Review on Harrisville Designs Lotta Loops 7-inch Standard Pastel Cotton Loops - Creates ๐Ÿงถ 8 Potholders, Weaving, Crafts - Ideal for Kids and Adults in Assorted Colors by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mixing bag (pun intended)

So these bows are quite serviceable, but they have a few problems. Cons: (1) the colors aren't quite pastel - I would describe them as faded or dusty (2) many of the loops are wearing badly causing them to catch on the hook easily and lots of small loose threads in the last one Create stitch (3) big discrepancy in the amount of each color was 14 green loops and 59 orange loops, which was particularly unfortunate for me as orange and yellow are the only two colors I didn't want to use. (4) There were 284 loops in this bag, 4 fewer than the amount needed to make 8 pot holders as advertised. I'm assuming the bags are filled by weight and not counting the loops individually as I also had a brightly colored mixed bag that had 6 extra loops. Pros: You really feel like you are actually 100%. Cotton (unlike other buttonholes I've bought that were advertised as cotton but were either synthetic or cotton).

Pros
  • Handmade
Cons
