I am pleased with this yarn, it knits up well with a good even nordic pattern. There are 2 reasons I haven't given it 5 stars.
1. I had one ball that had a join in it and it wasn't joined with the correct colour resulting in me having to wind a chunk off the ball to ensure the pattern ran correctly on the jumper.
2. I have had to purchase an extra ball as I can't knit both sleeves to match with the pattern running correctly, annoyingly I seem to have a lot of one colour left from every ball
Having said the negatives, the jumper is going to look fabulous when it's finished. But just felt I should make these points - will be knitting gloves and hat with all the excess as I won't mind where the colour changes occur on these and it's far too lovely to waste.
