I wish I'd known this before I bought so much yarn. However, I'll use it and then opt for a different brand. What brand of lace yarn do you recommend? Yikes!

It is unevenly spun, thick and thin, and sometimes fuzzy. I would not recommend it, though the merino lace may be of higher quality. Yes, the colors are quite lovely, but even here, when using handpaintedyarns, I would recommend staggering the yarn every two rows with two separate skeins, to avoid pooling.
