Review on Lily Sugar'n Cream Cotton Cone Yarn - Soft Ecru, 14 oz - Shop Now! by Nicole Mcleod

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for washcloths

I mainly use this for knitting washcloths and it works really well. The yarn can be a little stiff to get used to as it doesn't stretch at all but doesn't break either which is great. The colors are beautiful and I like the variety of options. The cone holds about four or five 9-inch washcloths, which is a great value, and it's nice not to have waste or having to splice yarn in the middle of a project. It's not particularly soft, so I use it for washcloths and mesh bags instead of wearables, but it's great for projects where durability is more important than softness. I also use it in the garden to tie tomatoes and it works great there and lasts all season. The yarn is durable, wears well, washes well and dries in the washing machine. Overall this is a great easy to work with and durable yarn and I would definitely recommend it.

Pros
  • Stitch size: 13 sc and 14 rows in 5mm (US H/8)
Cons
  • Ugly wrapper
