    Hard to put down...fantastic yarn!!
  

*by A***J on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2016*

It is just delicious to use... Gorgeous knitted up... So soft it's like silk... Incredibly warm... The colors look stunning once the yarn is knitted. I've had zero bleed onto hands (someone said they'd had trouble with that) while using. Overall, after knitting for 44 years, this may be my favorite yarn of all time. Like a great book, I don't want to put it down. You can't go wrong with this! I'm reviewing the Coral Reef color for now...more later once I've used some others!Update #1:I'm using the Glacier Mist color now. And I have to say, as silly and weird as it may seem, this stuff almost brings tears of joy to my eyes as I work up my projects. It feels glorious in my hands, the colors, once wound into a ball and in use, blend one into the next, about every five or six inches. And they complement one another incredibly well. It's like artwork. This reminds me of the colors in a Renoir painting. So soft, elegant and well chosen by Fiesta Yarns. I was blessed enough to buy several hanks of this, in many different colors. I will try to update this again. If I find anything to dislike, I'll be sure to note it, but so far, I have no complaints. Only fantastic results!

    Soft and strong yarn for socks
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2016*

It's wonderfully soft, the dark colors do bleed on your hands. I made a large pair of socks with only one hank! Amazing. 250 yds. Now the cons..The price of this entire line is unreasonably exorbitant. Even if the colors didn't bleed, which they do. I've been knitting for 40 years and know what yarn costs.The description is not correct as it relates to gauge. Using the word 'sets' where it should say 'stitches' shows unfamiliarity with the craft. Perhaps that is why the pricing is suggests gouging.I didn't pay the high price but while looking at colors, noticed some were closer to the mark for whatever reason, maybe another price game. As soon as I bought one skein at 7.00, I went back and it had already jumped to 22.99. I bought more colors and blends at the lowest price. They have arrived and are truly lovely. If they can straighten out their pricing and dye issues, I would buy regularly. Don't trust the gauge description. This is sport weight yarn. If you're making socks, cast on 64 sts with  us size 1 or 2.I used a 3 because the girl has large, wide feet.Aha! As I'm writing this, where I used 'sts' it auto corrected to 'sets'. So it's an editing error, not experience. Pardon

    I'd love to buy every single color but unless the prices ...
  

*by M***V on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2016*

The yarn is incredible. Soft and just the most gorgeous colors. But the price is just ridiculous. I'd love to buy every single color but unless the prices drop I'll be shopping elsewhere. I bought this when quite a few were cheaper and they are all now $22.99. It's amazing yarn, but not worth that much.
