Colors aren't as vibrant in person

"I ordered the 1408 colorway because I loved the bright Kelly green. I was disappointed that in person the green is more of a plain green, definitely not as bright/saturated on screen. I even looked at it on 3 different devices. That said, it's still beautiful yarn and it feels great. It's just not 100% what I was expecting."

Very pretty and feels great.

"Very pretty and feels great. Can’t wait to start my socks!"

Really fun looking

"Great looking yarn, good colors although the darks are not as strong as pictured. Still happy I got it."

Priscilla T. (5/5)

Smelly yarn

"The yarn itself is fine, however the smell even after washing the socks is objectionable. Before washing it was gross."

Gusto Carmen yarn

"This yarn is great for weaving and love the colors."

Judy V. (5/5)

This yarn perfect for a beginner.

"This yarn has a bit of stretch due to the nylon, so a newbie can keep good tension in your warp. Makes a beautiful scarf!"

Joan (5/5)

Great Colors!

"Currently working on a pair of socks! Love the yarn."

Terrial B. (5/5)

Lovely variegated yarns

"Variegated yarns are an excellent way to add color variety to a project. I saw the post of the single skein project using the Gusto Carmen yarn and loved the colors, so, of course, I had to buy several. Because I like wider scarves, I bought 2 skeins of each color way, which allowed me to make 2 scarves. The first used only the Gusto Carmen yarn, the second was the Gusto Carmen as weft on a black yarn warp. I think both turned out quite lovely."

Rosemary H. (5/5)

The perfect gift

"I love how this yarn works up. I made up several scarves to have on hand for the holidays. The perfect hostess gift."

Linda K. (5/5)

Gusto Carmen one skein scarf

"I’m a beginner weaver. Used the Gusto to make a scarf on a rigid heddle loom I bought at a rummage sale. It turned out great and I’m ready to tackle my next project."
