Perfect Cotton Blend Potholders

I’m using this product to make pot holders. The material is cotton/nylon. I try to only use cotton blend materials for crochet. Finding size 7 cotton or cotton blend proved challenging. These will machine wash on cold gentle. I used slip stitch and it worked up in about 45 minutes-1 hour, which is exactly what I wanted (a quick cotton yarn). I’m not sure if there is variegation with skein colors as I only ordered 1 of the pink, purple, chartreuse, and deep teal.

Pros
  • Beautiful colors and super soft. Bummed it’s been discontinued.
Cons
  • The price point is steep compared to other chunky yarns on the market

Tears in outer casing of yarn - project ruined

Very disappointed in this yarn. In the first skein I used, two areas had large tears in the outer casing (gray), revealing the white filling inside the yarn. Ridiculous to sell such a poorly constructed product, and there’s no way to realize the tears are in the skein until you’ve spent a lot of time creating your piece. Never buying Bernat again.

Pros
  • This woven tube yarn is perfect for mask strings. It is thick, soft, strong, and a bit stretchy.
Cons
  • Limited color options make it difficult to find the right shade for your project

Color inconsistent in my review

The product itself is great, but the dying of the yarn isn't consistent. I made a blanket and there were segments that were lighter than other skens of yarn

Pros
  • I love this yarn and the fast delivery. Sadly you can't get it because it's always sold out.
Cons
  • Polyester is difficult to useBest.for macrame

expensive but soooooo cool

I love this big product! I made a throw with it and I love the chunkiness of it. The weight is nice too.the drape is a little awkward but I still love it! They need more colors and it is really expensive.you need to order around double what you used with regular Bernat maker yarn.

Pros
  • Its like tube yarn but mini I was able to finger knit it instead of arm knitting
Cons
  • Not of good quality
