Superwash merino yarn
Short time between order and delivery. The wool was well packaged. The wool itself is great to knit with. Will use Katia Crafts again.

Great yarn!
I love the choice of colours and the yarn is great to knit with! The only negative for me was that prices don’t include tax, so the project ended up costing more than I’d expected.
