Review on Lion Brand Yarn 675-146 New Basic 175 Yarn in Plum: A Colorful Essential for Your Craft Projects! by Amy Mcleod

Revainrating 2 out of 5

False and hairy.

This yarn is nice and very light for #4 BUT the gauge is very uneven and hairy. So if, like me, you're willing to cut off rows if necessary to get it right, this yarn isn't right for the job. It often catches, so pulling stitches requires a seam ripper to cut it every 5 stitches. It's just badly packaged. I would never pay that much money for this yarn again.

Pros
  • Hard wearing finish
Cons
  • A newer model could have been chosen

I thought this was the wool easy, I’m so sorry.
