Whirl Gradient Yarn Cake, Earl Grey Custard – 1000m Premium 4-Ply Fingering Cotton Acrylic Blend Yarn for Knitting and Crochet Shawls, 215g

This is my fifth whirl and absolutely love it. Colour changes subtle and whole shawl done with one ball. Easy to crochet with and love the way the wool is fused when colour changing. You really can’t see the join. As I’m doing one shawl, I can’t wait to finish it so I can start a new colour way. I’ve also managed to get a couple of whirls for £5 when most are around £16/£17…🥳🥳🥳

I am generally not a fan of fingering weight yarn, mostly because I find it difficult to crochet with, but this is so beautiful it has converted me. I’m about to order a third ball because they are so luscious. The picture is a simple granny shawl using a 4mm hook. I’m a substantial human at 6ft and this shawl is big enough to cover my frame so there’s enough yarn in one cake for a shawl. My height means I need shawls to be longer so I normally need more yarn and I was concerned there wouldn’t be enough. The colour transitions are the most beautiful I’ve seen in a yarn, subtle and truly invisible. The yarn is beautifully soft too which is important to me because I’m a sensitive soul when it comes to fabric. Using the 4mm makes the shawl more fluid, for a scarf or other garment you’d most likely need a 3mm so if a small hook doesn’t work for you, this might not be for you. If you pull from the centre it can knot towards the very centre, when I pull from the outside no knots, but I like centre first so I tend towards that and just deal with the knots. Overall I love this yarn, and despite the high price tag it’s a substantial amount of yarn. Oh and the invisible joins they reference are very clever, you get a sort of fluffy bit rather than a knot which when crocheted into the garment is really almost imperceptible. Just in love with this yarn.

Excellent yarn for crochet. Beautiful colours and a good price. Very happy.

Beautiful yarn, very delicate colours and texture

Great wool and being used to make a shawl. What I would say is that although there are not any knots in it you can see where they have tried to fuse it together. So you end up with some parts that look messy. However overall the colours look lovely and it is great for shawls or scarves. I think the wool is great for value for money as these cakes can be extremely expensive from certain suppliers. It is not especially soft. That's the mix of the acrylic and cotton for a fingerling weight. However it does produce a lovely drape. .

Amazing yarn at an amazing price !!! I love Scheepjes- it’s my favourite yarn So when I see it at such crazy prices I have to buy two

I have not used this scheepjes whirl yet,but I love the product, it makes beautiful shawls, soft,I like the size of the yarn, never find knots,an no splitting,or breaking of the yarn, I forsee no problem. Delivery was on time, an item as described by seller!

I’m making a lacy crochet shawl with this yarn. So easy to work with, doesn’t split and the few joins are not noticeable. Impressed with the quality and drape of the fabric made. Lovely gradient colours.

No es tan suave como otros tipos que he provado, hice un chal triangular y el color es muy bonito, tiene tres cabos

編みやすくて、めっちゃ可愛いです✨ セーターを編んでますが、2玉くらいで出来上がるかと思います！

綺麗な色でベスト編みましたが良かったです。

一枚のショールが糸の替えなく編めます。このシリーズの糸は編んでいてとても楽しいです。

While crocheting a shawl, there were two breaks in the yarn which is very frustrating in the middle of a project. Also, the color changes in the yarn are very sloppy. It’s not an issue for the reseller, but the manufacturer (Scheepjees). Not my favourite yarn. Thank you.
