Love it! Santi is great to work with and I like the lavender tone of this gray.
Such a lovely yarn and the best and cutest yarn store! How lucky San Diego is to have it! I just used this Illimani Yarn Santi in Lilac season on my first knitting project- the Sophie scarf in large. One skein is perfect for this scarf. It’s so cute I love it!
SO SO lovely!!! Great drape and super soft! Will definitely buy again:)
this yarn is so soft ive gotten 3 already, easily my favorite yarn by far!!!
New knitter here, so at first this yarn looked strange to me. I decided to take one of Apricot's yarn summer courses, and to my delight, this yarn was PERFECT for the class. We made the Emma top by CocoKnits, and it turned out SO soft, and the texture is fun and adds interest without being too "loud" for my taste. The fabric it creates is perfect for cool San Diego days. The nice thing about this shop is that they have samples of most (or perhaps all) of their yarns, so you can get an idea of how it knits up before you buy it. Highly recommend it!
grateful to be able to buy and print Ravelry patterns at Apricot. This is more convenient for me, and I get the benefit of good advice if I have questions about the pattern.
Gorgeous yarn! Baah! Yarn doesn’t disappoint! Smooth knitting; beautiful defined stitches. Happy project! ❤️
These were recommended to me for my size one needles by an older employee and the work great. The shopping experience was overall great except that one of the younger employees who usually has space buns sort of implied that I was cheap for not buying a sweater quantity of yarn on the spot. Don’t really wanna come back after that which was sad because the store is beautiful and the older employees are a delight to talk to.
Everyone there was amazing and helpful. They helped me pick out the yarn for my pattern and spun it for me!! Amazing.
