4/5Claire Published Monday, 12 February 2024 Alpaca Yarns Luxurious Fusion - 4ply Yarn is a really nice summer yarn to work with. I've used it twice now for tops, and it has the most beautiful drape and subtle lustre. It glides nicely on the needles thanks to the silk, and it doesn't split when knitting. I find it quite effortless. It's hard to tell from the hank, but the linen doesn't take the colour as well as the silk so it gives the finished garment a subtle melange effect. It's also a bit rustic as the linen fibres are grassy and stick out a lot. It kind bugs me, and it's hard to resist pulling them out while knitting, but I don't really notice them once the garment is finished and blocked. Overall I really like working with it and have found it a good substitute for 100% silk patterns.

5/5AS Published Thursday, 19 October 2023 I needed a thinner needle with a bigger eye than what I had to sew in ends and this set is perfect! The cable eye makes it so easy to thread the yarn through.

4/5Lorraine Published Thursday, 7 September 2023 Not as smooth as the KnitPro needles I usually use. However, it was only for a few rows using this needle so persevered. Light weight needles which suited my hands perfectly.
