Great wool in look and feel, image doesn't do justice

Posted by Unknown on 10th Sep 2010

I really enjoy the point five, for one reason it's really great value for money. :)
The colour is really amazing - as a wool. I don't think the image does it justice or show it in the right light - it's so much brighter, but also contains a lot more bright pink and lilac (a lot like the One Zero image but more saturated colour). Because it was so much brighter than I was expecting I've sort of lost the courage to wear it in a garment - I'm not that brave! So I'm thinking I may dye it to at least tint it a little darker.

It's knits really easy (compared to other Colinette wools I've used, Fandango, Giotto, Jitterbug) and is really enjoyable to knit with too. Because of the wool going thick-to-thin I find myself worrying a lot about the tension of the wool, but it looks fine when finished!

Colinette service was great, I ordered 5 skeins and they all arrived very quickly and efficiently. :)
