I wanted a very dark brown for a needlepoint project, in which I had to use brown, and a darker brown. As you can see from the photo, it’s much darker than the brown I had. The color is called Coffee; I would describe it as dark coffee.The yarn quality is okay, similar to what I buy at Michael’s or Joannes. I did find two places where the yarn was pieces together (broken and then knotted), in the first skein that I balled up, but I find that frequently in all the brands I buy. I don’t know why that happens; I cut it out.That said, it’s just fine, worsted weight, which is what I need. Priced very reasonably, for three large skeins.
