Knitting with GLORY

GLORY (a review)

You know that thrill when you find a yarn that’s both soft and speedy? That’s GLORY. 100% extrafine merino for comfort, chunky weight for quick progress, and a subtle sheen that makes even the simplest scarf look like it belongs in a boutique window.

My First Impressions

GLORY from WOOLADDICTS by LANGYARNS instantly feels like the beginning of a successful knitting story. The 100% virgin extrafine merino has a warm, soft touch that promises comfort, while the chunky weight hints at quick, satisfying progress. Its subtle sheen gives an elegant finish without overpowering the natural beauty of the fibre, making it a yarn that blends sophistication with modern practicality.
