a huge difference unless you’re doing sweaters and need to make adjustments to your pattern (in which case you ought to swatch your project first anyway).I love this yarn, and I’d never be able to buy 100% cashmere otherwise if not for this brand.

Very nice soft yarn. Will purchase it again in the future.

Like the color and disliked how small for the price. But it is cashmere.

I saw people complaining about the quality of the yarn, and that it breaks easily. However, it feels very durable despite being thin. The yarn feels buttery smooth to work with, I recommend using a 2.5 mm crochet hook (us terms) for this yarn. It's not very hard to work with, however, if you're not used to crocheting with thin yarn it might take a second to get into the rhythm. At first I was concerned with how small the ball of yarn was. However, it's great value, as its very thin and the balls compact, so its more yarn than you believe it is. It's expensive but worth the investment, sooo much more breathable, luxurious, and comfortable than acrylic yarn!

It arrived with an orangish yellow stain spot. Kinda gross because it's hard to the touch and looks worse in real life. Not brand new. Sad cuz I'm planning to make socks for a newborn.

Unfortunately, I have to revise my review.The yarn seemed very good at first, nice and soft.I did a burn test on it. This is how you can determine if it is 100% cashmere. Unfortunately, the yarn failed the test. There may be cashmere in it, but I assume no more than 20-30%.Since it felt good in my hand, I decided to start my planned project with it. During knitting, it turned out that in addition to synthetic, there is a mixture of woolen yarn and it flies a lot during work. Unfortunately, I am allergic to wool :(

Excellent yarn and very strong and works well for repairing a sweater.
