January 2011 - Lucy Neatby's Celestial Merino

They're done. It took a bit of doing since I was very focused on getting some SKA socks done so my review yarn took a while.

11 01 29 celestial merino complete

This is a great yarn to knit - top class. It's firm with a good twist and both soft and springy. Good stitch definition and no problems with splitting or frayed spots. I couldn't ask for better.

I was also very keen on the way the yarn was dyed. There are no stripes and no pooling - just flashes of colour. In the photos it looks as if there is barber poling, but in person, you don't really see it.
