I really like the colors of the yarn in this mix. The colors are really the main reason that this yarn ended up in my stash. They just seem really rich and vibrant. The yarn does have a nice feel to it. It isn't too scratchy, It isn't the softest thing I've ever felt, but I do think that I could wear it close to the skin.
I'm not quite sure what I'll do with this yet. Most of the time when I see this yarn online the advertisement mentions that it is great felting yarn. I'm not so sure what I would knit for felting with it, but I only have about 350 yards total. Maybe that would make a small pillow or cushion cover. Maybe a pair of mitten, I think I have a pattern for felted mittens somewhere.

Yum! I love your YPF - the pics and colors are always so pretty!
I have made several scarves out of Unikat and just love them! Your shade is lovely...
Oh that is beautiful and like so many things not available here. :)
I'm looking forward to a FO with this :)
Could you make clogs out of it or maybe there isn't enough yardage. The color is really nice Mittens would be good but do you ever wear that heavy of a mitten in your weather? I gotta see that stash closet!!!!
Love Unikat! just bought some in shades of blue to make a baby jeans jacket. I've seen it made up into beautiful mittens..
Very pretty--I had never heard of it til now. It looks soft!
Love it!! Too bad we couldn't use mittens around here, they would be awesome in it.
This so isn't helping my attempt to limit stash growth! It's gorgeous.
Yup, gotta agree with ya there, the colors are so pretty. :)
