Ideal for beginners

I like to use this yarn regularly because it is great for making carpets or throws. It's also really lumpy soft. Buy 10-20 for large projects!

Pros
  • Only positive
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Big project? Do not worry.

The yarn itself is good. My claim applies to the purchase limit. This means I can only buy 4 balls of 81 yards. I need at least 720 yards, that's 9 strands. I tried to place multiple orders but I can't buy more than 4. I will not be purchasing this yarn for my project and will be returning the order number already placed. I find the restriction to bulky yarn like this to be in bad shape as it is impossible to use for projects larger than a scarf.

Pros
  • Strong construction
Cons
  • Can't remember

Nice and neat, clean skeins of yarn!

This was the first time I've ordered yarn from Revain and not my closest Joanne or Michael. I make winter hats for my daughter's high school water polo team and since I can only buy 1.5 hats in this super small US hometown and there are over 20 girls on the team, I need more than my local stores. wear. This is by far the best yarn quality I've ever bought! It is common to see in a shop that the strand has been tampered with several times and both ends have become unraveled in a mess, and mostโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Available in stores

Ideal for coloring doll hair

I use this yarn for doll hair and I really like it. It's so soft, makes hair strands faster and thicker. Doesn't get tangled easily. I have many shades of this brand. I love her! The color was quite close to the sample and the product. Given the difference in screen color.

Pros
  • Machine washable; The initial water temperature should not exceed 40ยฐC or 105ยฐF; Do not use bleach
Cons
  • small items

Beautiful but disappointing

I am new to crocheting and had no idea how thick this yarn was going to be. I've only had one hook up to 8mm and I recommended 9mm so this could be user error as there is no proper tool available. However, the yarn broke at the ends, kept snagging on the needle and made me scream in frustration as I had to repeat countless stitches because it kept snagging or snapping. Let me tell you the color is amazing! This is a heavy and soft knit and knits up quickly despite my issues due to the size ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • 6-Super Bulky: bulky flat yarn; Solids: 140 g (5 oz), 74 m (81 yd); Multi Colored and Tweed: 4 oz (113 g), 64 yd (59 m)
Cons
  • Price up
