“I’ve decided it’s time to try Knit Picks Imagination and Felici sock yarns. I really like the new Felici colorways…For the Imagination sock yarn, I’ve been pleasantly surprised on Ravelry or in person by colorways that previously didn’t impress me much. The colorways I’ve always liked are…well wait, I really like them ALL to varying degrees.” www.jmfknits.blogspot.com, January 2009

"My favorite thing to knit is socks. They’re small, portable, and they can be as wild as I want. When I found out about Imagination, I was thrilled. Alpaca, my favorite fiber, to make socks, my favorite project! What could be better? The fact that it's machine washable, that's what! It's the icing on the cake for this alpaca fan!"
-Kerin D., Knit Picks Garment Designer

“I just received my order, and I must say I love your products. I am so thrilled with the yarn I ordered, Imagination in Gingerbread House, Wicked Witch and Damsel and Swish Worsted in Lemongrass Heather. I can barely wait to start all my new projects (just have to finish the one I have nearly finished with Andean Silk in Cinnamon). Thanks for the great products and fast shipping.” Michelle K., Knit Picks customer

I really love this yarn! The colors are so beautiful that its hard to just pick one favorite. I've decided to use the yarn to make the Beekeeper's Quilt and it works excellent! I've also used the Unicorn to make a cowl. It was so much fun to work with!
