Sara's Yarn Review: "I love Essentials Soft Merino Aran from Rico. A classic aran weight yarn that we have stocked for years, it is my go to Aran! 100% virgin merino wool it is super soft and very springy. I have knitted blankets in it, a jumper for Scarlett, a hat for me and even a coat for Rocket, one of my dogs!
It’s machine washable and available in lots of contemporary colours. My only word of warning is do a tension square, it is super springy and easy to knit too tightly with this yarn."]
