Very disappointed and frustrated! I purchased the Pegasus to complete a blanket I was working on for my grama who lost everything in the Santa Rosa fires. These colours are so perfect for her and the self striping was convenient for the project. While I expected the colours to start at different points in the overall colour scheme in a new skein, i was disappointed to find that they were in a completely different order. As I worked further into it, I found that there was an entire colourway missing (the blue/teal). I was forced to splice in order to make some sense of the project, but it still just wasn't working right. The coral section had been repeated where the blue should have been. Worse, it had a knotted join to the darker purple and lacked transition colour.
After examining several skeins at a local fabric store today, I found that the one I'd ordered from here was indeed poorly manufactured. I went ahead and purchased more (and for far less $) at the store and will be ripping out the many hours of work I put in with this one. Such a huge waste of time and money!!
