it is new yarn it has just been wound in balls, we are smoke and pet free home. it is vintage but has never been used. you can go to google.com and look up dazzleaire yarn, i don't know specifics just that it is dazzelaire. hope this helps!
w-o-w you are good! too bad you don't live in buffalo, you could be my helper!!!! thanks! what i hope they say is this type of yarn is soft, really soft.
if you notice,that is a customer of mine who looked it up, she was asking more questoins than i could answer, it is more of a worsted, very soft yarn - it used to be popular long ago - i remember in my hippie days i made a shawl out of it. hope this is helpful.
