Cute! Fun and easy to put together.
Great directions and final product is beautiful
They turned out so cute. Love them
This is the first time I’ve used Leda Yarn and am pleased with it. I plan to use the yarn on “The Red Scarf Project” to support women fighting heart disease. I can get almost three scarfs from one ball of yarn! That is way I purchased more of the yarn. Wilma D. Hurst
Love all of it, perfect sale and just what i needed for our festival season ❣️
tried a sample and I ran into a problem so I stopped until I can get some help with it. It looks like it's going to be very pretty. Just wish you had the colors in greens for my friend.
I bought this blue to replace the cadet blue that I did not care for. I think this will be a must better shade of blue.
Beautiful, soft yarn. Nice to work with. I'm very happy with my purchase.
