Bland and Scratchy Yarn

This yarn was a disappointment. Though affordable, the texture was scratchy and not enjoyable to work with. It lacks vibrancy and feels cheap, not sturdy like most high-quality yarns should. In terms of quantity, it could be deemed useful for arts and crafts in a pinch, but I would definitely not bulk buy again.

Pros
  • Affordable
Cons
  • Scratchy texture and lack of vibrancy

Too much money!

I reordered it and it's almost $10 more expensive. This is ridiculous in less than 6 months. Now I will buy yarn elsewhere.

Pros
  • Made from 100% Acrylic
Cons
  • Damaged

Beautiful shade of lavender

I am knitting a shawl for our "Scarf Ministry" and it is beautiful in this shade of lavender. The only thing is that each strand had at least 2 knots. I only mention this because it doesn't bother me as I just knot and weave in the ends and no one ever realizes they're there. Sometimes not, sometimes more. It just depends on what kind of yarn you can handle and/or praise or allow yourself to be bothered with. I will continue to buy this yarn as I really like what I can do with it.

Pros
  • Medium Weight #4; also known as Aran, Worsted or Afghan Heavy Knitting Yarn
Cons
  • slightly crumpled
