This is such a pretty color. It has a nice texture. It works up nicely. However it does come untwined a bit occasionally as you work, and any cut end will begin to fray. Not sure yet about how it washes. Still working up my squares for kiddos blankets. But love this colorway, and loving this line of yarn. I was able to find a few more color variations in some local stores that work with my kiddos color requests. Each one so far is super soft, a lovely bulky yarn that is still pretty light. Hopefully not too hot once it's all together for their blankets. ðŸ˜

This yarn is soft, easy to knit with, comes in beautiful colors, nice bulky yarn. Made a hat for a child with it, and it's very durable!

Good quality yarn, and lovely neutral color! We used it to hang up our Christmas stockings. It's soft and was strong enough to hold them without difficulty. We have plenty left over, and I imagine it will be put to good use!

I really like using this yarn to make afghans. The yarn is heavy and warm and makes a great blanket. because it is acrylic it is easy to just throw in the washer and dryer. The only down side is because the fibers are so short they are prone to a lot of pilling and fraying. This means they will have a pretty used looked fairly quickly. On the other hand, I use one of the afghans made with this yarn daily so it gets a lot of abuse and has held up well and has maintained a level of softness. The down side is you burn through a skein very fast and it can become expensive quickly. I also used this to make an afghan as a wedding present for friends and they love theirs.

Soft, easy to use, and very consistent. I just started crocheting recently and used this for my very first completed Item for my daughter.

I got this yarn to finger knit a hat for my husband. The yarn color is very pretty and the yarn itself is very soft to the touch. I am very new to finger knitting, this was my second project, my first being a scarf. I found it a bit difficult to use this yarn because it was very fuzzy and it was hard sometimes to keep track of the loops that I was supposed to put the working yarn into because the yarn was too fuzzy for me to clearly see the loop. I'm sure there is a technical term for that but as a beginner, I don't know the term. My hat turned out okay, I wasn't that pleased with it and the video that I watched to show me how to finger knit it didn't use yarn that was this fuzzy, although the video said to use bulky yarn so that was another reason I chose this one. I will say the hat was very warm due to the yarn but if I had to do it over again, I would of chosen a different yarn that wasn't so fuzzy.

I love this yarn. It's my first time knitting and I was apprehensive about buying a product without having physically inspected it first, but my fears were unfounded.I'm currently working on an afghan blanket project, and it feels so soft on the fingers. The flecking throughout the yarn is understated in low light, but visible in mid to bright lighting, giving my blanket an almost starry sky effect.If you get the ACTUAL Lion Brand packaging (not the knock-off replacement I got the first time), it comes with really helpful information on both sides of the cardstock tube. The integrated rulers (in both inches and centimeters) are a beautiful addition that I love.Thank you Lion Brand!

This is my favourite brand of yarn for making kids hats.It crochets up beautifully. It’s super soft and feels good on your fingers while you work - not scratchy or rough.Heartland is the only brand I use. Lots of fantastic colours too.

Its fine to use in repairing a carpet, but I have sweaters made from similar yarn from Malta that are a bit too silky and piled over the years. I don't know how to knit but if I did? I would not use this yarn for a sweater, at least not for an adult.
