I love the colour range in the Country 8-ply, and the fact that it is 100% pure new wool. I am enjoying knitting this wool, but given the recommendation for it to be knitted on 3.25 / 4mm needles I am finding the finished product rather dense. The tension is okay, and this garment is to be gifted, but I will give it a wash in wool wash before giving it, hoping it will soften up a little. Care needs to be taken not to split the wool, as it is very obvious when it does occur, and I have needed to knit back a couple of times to rectify this. None of the above would stop me using this brand, and in fact I have another couple of garments already planned for Cleckheaton Country 8ply wool. I might try knitting a size down and upping the needle size so that a looser knit is achieved. As always these things are very personal and vary from one knitter to another, which is what makes hand knitting so special.Read full review
