Great yarn choices

"I recently purchased a red skein of Briggs & Little sport weight to knit myself a "Melt the Ice" hat. I am very pleased with my order from The Woolery. I will definitely order more yarn soon. :):)"

Barbara B. (5/5)

beautiful yarn

"I haven't used this yet but so excited to! I just love the colors"

Stefani C. (5/5)

Not good for Inkle Bands

"I bought some off white in this yarn line but it was for use on my inkle bands. Found out it is not suitable for that. Might use it as weft for another type of project."

Laura S. (5/5)

great choice

"I'm knitting a Christmas stocking for a friend. This yarn handles nicely and has vibrant colors. It is a complicated pattern so it is taking me a long time but it is enjoyable working with quality yarn"

Wonderful yarn

"It is such a joy knitting with original, old-style wool yarn! I so dislike super-wash and this is some of the nicest yarn I've knit with in a while. And the price is right!!"
