🧶 Lion Brand Hazelnut Cotton-Ease Yarn, 1 Skein, 830-125H Review

I have tried different yarns and this is by far the best. Red is dead on red. A blend of cotton and acrylic works great. I made a scarf for my husband and he loves it. He said it was really warm and soft. The blend gives it good stretch and texture. I will probably only buy this yarn from now on. I think it's real! I have girls who want me to teach them how to crochet. I advised them to buy Cotton-Ease, they will love working with it.

I tend towards Lion Brand Cotton-Ease Yarn. It is a blend of 50% cotton and 50% acrylic, which makes the project very comfortable to work with.

So far I have knitted 3 blouses for girls aged 7 and 8. They put this yarn through serious testing every day and this yarn is holding up very well. I haven't washed these sweaters yet. I…

I really liked this yarn, it's very soft for a cotton yarn perfect for a baby blanket I knitted!

Essentially, this means trimming out the small…

Of the six skeins I used, one gray skein had multiple knots connecting the yarn. Maybe I was lucky that I only had one skein that wasn't a perfect skein. Yarn is expensive when buying enough for multiple projects. If I have to cut enough yarn to make knots at the end of the row, I may have to buy another skein to make up for the loss. My…

I usually crochet in 100% acrylic or blends but my husband LOVES cotton so I bought a few skeins around to make him a blanket. I prefer acrylic crochet because I love how acrylic rebounds after being pulled for crochet stitches. Other cotton yarns I've used for larger projects (Handicrafter, Sugar, and Cream) stretched a little while crocheting and then stretched like crazy during use - a throw I made for my husband a few years ago was made into a giant napkin and is now unusable. So I thought…
