Review on Bernat Crushed Velvet Yarn: Discover Potent Purple Luxury! by Michelle Chopra

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Knitting with crumpled velvet creates slip stitches and loops

The beautiful colors caught my attention when I was knitting plaids. The yarn is very soft BUT don't use it for bulky projects as it slips and creates impossible loops in my rows. I tried 1 thread on a #8 circular needle, 2 threads on a #9 circular needle, tried 3 threads on a #15 circular needle, then mine ripped apart for the 5th time! and returned any unused new skeins for any credit Yarnspirations would offer. With over $130 spent on yarn and shipping, and hours wasted, this Bernat Crushed Velvet is NOT for knitting projects.

Pros
  • Impressive
