Because of all the shades of colours they've had, I finally bought a bunch of Loops & Threads "Impeccable" yarn a couple of weeks ago. Once I got it home, I finally got to have a solid look at both the label and the diameter of the yarn itself.

And I have to say, this *cannot* be Worsted Weight (Size 4). Optimistically, it's a skinny DK (Size 3), but more realistically (and also according to several friends who have been crocheting and knitting for far, *far* longer than I have), it's a slightly thicker Fingering (Size 2).

In the first picture, you can see my swatch of the Tunisian Double-Knit Stitch (which looks like the front of knitted Stockinette on both sides), which I've used a 3.5mm afghan hook for a superb result. Far tighter than the 5.0mm hook the label recommended.

The original plan was to use all three shades of green and the lighter shade of brown (the four colours I'd bought originally) for a colourwork scarf, but my creativity latched onto the thin diameter of the yarn and wouldn't let go of the idea of using some of this yarn to make a TDKS scarf, and the green shades would work *perfectly* for that. Three stripes along the scarf's length, along with a bit of stuff along each end, should look great!

The darker shade of brown came home with me yesterday, to make a far, *far* simpler two-tone colourwork scarf. As that will be knitted, it'll fall outside the purview of this subreddit.

Is Loops & Threads "Impeccable" yarn feeling really, *really* skinny to anyone else?
