Dream in Color is very very nice to work with. Tightly plied, so I had no problems with split stitches. It is dyed in a way that doesn't pool. Also, any joins I found in the skein were not knotted, but very nicely spliced. I also ended up with about 37g surplus after finishing the pair (size 11, which required another pattern repeat in the foot).
