Review: Beautiful colours - Fab colours which crocheted into a beautiful rainbow blanket that is a joy to see. Good value and good quality - so easy to crochet with and makes a snuggly blanket. Review: Lovely yarn, ideal for scarves, beware the colour change and ball winding. - This ball of yarn is enough to make a narrow long scarf. Normally I buy my yarn elsewhere but his colour was not available from my 2 main yarn shops, and was very please with it when it arrived. It is soft enough for scarves, you could buy multiple ones for a blanket - I would say about 4 for a baby blanket. it washes well but does get a bit fluffy ( I have bought this yarn in different colours before and used it and washed the final products , some of them many times. The colour transition for this mandala yarn is clunkky, no gentle changes like with the scheepjes yarn, just bang another colour, sort of like getting multiple balls of different colour yarn in one roll. it is a good DK size thread, that is easy to work with - I use the ball from the inside out ( start with the end in the middle) this keeps it from bouncing around the place. Beware - the colours are not always ( in fact rarely) as shown in the photo from the manufacturer. The colours are intrinsically the same, but the order varies all the time, for example the photo shows the inside of the ball being light cream moving to light pink, getting darker with the darkest on the edge. Mine arrived with only light pink in the middle, moving to darker, and hten the cream and some more light pink on the edge. So essentially the same yarn, but the order it comes in varies as to where on the roll it was cut for your ball. For one ball, using the whole thing, not a big issue, but if you are using more than one, well, let me tell you, it gets super annoying, you end up having to unravel half the ball, cut it, start there, and then rejoin and work backwards through the remaining yarn to keep the colour progression going through multiple balls in one project. hope this helps. ## Features - MULTICOLOR YARN: Each cake of this gorgeous yarn weighs 5.3 oz.
