Eco friendly option

This yarn is very similar to the traditional Woolease. The texture is a little different but it works up easily. It is reasonably priced with classic color options.
Held yarn double for bulky wt accessories which the recipient loved for Minnesota winters.
Hopefully, all Lion Brand yarns with synthetic fibers will be from recycled materials in the near future.

Great material

I made a sweater with this. The skeins are just big enough that you don’t have a ton of connections in the finished piece. I didn’t have a single knot or any flaws in the yarn, and it’s soft and comfortable to wear

The proper "bluebonnet" blue

I'm knitting the Big B end National Park hat from Nancy Bates' book, "Knitting the National Parks. I researched and ordered a lot of yarns from different companies to match all the colors in the pattern, and Wool Ease Recycled Royal Blue is just right to embroider the bluebonnets that are iconic in Texas and at this park. As you can see from the picture, I have only gotten two and a half flowers embroidered, but they look fine to me and the yarn is easy to work with.

Love this yarn!!

Great yarn, nice and soft, doesn't split easily. I also love that it's made from recycled product. Crocheted it double and it looks great! :)

Nice to work with

Soft and easy to work with. Bought this yarn to make a cape - nice drape. Love that it’s recycled.

Soft yarn!

I'm really happy at how soft this yarn is! It's a little thinner than I expected, so I'm going to crochet two skeins together. The black color is a nice strong shade.
