Studio Donegal - Soft Donegal
I am a beginner knitter. I bought this weight yarn to make my first sweater. My hometown yarn shop had a Black Friday Sale and the stock was depleted when I realized I did not have enough yarn to complete my project. Forever Winding Wool had my color in stock and the lot matched perfectly! They shipped the yarn out quickly and it also arrived in no time! This is the 2nd time I've ordered yarn from your shop and have been very pleased with the quality and how quickly the yarn arrives in my neck of the woods! The yarn itself really is soft and gets softer as you are knitting. It does not seem to shrink and my gauge stayed constant upon blocking and drying! Thanks so much!
