I've wanted to try this brand for a long time.

I'm new to crocheting. I worked with different yarns, it turned out beautifully. I'm so looking forward to winter so I can make my own accessories. This yarn is soft and slightly fluffy. So easy to work with and elegant!

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Soft, pleasant color. Ideal for tight tissues.

Very nice yarn dyeing. The yarn is soft, ideal for children's and toddlers' sweaters, hats. Yarn is difficult to work with, the fibers unwind as they are processed. It is easy to separate the thread when knitting. The yarn is thin and delicate, it is better to use smaller knitting needles.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • For old people

Not #4, gets fluffy as you work.

Nice colors and I like the cake yarn because it's easier to dig down the middle to find the end (why is it so hard to find the end of a ball of yarn these days?) My biggest complaints: It says here it's #4, but it's actually #3. Also, the yarn started fluffing up as I worked with it, so the tiny strands ended up wrapping around another part of the yarn. My project is a success and I love the colors but I won't buy it again.

Pros
  • Fiber composition: 100% acrylic.
Cons
  • writes later

Not impressed. Lots of problems

I usually buy the Lion brand directly from their website. I learned how to spool yarn to see what kind of problems knitting can cause. It's garbage everywhere. I don't know if Revane bought seconds or if I just had a bad ball. I bought two, but from the looks of it I'm not wasting time rewinding another one. i will return it I have 2 other colors that I bought to test further. I hope this is just a bad batch as I really like the colors. Might try later. I do not know. Totally confused now.

Pros
  • Care instructions: Machine wash and dry.
Cons
  • old

I love to crochet with this beautiful yarn!

Soft and pleasant to work with. I love the blankets I've made from cotton candy (because of the yarn, not because I crocheted). It's like the colors in a Monet painting. I think I used eight skeins to make the medium sized blanket pictured. The length of the skein seems short compared to mandala or cupcake yarn. However, I think it is softer than these two yarns. I would order more in a heartbeat if I didn't have so many other yarns to use first. Next time I will combine two different colors…

Pros
  • This plain colored yarn has everything a knitter could wish for: it is light, has beautiful ombré colors and is super soft.
Cons
  • unreliable
