Scheepjes - Scheepjes Pastel Softfun Colour Pack - 12 x 20 Grams (1 Box)

Lovely selection of colours. Great yarn for crochet. If doing large project the yarn is small bundles but just what I needed

I bought this with a particular crochet project in mind, which would make use of nearly all of the 80 different colours in this pack. I love Scheepjes yarn, but had not previously used Metropolis. It is a thinner yarn than I was expecting, so I am using a smaller crochet hook than I am used but, but now well into my project and it is working well. I particularly like how easy it is to start a new ball from the middle, and I'm just using tape to tighten the middle band as I use it, as it is important that I keep the colour information as I am switching colours all of the time, and it is confusing enough without losing the labels. I love the colour selection and the slight marling that is present in some of the colours. The price I paid made it really good value too, and I would probably not have proceeded had it been selling at the full recommended retail price, simply because this would have made my project unaffordable.

Great Yarn as always from Scheepjes. Good price for this pack too

Order arrived on time in excellent condition. I am planning to make a multicoloroured shawl so this set is ideal for the purpose. The colors are beautiful, the quality is good.

I had read in the reviews that this was smaller than people expected, but was still caught off guard! The whole box is a similar size to a jigsaw puzzle box. But the wool looks lovely, and my mother-in-law (who is a keen knitter) was absolutely delighted when she opened her gift this morning, not phased in the slightest that this is more of a box of samples. No doubt it will be used to create some beautiful stripy/patchwork items or toy clothes. I got it to go with the book “Knitted Animal Friends” by Louise Crowther, as she recommends Scheepjes Stonewashed yarn. However, although the 10g balls of wool may be enough for making some of the clothes, there isn’t enough of each colour to knit a whole animal.

Excellent pack of mini balls of wool. The yarn is a soft cotton and easy to work with a wide range of colours. There is enough in the pack to make a decent sized blanket. Good quality, does not split when working.

Lovely mix of colours

I have worked with metropolis before and needed another colour pack for a project I am going to do. Did a bit of searching on line and came across this pack which was around 70% cheaper than other retailers. Arrived within 24 hours of ordering. This yarn is so soft and beautiful colours.

Un paquete de 80 ovillos distintos que es una maravilla, sobre todo al precio al que ha estado. La lana es resistente pero suave. Esta compuesta por 75% merino extra fine + 25% nylon. Los ovillos son de 10g (40m). Se puede mirar la pagina de Scheepjes para ver qué se puede hacer con ella. Recomiendo el CAL Festival of lights, que usa el paquete más dos ovillos extra de tamaño normal.

I bought this just to see this. It's cute. I wish these were bigger thou.

Sehr schöne Wolle, große Farbauswahl. Besonders die Riverwashed Knäuel gefallen mir sehr gut. Die Wolle ist schön weich und deshalb ideal für meine Patchwork-Decke, die ich gerade stricke. Hab das Garnpaket nochmal nachbestellt. :-)

Using this yarn to make a blanket ( Sophie’s Universe) Pretty good to work with. Only a small amount of splitting

Sehr schönes Garn. Und diese Farbvielfalt! Wirklich ‚lecker‘, wie der holländische Verkäufer irgendwo lobt. Ich schließe mich an.
