Beautiful, soft and WASHABLE.

This is one of the best crochet yarns I have ever seen. It has a slight sheen that really shows off the intricate beauty of the stitches. I used it to make an afghan for a friend's wedding and it was a huge hit! (If you look at the photo, the other color is Bone of the same brand.)

Pros
  • Pleasing
Cons
  • Quality

Very soft on the needles

I have many beautiful colors in this really soft yarn. However, the working yarn has a strong tendency to separate into individual threads, which can make the stitch difficult to finish and spoil its appearance. In addition, the yarn is wound at the factory in such a way that a tangle can occur from skein to skein. Otherwise it is a pleasure to work with him.

Pros
  • Beautiful item
Cons
  • Infinitely limp

NOT soft *at all*! the best in knitting and crocheting

The name of this yarn is Just Soft. There is nothing soft in this yarn. The yarn unravels and breaks easily, making it difficult for you to move forward with your project. This is a very fine yarn so I need way more yarn than I planned to complete my project. The only advantage of this yarn is its beautiful bright color ("Sunshine"). I wish I had kept looking and not bought it. Bad value!

Pros
  • brings joy
Cons
  • fades

I received 3 ounces not the 12 ounces I ordered. Nobody pays $18 for 6 ounces of yarn

Like: My granddaughter loves this color. I wanted to make her Afghan. I like Caron Simply Soft because it is SOFT and makes a nice blanket. I can't find this color in stores in a large skein. I searched and found the 12 ounce and although I thought the price was a bit steep I ordered it because (and let's be honest) "my kid loved the color". This yarn typically sells for $3.49 to $4.99 per 3 ounce skein. Love the product like the seller. You simply sent the wrong item.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Slightly darker or medium peach - but still beautiful

I bought this to use on a couple of dolls I am making from a real person. I tried to match her skin tone and it was very difficult. I bought this because another reviewer posted a photo of a doll head they processed and it seemed to work. I wish the color was a little lighter than peach. It's a very deep light peach shade and I've been looking for something softer but this is the closest I can get. Even if I end up finding the best option for my project, I still really like the color of this…

Pros
  • A few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
