Comments about Misti Alpaca Chunky Hand Paints - #CP01 Red Rover:

I love this yarn. I have knitted 2 projects with it already and ready to start a third. It is so beautifully soft. BUT, the Red Rover color I ordered (2 skeins) did not match at all between the skeins!! I apologize, as I need to check the label to make sure I was not sent 2 different dye lots, but I cannot imagine that this would happen. I was about 3/4 through the first skein and I was just So-So about the color. It seemed dull and not very exciting. Then when rolling the second skein, I noticed the colors were much more vivid and I ended up ripping out the first one and knitting the garment mostly out of the second one, using the first one only to finish up. Still amazed they were so different.

Service & Delivery comments:

I do plan to check my labels to make sure I was sent the same dye lot, as the coloring was SO different between two skeins.

excellent yarn

The yarn knits so smoothly - doesn't split or snag. I also love the color variations - they are beautiful and go with anything.
