Milky Way will take your projects to new heights with a heavenly made-in-Italy blend of 53% wool and 47% acrylic. Warmth, softness, and comfort are just a few characteristics that perfectly align in Milky Way.
This yarn has an otherworldly structure and dimension thanks to its color play. The main color acts as a base, and three more shades that spiral around the main one are then added, creating a compelling striping effect. The palette is mainly powdery and delicate with the addition of a few bolder and darker colors.
The generous thickness of Milky Way will allow you to create your projects in a speedy manner, making it perfect for beginners and seasoned crafters alike. We envision chunky blankets and pillow covers, stylish sweaters and vests, warm beanies, and scarves.
Embark on your new cosmic adventure with Milky Way.
The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2476-419). Find more information about the certification at https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/

My new obsession! This is one of the most beautiful yarns I laid eyes on: it has a really special structure and the colors are out of this world!
I don't find it scratchy as I have just finished making a beanie and I cannot stop wearing it, it's too cute!
This yarn will surprise you!
Alissa
Fantastic yarn to work with, it has the rustic look and feel without the scratchy texture. So so warm and very fast to whip up a project!

I purchased, and am knitting up color 09-Black Hole. It is a lovely color, blacker than the photo with more muted jewel tones. I think I'm knitting a poncho, of sorts. I won't know until I finish the second panel. The plushness makes this yarn squishy soft and warm. I'll post photos when it's complete. ...On a crafty note, I tried crocheting a swatch and the outcome was undesirable.

Beautiful yarn, soft and knits up quickly. Colour true to photo on website. A little challenging to knit without “catching” fibres with the needles, so may be better suited to crocheted items, but overall lovely!

I recently bought this yarn and need a change of pace. It's also #5 bulky weight so I knew it would work up quickly.
It's 53% wool and 47% nylon. I don't like working with wool unless it's superwash wool. I can't stand the scratchiness even though I'm not allergic. I hoped, because there was so much acrylic, it wouldn't be scratchy but that wasn't the case. I wouldn't buy this yarn again for this reason and the reason for the three stars.
However the color I used was gorgeous! I like the small amounts of color that are wrapped around it to give the main color a way to show off.
