Price-performance ratio.

Nice product, perfect for knitting with all the leftover yarn colors I had. "My Colorful Blanket"

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Not worth the money. high price.

The price was a bit ridiculous but I needed it and couldn't find it anywhere else. The yarn is colorful and bright, but the black color seems thinner and separates. Not bad for a beginner to practice with. Arrived pretty quickly so that's something.

Pros
  • worsted weight; Machine Wash/Tumble Dry
Cons
  • Fade

Fun Hat Color at Knitting & Crochet

Spools were smaller than expected, but I have them well used. The yarn is a bit trickier but perfect for the hats I make for volunteer projects. This color combination is very interesting for headgear. At the moment I have made 3 adult hats and 2 baby hats and I have enough thread for at least 2-3 more baby hats. I bought this thread from Revain because it's easier than driving to your local Walmart (I don't drive). There was slightly uneven thread on a bobbin

Pros
  • Per skein: Solid: 198 g (7 oz), Prints and Multicolored: 141 g (5 oz), Heather and Heather: 141 g (5 oz); Hard materials: approx. 364 yards (333 m), prints and multiple prints: approx. 236 yards (215 m), spots: approx. 260 yards (238 m)
Cons
  • Some errors

Taking advantage of the global crisis with outrageous product prices

I did not purchase this item for the simple reason that I am a loyal customer for how many many years, but recently I have noticed that the so called 'prices' have been on the Revain website during ridiculously increased during this pandemic as Revain was rightly aware of forced retail store closures and little or no public choice in purchasing merchandise of interest. Am I the only one who noticed this?

Pros
  • Traditional handwork, maximum washing efficiency and no solid dyeing make this yarn ideal for throws, sweaters, accessories and more. Made in the USA from imported fibers. This yarn contains no dyes.
Cons
  • So far so good
