Utopia Crafts DK Double Knitting Yarn 100g (1, Steel Grey)

Pretty, seems good quality

Beautiful colour nice to knit with. Definitely recommend

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, Biskotti Colours deviating from pictures: Woodland Green is less brownish but a lovely dark green Olive Oil is more a clear but lovely apple green, not as olive as pictured Cherry Wood is lighter and more like a perfect rust-brown Russet is less reddish, more like a walnut-brown Red Oxide is less red with a slightly pinkish tone In total you could say the photos are more warm/red tinted than the actual colours are

Purchased this wool in 5 different colours and am really pleased with it. It’s a good quality yarn and does not split when knitting with it. Colour match the photos and the wool is lovely and soft. Would definitely purchase again

Lovely knitting yarn and very reasonably priced will order again when required

Beautiful colour and texture. Easy to crochet with very happy with this purchase.

Lovely wool to knit with

I have used this brand for a few projects before, considering the price I am very happy with the quality, good range of colours and no dye transfer to my hands which has happened before with cheaper yarns. However be aware the colour is much more of a pinkish red than a rusty colour (what I wanted!)

Sintetico ma di qualità, si lavora bene, ogni gomitolo è costituito da un filato lungo circa 300 metri, davvero buon rapporto qualità prezzo

Good to work with

Wie erwartet toll

La calidad del producto es excepcional, mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba.
