Comments about Misti Alpaca Pima Cotton & Silk Yarn in #4338 Cloudy Blue:

I love the colour and the softness of the yarn. However, I hit some problems winding it up and ended up with a right mess of knots. In the end, all that tugging and unwinding knots made it pill really badly, and on top of that I still had to cut the yarn (into two separate almost 50g balls).
Anyway. I used 3/4 of the first 50g ball to make a small purse, and it was a little too drapey (the purse flopped about a little too much) so I lined the purse with some cotton. Otherwise, it worked out really well. Can't wait to use it in a scarf.
