from 68 reviewsThis yarn has lots of tweed specks, but is still soft. I have made several hats with this yarn and they come out really beautiful.
I purchased this yarn to use for a Norwegian cardigan sweater. The colors were perfect and it is a lovely yarn to work with. The yarn arrived in a timely manner.
This is the second time I've ordered Scout. I fell in love instantly. It knits up so pretty and soft. The only downside is that I'm in the Netherlands and import duties and shipping are high, but you best believe I'm already saving up to order some more!
I need a dependable worsted yarn for some gift hats. Germantown never disappoints. Fun to knit and comfortable to wear.
Love your patterns on the yarn as well.
I’m a complete Camper fan girl, and love swatching and planning colorwork sweaters and accessories. Having the physical samples of the yarn is awesome to support color decisions! Plus, they are just really fun to play with.
Kellbourne woolens Scout is a wonderful yarn to knit with. I love the depth of color and it knits up beautifully.
This yarn is easy to work with and beautiful.
The yarn is great. The colour work well with each other. Doing a shawl using 7 colours . I have purchased the yarn a few times. A large plus I have not encountered the yarn to knots in them on the whole which is more then I can say for a lot of the yarn I work with.
Nice pattern, well thought out, as all your patterns are.
Knit up a Opa cardigan for my husband, the yarn was so comfortable to work with and is comfortable to wear.
Scout is a favorite to knit with and the colors are stunning! So cozy!
Camper is a great yarn! I love the way it feels, the texture of the spin is consistent and knits up to a beautiful fabric. And, I haven't had any tangles or twists in my skeins. I bought the color-way Orchid Heather; its such a beautifully nuanced color choice. The color and yarn combo give the final product an irresistible sheen.
I bought Germantown because it was recommended for the Herman the Hermit Crab pattern. I’m just learning to crochet. Germantown is a twisted fiber of 4 strands twisted together and I find it difficult to work with because the 4 strands keep separating. Might be due to being a beginner but it is frustrating. Also priced pretty high so the Hermit Crab costs $64 to make… kinda pricey IMO.
I’ve knit two sweaters with Lucky Tweed—so I’m pretty sure I “know” the yarn, but being able to see and feel the yarn is the best. In fact, I’ll be adding at least 2 more lucky tweed sweaters to my wardrobe this winter! Thank you for making them available.
