I LOVE the banana fibre! I use it in my weaving projects and in my classes and my students always enjoy using it!
I quite love this yarn. I would have given an outstanding rating but one of the three skeins is not very soft. Oh well - the other two are amazing, and I look forward to including them in a scarf with some incredibly soft merino from Uruguay.
I was excited to receive my yarn and I wasn't disappointed. Its beautiful and I am now designing how I will use it.
This was so beautiful hiding in the bag and when free of said bag and standing alone on its looks, still just as beautiful.
I have enjoyed this yarn so much! I bought it on a whim just to see what it is like. It is softer & heavier than wool. The color is rich. I don't know how it compares in terms of warmth but it knits up beautifully with lots of tufts & texture. It needs no fancy design elements - it is stand alone yarn.
