Can Berroco Vintage DK claim the crown as the ultimate workhorse wool-blend yarn for crocheters, or will it send your hook on an unexpected roller coaster ride?

From its massive palette of over 60 shades to how it actually handles on a hook, here is everything you need to know before casting on your next project!
