Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This soft 100% wool yarn on a cone is ideal for machine knitting on a standard machine (and possibly fine gauge too). It is perfect for lightweight sweaters and vests and is also ideal for (fairly) fine lace. It is soft enough to be worn next to the skin by many (though not all). It is available in a pleasant but limited range of colours.
Wool is a strong, resilient fibre, but this yarn contains no nylon, so its wear-resistance is somewhat limited for items like socks and work gloves and mittens. While it is suitable for socks and mittens for gentle use, hard use would likely be inadvisable.

Made of classic 100-percent pure virgin wool, this soft, super-fine yarn works great for knitting socks, scarves, fingerless gloves, and other winter wear. The Classic LB 1878, named for the year that Lion Brand started in the yarn business, can be used on its own or combined with other Lion Brand yarns for a varied look and texture. The American-made lightweight fiber comes wound on a cone, making it a terrific value for machine knitting or hand knitting. As needed, hand wash finished projects in warm or cool water, then dry flat, not in a machine. The knitting gauge: 26 stitches by 32 rows equals 4 inches (10 cm) on size 3 (3-1/2 mm) needles; the crochet gauge: 23 single crochets by 25 rows equals 4 inches (10 cm) on a size E-4 (3-1/2 mm) hook. Available in a variety of gorgeous shades, the yarn provides 2045 yards (17-3/5 ounces/500 grams) and measures approximately 5 by 5 by 6-1/5 inches.
