Lovely colourway
This yarn is quite lightweight and knots up well. The colours are lovely too. Just be aware that this is a bulkier yarn than a lot of other chunky weight yarns, so garments will come out bigger.

Lovely Yarn
I love this yarn, I use it for crochet and it works up beautifully. I have made several different things with it and they have always come out really well. Would recommend using it.

So soft and lots pretty colour ways to choose from
I bought this yarn along with other colours with the intention of knitting hats, which I am sure will be really warm and soft. I shall enjoy knitting with this yarn.

Disappointed
Quality of wool is ok but the way the colours change it makes horizontal stripes which I didn’t really want. I though it would have given more of a mingled pattern

Great colors and easy to use for a beginner
Quite new to crochet but wanted to make a large blanket for a campervan. Easy to use and forgiving of my novice mistakes. Colours look lovely and it’s super warm!

Love it.
Lovely yarn. I used for loom knitting a hat and it turned out so lovely. Just wished the cream sections happened more frequently but that’s a personal preference.

Lovely to work with
I used this yarn to crochet a winter beanie hat, it was lovely to work with and the colour variegation has made the hat look very effective. Would buy again.

This wool knits up nicely
This wool was perfect for my latest project. It knits up smoothly and the colours merge in a good way making interesting shapes on the finished item.

This wool looks great!
I’m using this wool to make blanket squares and it’s a really easy was to add detail! Creates a really nice stripped pattern.

Disappointed in knots in wool
I’m very disappointed in the last three balls of wool I’ve purchased as they all had breaks and knots in the wool.

Great value for money
This yarn is good for crocheting. It’s quality yarn. The only negative is that it’s hand wash only

Love this yarn!
I am a novice knitter looking for a thick yarn to knit a warm scarf for my first winter in England. This yarn was not only a beautiful color pattern but is so soft and warm. I used about two to finish my scarf and it turned out great! Definitely going to repurchase once I'm done with the projects I am working on now.

Excellent Quality
I have purchased this wool many times now as I am making a large crochet knitted throw for my daughter. I love using this wool (for crocheting) as its very soft and glides through the hook beautifully with very rarely any problems. Highly recommend and love that it's included in the 3for2 offers currently in store.

Very good quality knits up fast
This is a lovely feeling chunky yarn. I purchased for a children's cardigan so the stripes came out quite thick and some colours are quite dark in appearance. This isn't necessarily a bad thing just didn't look how i had anticipated, that being said it knits up very fast and is excellent quality for a gift piece.

Great product for a great price, it's really soft too!
This is some of the best chunky yarn I have ever used. Doesn't clump or fall apart, no signs of stray threads overall great quality. Made a few scarves and they turned out to be cosy and warm. The yarn is soft and doesn't itch against skin, perfect for scarves, socks, jumpers and baby projects.

Good WI wool
You will never fail if you make your garments up with this particular wool. It washes well and does not ever look pulled after use. I made a beautiful knitted cushion with this colour. . Because you buy 3 for the price of two I still have ball left over to use. Will therefore buy another 3.

Nice chunky yarn with wool
I have not used chunky yarn before to crochet with and I bought this as it was a nice colour and looked good, without a pattern in mind! I have made a lovely chunky hat and matching scarf. This yarn is easy to crochet with and gives a nice chunky but lightweight finish. Good yarn.

Lovely Knit
Latest wool I bought knits beautifully. I don’t think I’ve ever had a problem with anything I have bought from Hobbycraft. A great selection for anything you fancy trying your hand at. Love to browse to see what I have never had a go at before. Loads of inspiration. L

Warm and soft!
I bought this to crochet a scarf for my dad’s birthday, it worked up beautifully and turned into a very well loved present. However when I was attempting to steam block it, the fibres began to give off a smell. It did pass once aired out and it’s soft and hangs well.

Soft and warm
Had to buy quite a few balls of this wool for a wavy pattern Uni blanket for my niece. She loved the colours in the wool and the fact it is so warm( her Uni room is a bit cold!)Easy to work with and I didn't really need to match the wool codes.

High cotton content
This wool is a beautiful tonal fade of two shades of blue, white and two shades of light and dark grey. It's Highbury cotton content yarn so knitted items may feel abit rough but it is hardwearing and great for hats and more!!!
