Let customers speak for us
Making for Halloween. The colors pop. The yarn feels so soft.
An oops. Plus usually when I buy EWE EWE bundles the pattern is included, not this time.
this Wooly Worsted MerinoYarn is beautiful and extremely soft to the touch. The color is rich and true and will make an amazing looking sweater. I can’t wait to start using this yarn then actually wearing it. I highly recommend this yarn from Ewe Ewe Yarns!

The yarn is wonderful and customer service is top notch.
There will be knots in some skeins which is normal. I don't know if this will pill or not until it's knit into something but it's the nature of Merino to do so but that doesn't bother me. I only needed 3 skeins but the price was so good that I bought 5. It's super soft like you would expect and the proper thickness for a fingering sock weight. I split the skeins into (6) 56 to 58 gram skeins and dyed up 5. They took the dye nicely and I am pleased with my results. My yarn was packaged well/nicely and shipped VERY quickly and arrived at my doorstep safe and sound. I would purchase this again.
I ordered the baa bag bulky for my hat pattern, that I also bought from Eye eye yarns. I love this yarn !! It is so nice to work with. It is also soo soft!
I really like the pattern. Beautiful!
I love these little scissors. They fit perfectly with all of my other knitting accessories in my tote and they even have their own case. They are sharp and easy to use!
I am blown away by the feel and quality of this yarn at such a Great price!!!
Love this yarn. Sooo soft and the color is beautiful

I’ve been waiting for the perfect yarn to start on my new wearable and the perfect pattern to do it with. Ewe Ewe has provided both. Not to mention the care and thoughtfulness of Heather, the owner , which makes it all the more fabulous!
I was open, when I ordered more yarn, to receive a different dye lot. I just figured for this children’s sweater I could make it work. Imagine my delight when I received the same dye lot! And quickly! I’m charged and almost finished!
I absolutely love this yarn. I had to buy more to make a hat and scarf!
