Nice yarn but not the color in the photo

The yarn is very soft, I will keep it. But it is not pink like in the picture. These are strawberry fields, the picture looks very pink. It's white with pink dots. Very nice but not like the pictures.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • No shape required

The color path isn't even close.

Ordered Lady Marmalade - received these 3 balls in pink. The yarn is soft but the colors are EXCELLENT. I understand that due to the fact that they are hand painted they will not be exactly like the picture but what I received is nowhere near what was in the photo. They are white and pink with a few spots.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Nervous

Not what was in the photo.

I'm so disappointed I'm angry. I think light green Kermit the Frog, maybe at best I was hoping to even get a nice light green. I was given white cotton thread that the kindergarten class brushed some paint on. I'll add another yarn to make something out of it. Lion Brand, famous yarn company, I expect more from a reputable place like this. It looks like someone's kitchen twine.

Pros
  • Solid surface
Cons
  • Damaged

Yarn does not match color

I understand that hand painting means no two are alike and colors will vary throughout the process. That is the appeal of this yarn BUT with that the colors I received do not match the pictures in the listing (not only on Revain but also on the manufacturer's website). Wanting to risk this yarn, bought 5 skeins for the project and Welp, not what I expected. At least the colors are consistent on the 5 I bought. Delivery was fast.

Pros
  • Each ball weighs 70g and is 160m long; Made in Turkey.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Even in the same color scheme as in the photo

While I understand hand dyed yarns are different, I ordered Lady Marmalade and it looks more like a VERY watered down showstopper. There is not a drop of green and nowhere are there such shades of purple as in the photo. I'm ordering a few more to see if I can get better options, but this won't meet my needs as it is. UPDATE: No, two replacements are just as bad. It's not even as purple as in the photo. The yarn is so soft but terrible work with the colors.

Pros
  • Fiber composition: 100% nylon.
Cons
  • Doubtful

Colors not as shown

If you want a surprise, grab it! Pros: It's very soft. It is hand painted at a lower price point than most. It's like a surprise what colors you actually get (I'm weird and I love it) Cons: Choosing this based on specific colors for a specific project. RUN NOW! These are a far cry from the colors they show in the photos! Luckily I had read other reviews and knew I wasn't expecting what I was seeing. But I was very curious about using hand dyed yarn at an affordable price and without having a…

Pros
  • Lion Brand has finally opened the code for hand dyed yarns to the mass market.
Cons
  • So far so good
