Tencel is a delicious and soft yarn with a silky sheen.
This yarn is in a league of its own and feels wonderful to work with, be it for knitting or crocheting.
Also, the yarn is very strong and holds its shape.
Information about the 'Tencel' fibre:
What is it?
Tencel is an organically sustainable natural material made from wood chips, primarily from beech trees and eucalyptus. The wood is FSC certified, sourced from natural forestry thinning and residue from other wood production. Tencel is the outermost sustainable materiale manufactured with the greatest consideration for the environment.
The uniqueness of Tencel.
The composition of the fiber from beech trees and eucalyptus makes Tencel fibre very pleasant against the skin. The smooth structure of the fibers make the yarn especially nice and gentle for your skin.
It is softer than silk and smoother on the skin than wool and cotton in addition to a great absorption ability.

Since Prism yarns - Delicato was not distributed (nor manufactured) anymore I was on the search for what seemed the "holy grail" i.e. Tencell yarn. I was sooooo happy to find the Tencel/Bamboo yarn at Hobbii. When it arrived I promptly decided to order some more. It feels like pure luxury, knits lovely and drapes fluidly.
You made my day...no, you made my future addiction if you keep on producing this yarn.

I love this yarn! It is everything you could want. Beautiful drape, excellent texture and the sheen makes you believe that it’s a $300 sweater. It’s my new favorite yarn! ❤️ I bought enough for 2 of the deep back with sleeves sweaters.
I would like to also mention that the package arrived in less than ten days and I could track it all the way to my mail box. Very happy customer.

Ok. At first i was a bit disappointed. It was thinner than i thought. So there it sat on my table. The color, rose, was just soooo beautiful. So i just played with it a little. I tried crocheting with two strands...yay for me! It has everything you need to make a shawl, kimono, etc. Texture, great drape, INCREDIBLE sheen. Pretty near a perfect yarn. I ADORE it.

I"m reviewing this on feel alone as I haven't started my project yet. I have a couple other projects to finish first. This yarn is so soft I can't wait to wear it around my neck. I plan to make the Architexture Shawl with it and as soon as I get a little bit done, I will review it again and let you know what it's like to work with.

I’m already in love with this yarn and I’ve only just taken it out of the bag! The colours are stunning and I can’t stop touching it.... the skinfeel of this yarn tells me I’m making something for myself first and foremost; that’s the ultimate thumbs up!!!
