Good and inexpensive yarn for hand knitting.

In this review, we will focus on the yarn for hand knitting "Lotus" of the Moscow factory "Kamteks". I have been buying it for many years and I really like it. "Lotus" is 100% acrylic yarn. Density 100 g per 300 m. I mainly use knitting needles number 3 for knitting. ADVERTISING โ€ข BETWEEN EXCHANGE Production is located in Podolsk. The thread in the skein is all even, evenly spun, well twisted. It has a light, beautiful sheen characteristic of acrylic yarn. The work is very comfortable, soft, pleasant to the touch. Acrylic yarn Kamteks is slightly cheaper than Semenovskaya yarn "Souffle". They are the same in quality, only the Semenov one is a little thicker. Products knitted from acrylic yarn "Lotus" Kamteks. Ready booties after washing and steaming. It can be seen that the thread is even, the loops lie one to one, the yarn is of high quality, there are no knots, thickenings, etc. The yarn is evenly dyed, there were no breaks or foreign inclusions in the skein. Yarn of different colors is the same in thickness, so it can be safely combined in knitting. These booties are still without buttons. Can't decide on a color :) White booties are knitted from acrylic yarn "Lotus" Kamteks in two strands on knitting needles number 3.5. Acrylic thread "Lotus" looks good in garter stitch and regular 1x1 ribbing. Blue yarn "Lotus" - a very changeable color. In the store in a skein, it looked completely different than in the finished product. The photo shows the same yarn in different lighting and a product knitted from this skein. This is how the booties knitted from the Lotus yarn Kamteks look after six months. We wore them all summer and of course washed them often. After many washes, the acrylic thread noticeably fluffs up, but this is a minor drawback. This is how any synthetic thread behaves, and not just Kamtex. After washing, it dries almost instantly. In general, the product, knitted from the "Lotus", keeps its shape well after washing, does not stretch, does not deform. Colored yarn does not shed, does not lose its original brightness. Based on my many years of experience with Camtex acrylic yarn, I can say that this is a good, inexpensive yarn made in Russia. Price per skein (100 g) - 89 rubles.
