Beautiful yarn!!! My one only thing is the color ” million dollar red” every time I order is always different color. Is hard when working on something that needs 2 balls. But still one of my favorite yarn:)

I purchased Aloha Blue yarn. The color is so vivid and gorgeous. This fingering weight bamboo yarn feel like butter in your hands and is a dream to use to crochet. You will love this yarn!

I am pretty sure I have every color available in Be so Fine yarn. The possibilities with this yarn are endless. It is silky and soft and not hard to work with if you are new to #1 fingering weight yarn. Grab a pattern (any of them) and a ball of Be So Fine and create beauty. I will not buy my yarns anywhere else.
