I've not yet knit with any of the Urth yarns. The many choices of the self-striping uneek are amazing. It would be so hard to choose, but I wouldn't mind a try with #4008.
The solid colors of Uneek Harvest have so much depth. Cinnamon or Mint are nice colors. The Uneek 16 colors are all a knitter needs to find the just right shades. Unusual but I am drawn to the BR60 in the browns. I really like that the yarn weight is worsted in all 3 of these. Should make for quick knitting.

I'm partial to cotton. So, Uneek Cotton. Honestly, I would knit with any of Urth's yarns. Thanks for this post. I never knew the Urth line was so vast.

I would love to have these kits for a very special reason. My sister-in-law will be starting chemo the week after Christmas and I want to make her a scarf or cowl to wear while getting treatment. Medical facilities are so cold. There are so many beautiful colors in this yarn and the Slipicious Stripes cowl would be perfect for this project.

Urth is among one of my favorite yarns. The colors really draw you in. I have had my eye on Spiral Grain for some now, but haven't tried it yet. As for the designer, his patterns are intriguing and there are several in my ravelry favorites. This cowl is one of them!

I enjoy the Urth yarns and have made some Sophie scarves with the worsted. Also started the flannel scarf with the fingering and got distracted by another project. Need to finish that one. It’s pretty.
