Review on Bulk Buy Caron Simply Soft Collection Yarn 3-Pack in Pistachio Color (Model: H97COL-3) by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good quality yarn but not a very happy color.

I bought this yarn because I needed some more yarn to complete the project and I liked the pistachio color enough to get more for another project. Very disappointed with the color of this yarn. It's much more of a blue hue that makes it look very bland, while another pistachio I bought from the store had a golden hue that made the project pop. The project is striped, so there shouldn't be an exact match, but it just looked awful. Usually Caron yarn is a fairly consistent color if you buy the same color name, but I have noticed that there is a noticeable color change with the "Ocean" color. I think I will only buy yarn in store as you don't know what color you can get online. You really should change the name of the color if there is a big difference in the color of the yarn after it has been dyed.

Pros
  • Price for 3 skeins of Caron Simply Soft Collection Pistachio H97COL-3 (UPC 035613120036), total 945 yards/18 oz (864 meters/510 g) or 624 yards/12 oz (570 meters/342 g) of yarn for ombre knitting
