Utopia Crafts DK Double Knitting Yarn 100g (Russet)

Beautiful yarn. Feels so soft and quite thick. Has a nice stretch to it. Ive been using it to make a cardigan for my granddaughter. The garment has turned out so beautiful I think I have to make myself a sweater or two with this make. It certainly is perfect DK. The yarn ran through my hands and hook so smoothly. I had zero splitting and did not have to sort out any knots. A pleasure to work with. Honestly beautiful and a new life long customer here. I did buy quite a few different yarns during this order and can not wait to get hooking some stunning garments. Photos are of the cream perfect DK. The garment isnt quite finished but I couldnt wait to show what a superb yarn this is. Also added a photo of a jumper dress made with the same perfect DK. I do love this yarn and have bought quite a few colours. The colour range is beautiful.

I absolutely love this pink yarn! The color is even more beautiful in person — a soft, vibrant pink that’s perfect for my crochet projects. The quality is fantastic: it’s soft, smooth, and easy to work with.recommend this yarn if you’re looking for a high-quality pink shade!

For the price I found this to be a very acceptable quality yarn, especially for beginner's projects. I made a hat and a pullover with it, and it's warm to wear and medium-soft to the touch. Yarn works up well and doesn't split easily. I used a 4mm crochet hook which made for a very consistent stitch effect and if you don't have too much tension it gives a bit of drape and the stitches a lovely volume. Even with the whole pullover/hat in double crochets there are no gaps visible which looks lovely and keeps warm.However, there are some things to be aware of:I ordered 8 different colours and 12 skeins in total. They all vary in thickness, even skeins within the same colour. I had thinner and thicker Burgundy, the Cherry Wood was thinner and almost a bit shiny, Woodland Green thinner than Light Green, Russet was the thickest. You can see the differences in the tension square photo. I used the yarn for a striped pullover, and luckily in the overall look it doesn't matter much since I switched colours every row. But if you had larger chunks in one colour, eg. broader stripes or different colours for the sleeves, I imagine you will notice the difference in thickness and drape. The problem is, the threads on the skein all look the same, so you can't really tell before you start using the wool, and by then you can't return it anymore.The "Russet" skein was the thickest of all, I would say Aran thickness, and an almost harsh and felt-like look and feel to it. It was also the only one that had terrible knots every few meters which even just for the low price is a no-go.Colours true to pictures: Burgundy, Coffee Bean, BiskottiColours deviating from pictures:Woodland Green is less brownish but a lovely dark greenOlive Oil is more a clear but lovely apple green, not as olive as picturedCherry Wood is lighter and more like a perfect rust-brownRusset is less reddish, more like a walnut-brownRed Oxide is less red with a slightly pinkish toneIn total you could say the photos are more warm/red tinted than the actual colours are

Good quality wool at a decent price, Looks great made up.

Got this for my mum. She knits little hats for the premature babies in the local maternity hospital.She was very pleased....easy to knit with & the colour is the perfect baby blue

Great wool, nice and soft, knits up well. Would buy again.

Next day delivery as stated! Wool is true to colour. No breaks in yarn. Highly recommend this company.

Nice wool but more fuchsia than red.

Schöne Farbe. Angenehmes Garn 👍

La laine est vraiment top, surtout pour 3€. Elle est très agréable a utilisé et agréable au touché, aucune odeur. Je l'utilise pour faire du crochet et c'est environs un 4,5mm / 5mm max

Wat een mooi verpakte acryl en een schitterende kleur. Heb er nog niet mee gehaakt, maar heb er alle vertrouwen in

Laine très belle et chaude

Tres bien agréable à tricoter
