Such a pretty color and so soft!
I loved putting this puzzle together. It is harder than I liked but I put it together
This is a nice puzzle. It gives you a challenge to put together. love to put together puzzles
Patterns are always concise and easy to follow.
Pattern was super easy to follow and worked up so very cute.
I love the quality of the yarns and the fun way they sell them. I just wish they would put more variety in the bigger orders but otherwise, I will continue to order these again and again!
I love the quality of the yarn and the fun method they are being sent out. I just wish there was a little more variety on bigger orders. I would still order these over and over again anyways.
I messed up on my last order .I ended up I had ordered the wrong pinks. I blame me. I have lost my urge to buy more . the points use to be more worth piling up . now I can only get what ever is left on the list . I used my points for free shipping . not any more , so what`s the point.
Beautiful color!
It’s a great kit. I’m having fun making the blanket. Can’t wait to see the finished product. I would definitely recommend it.
Simply just love it. How wonderful and original
This yarn worked great for the baby blanket I made.
I'm enjoying doing this project. It's more than I have ever done before, but I am loving it.
Loved to use tis sparkle yarn for Holloween projects.
love them

This yarn is incredible. It works up really nice. Only thing that gave me fits was the grid pattern. As a visual person I got off track so many times because the picture on the gridhad the light color was the dark yarn and the dark color on the grid was the light yarn.
I was so excited to get this kit but once I started to make it, I realized that it isn’t soft at all. I was going to make this as a baby afghan but I would not use it for my baby. Sad
This is the worst yarn I ever bought. It just knots up.- big knots as I tried to pull it out of the skein. I spent more time trying to get the knots out than I did knitting. I am done with it.
I want to enjoy knitting- no way with this yarn
We are sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with our Mary Maxim Natural Alpaca Tweed yarn. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the knots and difficulty in knitting. We would be happy to assist you and make things right. Please reach out to us at info@marymaxim.com and we will do our best to resolve this issue for you.
I purchased this yarn to make prayer shawls. The first thing I noticed about it is that it seems quite thin for a worsted weight yarn; it feels very light, like a sport weight yarn. The color looked beautiful in the skein, but it looks more like a burlap bag as the shawl is getting bigger. And it looks like it has a white cat's hair all over it, with little lint balls. I won't purchase this yarn again.
Hi Dianna, we're sorry to hear about your experience with our yarn. We understand your frustration and appreciate your feedback. Please reach out to our customer support team for assistance and a possible solution. info@marymaxim.com
This yarn has been a go-to for me in the construction of baby blankets, including a pink one like above for my Granddog Eileen. She loves it and likes to be snugged up in her pink dog bed bing covered up at the beginning of her snooze, but rearranging it more comfortably later.
I love this yarn so much that I purchased more and created a beautiful shawlette, head warmer, and men's scarf! My mom even wants a shawlette now in the same Alpaca Tweed. So soft, lays nicely, and is easy to hand wash. Warm enough for cold snowy days and windy days! Can't say enough positive about this yarn!
This yarn knits up very nicely and easily cared for following instructions on the label. The fleck in the fibers often comes to the surface while knitting, however.
I love this yarn. My fingers have some arthritis and this yarn is very gentle through my hands. It is so soft and knits and crochets beautifully. The alpaca gives it extra warmth and beauty. I will gift the afghan made with this yarn with confidence and assurance that it will be received with joy!
Love it
Quality products. Always a pleasure to order from Mary Maxim. Fast delivery.
Another color I picked out for my granny square afghsn. These wool yarns are all brilliant colors.
These are all for a granny square afghan pattern I decide to make in this pretty yarn.
These are all beautiful yarns for my sweater patterns. It is why I decided to buy the sweater kirs.
These wool colors are so pretty. It is great for my afghan pattern.
This is the same beautiful wool yarn included in some of kits that I wanted for an Afghan pattern.
Beautiful colors and easy to work with. I'm using the recommended needles and wish I'd used smaller ones to get a denser drape.
The alpaca made a very warm yet lightweight hat. Definitely easy to hook and finished hat was appreciated but the recipient, sadly I forgot to take a picture of this one or the green one that went to the same individual.
Just really love this yarn for my sweate.
Soft and easy to knit. Made a beautiful shawl for my son.
Beautiful color and feel. Looking forward to making a scarf from it.
Love the color and texture of the yarn, but can be a little difficult at times, as it does split easily and there are some areas that have clumps or threads not spun together. I am almost finished with my project and is turning out to be very nice looking.
Très bonne laine je ne connaissait pas l'alpaga
Gorgeous thread, love everything about it! Would order 20 more if I had a project I needed
First time for this. I just "had" to try it. Very soft.
All my orders from your store have been most excellent. I have never been disappointed from all the service involved when ordering yarn eg. tracking, up dated info etc.
