Review on 3 oz Deep Green Phentex Slipper & Craft Yarn - Single Ball by Nicole Mcleod

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Strong but unusual texture

In the knitting world you will find that some threads are made from sheep's wool, some from goat's hair and still others from rabbit's wool. Fentex is made from troll hair. My husband swears his Phentex slippers are comfortable, but I'm not thrilled with the texture of this yarn. His last pair of Phentex slippers lasted a very long time - several years - with a lot of wear and tear during the cold winter months. I expect this pair to last just as long.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • A dubious purchase for seniors
