Beautiful!!!
I bought a ton of these, I'm making shawls from them. I'm still working on the first one, and it is turning out beautifully. This yarn feels so soft and it's easy to work with. The only issue I have is I'm pretty new to crocheting, and I had to frog my work a lot in the beginning. If you happen to make a lot of mistakes, be careful with this yarn because there's a part of this shawl that has a bunch of slip stitches in a row, and I make them really tight. When I pull at them, sometimes they're stuck and I have to really pull at it, and I snapped it a few times. I'm getting better at it though, and I bought this yarn in the green color too so I could make matching shawls in two colors. Don't mind my placement of dragonflies in the picture, I know they're wonky, I stopped watching the tutorial after I completed the third row of them, and I'm just putting them where i want now.This color is gorgeous, and I can't wait to try the green next!Edit: I'm making a pillow cover with the green, it's even better than the blue!!

Great roving style yarn, but NOT a 4 weight.
I love this yarn, it’s soft, the colors are beautiful… however this is not a 4 weight. Roving goes from thick to thin, that is the nature of the roving. However, the weight classification is meant to show what it averages out to. If you just look at the amount of yardage compared to grams, it clearly is not a 4 weight. This is a thick 2, thin 3, at best. It stays in the 2 weight category for the most part, sometimes goes to a 3, and very rarely ever reaches a 4. I’m okay with this, it just means my project turned out smaller than I anticipated. That’s okay tho. If you are making a garment, get extra. Measure how much you’ll need based on the weight, not the yardage. Other than that I do love this yarn, wish it wasn’t so fuzzy but I get that it’s trying to look like wool.

The colors and transitions are beautiful
I’m a beginner on my 4th project and just love this yarn’s color variations and overall softness. This project is a lap throw (halfway complete) and I’m using 4 different wheels from left to right: summers day, imaginary garden, buttercup and pink marmalade. The flash brightened the colors but in the sunlight they would be that bright. Like others have mentioned, while not perfect (there are spots that the yarn is thinner) but I haven’t had any breaks. In the 5 wheels I’ve used there was only one knot but it does not stand out, and maybe it’s the stitch I’m doing, but I don’t feel or see the few thinner spots (the thin spots are brief and far between). This yarn is my favorite and I’m back to order more to make scarves and hats for holiday gifts. I made a shawl with the Mandalas and Ferris is softer plus I like the colors and transitions more.

gorgeous yarn, not so great to work with
Let me start by saying this yarn is gorgeous. I got the evergreen colorway and the gradient is fabulous. The yarn itself is soft and nice to work with. It doesn't split. It's a bit fuzzy but if you don't mind it then it's not an issue.However, this yarn does NOT frog. Good luck frogging this yarn without it getting caught on itself and completely stuck. I had to frog a large portion of my project when I noticed a mistake and it would not go. I had to cut it off with scissors and re-attach the yarn to continue working. Another thing, good luck sewing with this yarn because it likes to come apart, and once it does that, it pulls apart like nothing.Overall, I do not think I would buy this yarn again. If you are a perfect crocheter/knitter and never need to frog, it's great! If you want to try this just for the lovely colors, go for it, but be warned.

Love this yarn!!!
This is so easy to work with and the color pattern is great. I bought a few more because I decided to make a blanket. The price is on point! It is great for crocheting.

Beautiful blue tones
Making a sweater with this yarn. I always appreciate reviews that show pictures of colors and patterns of variegated yarns. This yarn is more of a 3 ply yarn and is nice for scarfs and sweaters. Yarn is alittle felty but that's ok with me. Nice yarn to crochet with and has a subtle appearance. Have not come across any knots or tie off in the skeins. Have not blocked the piece yet so I hope yarn does well with that and washability.

Stringy
A decent amount for the price. Not at all fluffy and a bit scratchy feeling if you decide to actually use this for an airy crochet blanket. The colors are beautiful together though and is great for a simple scarf or couch throw blanket.

Soft, mega yardage yarn.
I needed one ball of this yarn to finish a scarf I had started, and ended up with more balls than I needed, but that's ok. It's super soft and each ball has a lot of yardage. I'm enjoying knitting with it, and hope that it will wear (and wash up) well.
