Very soft and luxurious feel, with a nice shimmer and loft to the knitted fabric. I made a pair of "Fetching" fingerless gloves from Knitty and gave them to a co-worker. Interesting color assortment, would be good for Fair Isle knitting. Although I generally knit with natural fibers, I enjoyed working with this yarn, and it is very affordable.

i too usually knit with natural fibers, but i really liked this yarn. i made a 5 ft long scarf that had intricate cabling and i still had a little yarn left all with one ball, so this yarn goes a long way.
