universal classic shades
Has anyone knit with universal classic shades? I want to make sure it isn't itchy and my LYS doesn't carry it. I'm also considering using universal long print. Any opinions?
thanks!

As a matter of fact, I have!

I made the "Noro" striped scarf with the Classic Shades. If you click the link it goes to my post here in KH. I am very sensitive to wool and itchy in general and unfortunately it seems a little itchy to me which bummed me out since it came out so beautiful!

I have the long print, but haven't used it yet. You could always get a few skeins of either/both of them and if you can't use it then you can gift it. I used two skeins for the scarf.
