Reviews
My first try of Drops yarn and it’s truly beautiful. It’s light weight, soft, easy to knit with. I bought the brown and beige color and made a vest with these two color combo. It’s warm too, and doesn’t pill much. I’ll be buying more when it goes on sale.
Fabulous wool to knit with. I made a super king size bed throw in Christmas Red, lovely and heavy for the colder nights. I'm about to start another for my son who wants one too!
Beautiful yarn bought green and powder pink and knitted a throw.
