This is a really nice yarn, much softer than it appears to be in the skein. It did become thinner in spots, but not extremely so. It is a single ply, woolen spun yarn, and would be great for felted projects, as well as reglar knitting. Of course, the striping would turn out much differently in a full-sized garment than it did in this meandering scarf done with short rows.
