Please remember that every effort is taken to represent the true colors of the yarn and that monitor settings will vary.
A note about biodegradable Polyamid from Schoppel: Whereas other synthetic fibers persist in the environment for decades before they degrade completely, natural composting processes decompose our biodegradable polyamid fiber in around five years. As with other natural fibers, the degradation process does not occur in daily use.
Sturdy, gorgeous, wash/dry and wears wonderfully (my main criterion). Gift pairs knit up quickly in simple vanilla patterns; inherent color changes add the beautiful interest.Gift recipients (all ages/genders) adore these luscious easy-care beauties. US1 or 1.5 for leg & US0 for cuff/heel/foot/toe. Well worth it! (I add rubberized-paint dots to bottom of soles for easy grip on wood floors.)

Gorgeous!
Have used this yarn before and know that it knits up beautifully and is a pleasure to work with. I have not started my socks from this newest purchase, I looking for a pattern for a "special yarn"...
We're thrilled to know you have enjoyed knitting with Zauberball in the past. It is such a fun yarn to knit with, whether it's a great pair of socks, a beautiful shawl, or another project in need of a splash of color. Hopefully when you've found the perfect pattern for your special ball, you'll consider coming back to update your review. Thanks for your purchase and support of The Woolly Thistle!
