the yarn is nice. It is soft and very bulky
I just received my yarn and am in the middle of a project when I found a knot in the middle of the skein (two lengths tied together)! Why isn't it all one continuous length of yarn?! I opened up another skein of the same yarn and it was a continuous length of yarn. I then measured the two skeins and discovered that the "knotted" skein is shorter than the continuous skein. I do understand there can be some variation in the amount of yarn you get in a skein. I realize you can work more than one skein together within a project. I found it frustrating when I expected to have sufficient product to complete my project with one skein only to find that I didn't have a continuous length with which to work.I am somewhat new to knitting so perhaps I'm missing something here. Is it normal to get a skein which is not one continuous length of yarn?Aside from this issue, with regard to other aspects of product quality, the yarn is nice. It is soft and very bulky. I used this yarn to arm knit scarves. it is durable, cozy, and warm.I am giving the product two stars because of the incomplete skein. Otherwise, I would have rated it four stars for overall product quality. The reason I wouldn't give five stars is due to the fact that it easily snags (see images attached). Since the product is an airy, open net-style yarn it seems to be more prone to snagging than other bulky yarns I've tried.

Nice yarn but NOT a 3-pack
The yarn itself is beautiful. Great color, wide, soft. The problem is that it is NOT a "3-pack" as the product name says. I even re-ordered from a different Amazon vendor, thinking it was the seller's mistake. Nope. Both sellers sent one single skein of yarn. And, due to the shorter yardage, I definitely needed more than one skein for my project (an arm-knitted infinity scarf). Again, beautiful yarn but the product name is misleading. Too much extra time on the buyer's end to get enough product.

Different yarn but works up great.
At first I did not like this yarn as I couldn't figure it out. But once I played around with it and found out how I could knit with it, I love it. This yarn makes very interesting and fluffy scarves. I made a couple of scarves out of this 3 pack and everyone loved them. I wound up buying a bunch more of this yarn in response to all the requests.

Not only is it fun to knit like that
This is a knitted tube that's been flattened into a ribbon shape. Not only is it fun to knit like that, I've also opened the tube (it's big enough to fit on my arm, would be a cute and fun cobweb armwarmer project just like that!) and made absolutely ridiculously puffy yarn that way. I think it's too delicate to use for a rug in that form, but it is incredibly warm.

Great Merino Roving Alternative
Great jumbo yarn for arm knitting throws and afghans. The price was comparable to the manufacturer if somewhat less expensive. To make a 3'x5' throw arm knitting you would need to buy 11-12 skeins-- more for a larger/longer throw. I find that using a tapestry needle to splice/connect new skeins with matching colored fine yarn or embroidery thread looks much cleaner and nicer than tying a knot. This makes a throw that looks close to the very expensive 100% merino wool roving but at much less the cost, plus you don't need to felt the wool.
