Wonderful yarn - beware of color differences to the pictures!

This bundled yarn is super soft and luxurious. I ordered the abalone color thinking it was blue/grey like the picture. The real yarn is purple-grey. Nice but not what I thought. I went and looked at my order thinking I ordered the wrong color but it still looks more blue than purple in the photos. Please note that colors may not be exact. I'm not a purple person but I love knitting with this yarn! I need to find someone with lavender in the house!

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others

Great merino yarn!

I'm also new to crocheting, self-taught with Google and video and still new to the wide world of yarn. I have experimented with all types of brands that make real 100% merino yarn and the quality and color of Living Dreams Air Merino is amazing! Add to this that all of their products are ethically sourced and have strong relationships with all of their partners and are owned and operated by women and you simply can't go wrong with your purchase. Almost all of their products are featured here on

Pros
  • BUY WITH CONFIDENCE: We provide tips on how to handle each skein to ensure your project gets off to a great start!
Cons
  • threadbare

This yarn looks more like roving than yarn

This yarn is more like roving than twine. That makes it pretty fragile. I can see that a beginner knitter might have trouble with this. If you are thinking of knitting as loosely as possible, you should only put the yarn on the needles and not pull them out. If you need to rip it off you can just attach the ends and roughen up a bit, that's fine and won't ruin the fabric. What can I say, the fabric is very tasty. It's fluffy and super, super soft. Throwing that away would be awesome, but also…

Pros
  • NOT SUITABLE FOR HAND KNITTING: Please use large US 15-19 needles (10-15 mm) or large P or S hooks (15-19 mm). This yarn is light and airy and should be knitted with very little tension. Create vibrant textures without the added weight of most other rye!
Cons
  • Long delivery

Smells and Won't Wash

Very disappointed! I bought this for the realistic effect it would have on a doll that I wanted to use as hair. It will have a lasting style once finished, I was told instructions would come with the skein but there weren't any so after research I found out to hand wash Walter cold and air dry. As I wash everything I do before adding color (cheeks, lips) to ensure they are clean and fresh before shipping, this doll was washed after being placed on the scalp, and she looked like the yarn had…

Pros
  • BIG BALT: 4 ounces, 65 yards (110 grams, 60 meters). Two strands make a generous shawl. Six skeins or more are recommended for a throw or blanket. Patterns are available.
Cons
  • Only available in white
