........... This yarn is a revelation and I cannot stop petting it.
I'm knitting a swatch on 6mm needles and am thrilled with how it's turning out. I am not usually a lover of soft wools because I feel they tend to lack personality. Also in my experience the really soft wools seem to pill and look ratty really quickly because they don't usually possess the qualities that make a yarn hardwearing - high twist, a little bit of grit and prickle... But your buttery soft Big Wool yarn is an exception! It's got presence and woolliness yet feels silky and smooth to the touch and it looks to me as though it will wear well in my road testing.
There's less of a difference here between the airy plump yarn ball and fat bouncy stitches worked in this yarn; the hand-squish-grab really gives an instant impression of the soft and silky nature of the yarn.
