This yarn is honestly fun.

This yarn is honestly fun to work with. It is definitely soft, doesn't split, and is a really nice weight. I love how the colors line up when you stitch, that was an added bonus!

I have used this yarn to crochet a simple scarf. It works up so easily. No yarn splitting, no snagging and the result is so perfect. Smooth and soft finish, against the skin.

Sport Weight is One of the Best Weights!

I love how versatile DGY Sport Weight Twist is. It makes a gorgeous and drapey plain weave on my rigid heddle loom, nice campact winter accessories to throw in your pocket and onto your head... And great yardage.

Two skeins will yield 1 woven scarf or a hat and fingerles mitts set in no time!

Green sets are made in Tropical Jungle & Mulberry Dreamscape while the peachy-pink set was made using Pomegranate Fizz paired with the 2ply sport weight Holland Tulips. Perfect gifts!

Love the Drape!

Really loving the drape of this yarn. I was able to play with it to design the knit Japanese Knot Bag for the June Yarn of the Month Club and fell in love... Then made a Zig Zag Hat and Chevron Alder Fingerless Mitts by pairing 1 skein of it in Holland Tulips with 1 skein of a 2023 Yarn of the month, Pomegranate Sport Twist and adore the results!
