This yarn is a good knitting weight (slightly thick worsted) and has a nice body to it. The color is true to the photograph shown, albeit with a very slight yellow/tan tint. The cashmere/merino blend is very soft, although not quite as soft as some other cashmere blends I have found. My one complaint is that the yarn has occasional long, scratchy fibers interspersed throughout its length. I pulled them out as I knit - they were more annoying than anything else, but because I knit for other people, I didn't want my customers to see these stragglers and think they were cat fur poking out of the yarn.
