5/5Lynne Published Saturday, 2 December 2023 I like knitting with this Sirdar 4-ply, and this red is a lovely bright red - it's name is quite apt. On-line service absolutely fantastic - thank you so much for the prompt delivery.

5/5Sue Published Thursday, 4 May 2023 I ordered my wool late evening. First thing the next morning I received a phone call from Ribbonrose to explain “not all my wool was in stock, and is it urgent? or can I wait a week”. Great service. I was happy to wait a week. And the wool arrived. And it is just so true to colour, and feels lovely. I am looking forward to starting my project soon.
