I think sirdar have described it perfectly, it is simply sublime, beautifully soft, and amazing to crochet with, it’s just a real treat and an absolute pleasure to use.
My only negative thing is that there are zero crochet patterns available for sublime, none.
Each skein is 50g and 116m, which surprisingly goes a long way, I’ve so far managed to get 80% of a baby cardigan completed in sublime ‘piglet’ I’m currently just finishing the last little arm, then it’s the collar and edging, each skein is £5.29 I bought mine from Black sheep wools so for less than £11.00 I have a beautiful cashmere and merino silk cardigan to give as a gift, I’m so pleased with it.
I’m not much of a rule breaker, I like to use a suggested pattern for the yarn I use or the other way around, I wanted to make a modern baby cardigan to suit the sublime but with zero crochet patterns I’ve used a Debbie bliss pattern
I’ve struggled with how the pattern is worded, I’ve had to read and reread some elements, put it down and come back again, but I’ve figured it and it’s stunning! I’ll have the last sleeve and collar finished by tomorrow so I’ll post a picture.
Anyway, sirdar sublime, is sublime and a real treat to use!!
Happy hooking xx

I know! I only used 100g for the cardigan, hat and booties!! Anyway you won’t believe this, started steaming the cardigan last night, and all was going well, until, the iron started spewing dirty water all over the cardigan!!! Cashmere and silk!!!! Fuming!! I’ve given it a hand wash and now waiting for it to dry to see how damaged it is 😩
