Darn Good Mega Skein Bliss!

Darn Good Yarn has the most exotic and amazing yarns! I bought the mega skeins of “Frost Bite” and it is to beautiful for words! The mega skeins of purple and pink are even more awesome with the dark grey color mixed in. I had fun winding it into a large ball using my yarn swift and professional yarn ball winder. If I can get the video shortened I’ll add it to my review as well. I can’t tell you how awesome it is working with this yarn. My aunt will be so thrilled when she receives her homemade goodies made from this yarn. She deserves to wear lace and pearls but instead wears the dress of a farm wife. This will add a big touch of elegance for her. I don’t care if she uses/wears the stuff around the house i kind of hope she does when she has no where to go. It does no good to be “put away for good occasions”. I believe everyone deserves to feel pretty and special and well loved.

Absolutely beautiful yarn!

This yarn far exceeded my expectations - it’s much brighter and sparklier than the photos and at an amazing price!

Gorgeous watercolor-like colors

I was so super excited to see these beautiful skeins of Tidal Pool (the swatch photo is the most color-correct of them all) because the colors look so pretty together. I was planning on making a plain cardigan, but the colors are close enough in value that a fun stitch pattern may be in order!
