Review on Bernat POP! Snow Queen 5Oz Medium Gauge 100% Acrylic Yarn For Optimal Search Engine Results by Kenneth Martin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Scratchy not a good acrylic yarn

I bought 11 cakes of this yarn in foggy notion. The good, all the cakes came with the same dyelot and my blanket and shawl came out beautiful. The bad, the yarn was knotted and tied together with almost every color change, the weight of the yarn would change from a heavy worsted weight yarn to a lace or light fingering weight yarn to a bulky weight yarn back to a worsted weight yarn I had a lot of cutting and weaving in ends. I probably cut about 3 yards out of yarn in every cake. The cakes also had splotches of color that didn't belong sometimes it would be a dark blue grey color in the white or the splotches of purple and there's no purple in any of the cakes. The finished products I can't use because of how scratchy it is and I can use red heart super saver yarn without any issues. I will not be buying anymore of the bernat pop yarn.

Pros
  • nothing bad to say
Cons
  • Not ideal for delicate garments
