I am an absolute beginner crocheter. (I took Knitwit's Learn to Crochet Workshop this past February). I chose this yarn with the able assistance of staff at the shop for my first real crochet project, which was an Aspen Infinity Scarf pattern I downloaded online from The Loophole Fox. I found the yarn very easy to handle and wonderful to hold and look at as my project began to take shape. It is a high quality yarn--which made my scarf something that I actually will wear.
