100 Cashmere Yarn-6Ply

This is a lovely, soft yarn that is easy and pleasant to work with.

Terrific quality cashmere and almost exactly matches in color my cashmere blanket with moth holes! I’ve patched the holes and they’re invisible now. I highly recommend this wonderful yarn!

Very nice, soft yarn. Some was used for socks for a niece for her 1st b-day

I am into knitting and crocheting these days so I bought this yarn for my sweater. It’s soft and easy to work with

This is very workable at first, then the strands separate and it becomes apparent that the 3-ply wasn’t twisted together well enough. It knits more like when you combine fine strands from multiple balls than like a normal yarn. You can see how the strands separate in the 1st photo. The poor twist makes it very easy to split the yarn as you transition between knit & purl. It is also not nearly as soft as I expected. Softness, I would give it a 4 of 5. Softer than wool, but not as soft as the 100% cashmere sweaters I have purchased. Once knitted up (size 4 needles) it has a look more similar to superwash merino than cashmere. (2nd photo). Given the price, it’s fine, but as I start into the 5th ball on this blanket, the split strands are getting annoying. I had planned to make the coordinating sweater, but I don’t think I have the patience to deal with this yarn for a second project. UPDATE: Now that the blanket is finished, hand washed (cashmere/gentle soap), blocked & dried flat … I have to say I’m disappointed in the texture. Despite the manufacturer’s statement that the yarn will get softer with washing, it simply isn’t as soft as other cashmere yarns I have worked with. Frustrating to have put so much time & energy into a baby blanket and have the finished item not very soft/cuddly. After washing, I’d give the softness a 3 out of 5. I’m currently working on a baby hat with a cashmere/merino blend that is significantly softer.

This is lovely cashmere yarn. I am crocheting a sweater that has required more skeins than I originally purchased. Initially, I was worried that the different dye lots wouldn’t match, but that hasn’t been the case. The yarns is the perfect thickness for a sweater that will serve you in fall, winter, and the beginning of spring. It works up beautifully, and should you need to pull out your work, it doesn’t fray or become weakened by knots when you unravel it. I am very pleased with the ease of use, quality, and color. If you have plans to create something with cashmere, I’d recommend this yarn for beginners and advanced crocheters/knitters alike.

I liked this one. Natural wool and very soft. Made some clothes for my baby grandson. Ordered another set.

Repaired moth holes in my sweater. Great product!

Very soft cashmere and is exactly like the photo. Very easy to crochet with. I’ve ordered more!

Non è chashmere.!! È lana merino (forse)

Wonderful cashmere yarn, great for mending
