I made a lovely hat with this yarn. The color is beautiful and bright - it makes me smile! This yarn is also so incredibly soft. I was quite surprised to see someone say it wasn't in their review, and I wonder if they did not wash the yarn first to remove the spinning oils. I cannot stress enough how important that step is. It is so soft and squishy once it's properly washed. I wish I could have gotten my hands on some of the smaller weight yarns in this color to make some sweaters for my daughter and me.
The hat looks great, I'm happy you liked the yarn! It was a popular color, so it's not impossible we do another batch of it soon.
The color is really nice, and the yarn is nice and soft. Purple is my mother's favorite color so I plan to make something for her with this. Make sure to follow the wash instructions for removing the spinning oils to bring out the softness of this gorgeous yarn!
Thank you again Lisa, glad to hear you like the color
The color is so lovely in person. I have not worked with this yet, but I have worked with the Bulky Cashmere that was incredibly soft after following the washing instructions to remove the spinning oils. Since this is a DK weight yarn, it will be less firm due to less bulk and will likely be even softer once washed.
Yes the DK is a great middle ground. The washing is like magic when it fuzzes up a bit, I hope you find the right project for it!
These socks are so incredibly soft and warm. I also love how my feet do not overheat in these socks and thus don't get sweaty. I will definitely be buying more for the family and also plan to get some as stocking stuffers when Christmas rolls around.
Nothing quite like a pure wool sock. Happy you like them! We're going to do another batch for this winter!
Natural color 100% cashmere yarn — beautiful soft gray color! Nice even twist, not too tight and not loose — just right. Buy some, you’ll be very happy too!
Awesome, great to hear you like it. I hope you enjoy knitting it up!
Wife loves the mittens and socks. recommended
Happy to hear they were a hit, thank you!
The yarn has a good feel with the 15%cashmere. I really appreciate the online help and am not sure what I will make yet.
Thank you Ann, I hope you find the right project for it. Always the hardest part!
Very soft and warm. Will order more next year.
wow they turned out great, thank you for sharing!
DH is very picky and I wasn't sure about these but after 1 wearing - he asked if I could get some more!
Thank you, I'm glad they passed the test! They'll definitely be in stock for a while more and then we're going to make another batch next season, so grab all you'd like!
I haven't used this yarn yet. I really like the color and have good feelings about it.
Happy to hear you like the color and feel so far! I hope you enjoy knitting it up
This yarn is fabulous for stranded colorwork! It's soft, it's fluffy, the color is saturated and beautiful. The stitches fill in nicely and no strands show through. I'm making a tubular cowl, so will effectively have 4 layers of fiber, and it's going to be warm and wonderful!
(the other two colors are Deep Harbor Blue and Gold, also on baby camel)
I saw this on ravelry too, the colors look awesome together. Thank you for sharing!
I love this yarn so much! It is so soft and beautiful, it just makes me happy to knit with it!
Glad to hear you are enjoying it, thank you for the review!
I just love this color!
Thank you Julie!
I started to knit the sweater with it and like it so far. Also, I liked the communication with Jon at ula-lia, how fast and efficiently he responded.
Thank you Vera! Looks great so far, hopefully you'll still have some cold weather by the time it finishes up!
I haven’t picked a project yet but I am very happy with the yarn. The color is gorgeous!
Thank you Julie! Just a heads up, if you use the cobalt and white together I'd reccomend a prewash of the cobalt to make sure things don't bleed together, but if you use them separately of course you're all good. Thank you again!
I bought this for a sweater - don't know which one yet, still looking. The color is so rich and beautiful - and the yarn is so soft. I've used baby camel from elsewhere before and I love working with that fiber. This yarn is actually better feeling than what I've used in the past. Can't recommend it highly enough!
Thank you, I'm happy you like the fiber! I think the baby camel wool might be one of the best kept secrets in exotic fibers.
Though I haven't worked with this yarn yet, it is beautiful in the skein! Very soft even before washing, and the natural color is gorgeous. Shipping was fast. I can't wait to get it on my needles!
Thank you Lori! Glad everything got out to you quickly as well
The Baby Camel Wool Yarn (Raspberry, lace weight) wasn’t for any particular project. I’ve purchased Jon’s yarn and used them for many projects and simply love how they knit up! I just liked the color, and seriously, who couldn’t find a project for such lovely yarn?
Thank you! I'm sure inspiration will strike soon for the right project
I haven’t started a project yet but I am very satisfied with the yarn.
Picking projects is always the hardest part, I hope you find something that fits!
Love love love this yarn. It is so soft and luscious. Really enjoying working with it.
Good to hear, thank you for the support and the review!
Seriously, these are the softest, warmest, most comfortable, breathable, squishiest, BEST SOCKS I've ever put on my feet! I haven't started knitting yet with my yak yarn, but when I do, I will be wearing these yak/sheep wool socks. I'm actually having some trouble with the idea of taking them off. It's excellent that I bought five pairs. LOVE THEM.
So happy you love them! I think the socks are a bit of a cult classic. They aren't the most popular in general, but those that get them end up loving them! I hope they get a lot of use in the cold days
I received my natural, undyed DK Cashmere at lightening speed. As soon as I opened the package I loved the color (or lack there of) and the feel! In the past, I've purchased the Cashmere Fingering, and the sweaters I've made are gorgeous. Now I'm going to try a heavier Cashmere. Thanks for the great customer service, Jon.
Good to hear Judy, thank you! And thanks for working with me to fix my shipping mistakes. January was a long month!
Love this yarn. Knits up very nice
Thank you, I hope you enjoy your projects!
fantastic yarn, fantastic service. a truly addictive experience
Thank you Joan!
