I love this yarn! This is the second time I've bought it. The first lot I bought was wound into a cake because it was I a skin and I didn't have the gear to do that myself. This time I forgot about that, bought the skin and when it arrived I thought, "now what!?" It took me about 2 hours to get it into a cake (I don't know if that's the correct terminology but I'm sure you understand) without the thing with arms that the skein goes onto to hold it out so you can wind it into a cake. Anyway, I was sure I was going to have a lot of trouble with I tangling and thought I may have to cut it at some stage to get it untangled. I was wrong. It did get very tangled but by being patient and gentle with it, jiggling it to loosen it up, it didn't get knotty at all. It is so silky and smooth to work with and lovely to knit with. I'm looking forward to buying more, I will ask the shop to wind it for me next time. I ordered the yarn online, it was sent quickly and was well packaged. I haven't had dealings with this shop before but I'll be happy to buy from them again.
