Lion Brand Suitable for DIY - all pros and cons about this

I bought this yarn somehow on occasion - a friend asked me to knit one souvenir, and it was gray-silver color so that it was. The saleswoman in the store advised me to take YarnArt Bright for this purpose. In general, it was on point! The color is very beautiful, the thread with overflows from almost white through blue to dark gray, and the shine is wonderful! It was a long time ago and I periodically use this yarn, but the wrapper has not been preserved. And the skein itself now looks like this: The thread is very tight and strong, the composition is polyamide and metallic. It is definitely not suitable for knitting clothes, it will be very hard and prickly. But for finishing things or making various kinds of crafts, for weaving and other things like that, a good and unusual option! For example, just yesterday or the day before yesterday I knitted curtain holders from this yarn: I used my favorite hook 1.5 and the knitting turned out to be quite dense, the product keeps its shape. Here is this flower-star close up: This yarn has one drawback: it is difficult to work with it. This is not like iris, Alize or Ersur, knitting with which is a pleasure! The fact is that YarnArt Bright does not slip at all, it twists in the process (however, it unwinds easily!), Nevertheless, I recommend it to lovers of original things!
