For socks I've found that the bamboo has not kept it's shape as well as wool, but so far, other than that, they are wearing well. They are warm on my feet though and comfortable. They also feel softer on my feet than the wool socks I've knit so far. The yarn I used was manufactured over 10 years ago, so I'm sure manufacturers have improved their blends and processes since mine was made. I'm finally working on getting my stash down:$ so my experience might not match up with a newer yarn.

Well, it's very soft and a nice type of yarn if you're looking for natural fiber !
