Kent worsted - a joy to work with!

I am in the process of knitting the Oban cardigan by Thea Colman for a friend, and this yarn is a pleasure! Feels good in the hand, looks great in the pattern. Would definitely recommend.

Talk about a nostalgic yarn in the best possible way

I ordered the Kent DK when a friend asked me to knit her a pair of 40"s style garter slippers which are made with a double strand. I remembered making these very practical, but not attractive, accessories as an 8-10 year old in the 40's. This yarn was perfect for that project and felt great in my hands. My friend is delighted and says they're Cute!
