Crystal at Bag O Day on her YouTube channel had recently presented a stitch I had never seen before that she called “knotted half double” and I wanted to try it with this self-striping yarn. The colors showed mostly greens on line so I ordered just two cakes. When they arrived the colors were amazing! Not just greens, but every shade of green you could imagine interspersed with bright lime, deep purple, teal, bright blue. The stitch is a close one that makes very tiny eyelets and textured rows that look like furrows in a field. The yarn is easy to work with, does not split despite being over-wrapped with various colors in order to get all those wonderful shades. Yes, I had to do a little color control when I found too much lime or purple was weighing down too heavily in a couple of areas. The yarn is soft, a medium 4 weight with a recommended hook size of 5.5mm/I-9. I found that too loose for the stitch I was using and went with a size 7/4.5mm hook. As the yarn is over-wrapped, there are some thicker and thinner sections but they do not adversely affect the overall stitching. The stitch I used is a bit of a “yarn eater” so I ordered an additional bag of 3 cakes from Amazon to finish my blanket. It is very colorful and looks great on my family room sage green sofa and is perfect for a rainy day read.

I purchased this yarn from a recommendation on a pattern. I crocheted a cardigan for my daughter and was thrilled with the yarn. It is a bit on the expensive side but I am so tired of paying for things and being disappointed with the quality. I was not disappointed with this purchase
