5.0 out of 5 stars Soft, easy to work with
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2024
I like this yarn. I tried different colors and completed two jumpers with it. It's soft, looks good after machine wash, light purple a little bit more difficult to knit with because a white part separates time to time. I didn't have this problem with a dark purple. I will buy it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Color
Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2024
I was first drawn to this yarn by the beautiful colors. I don’t see this shade of red often and I thought it would make a lovely cardigan. The yarn is soft and nice to work with, but I do caution that it is very thin. I purchased it when it was on a flash sale and some at regular price, so I would consider it to be a good value in terms of quantity and price. The yarn also arrived in good condition and on time. I would recommend buying the amount of yarn you need for your project to avoid color issues down the road.

4.0 out of 5 stars Soft and works up easily but color inconsistent
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2024
Overall I do like this yarn and some batches seem to have better consistency than others but as you can see in my photos, the second skein I joined in from the same bag was super patchy - like it was plied together poorly. There were some areas that had no heathering and some where the thread for heathering had piled up.

Pros:
1. Cost effective
2. Soft
3. Machine washable
4. Works up to have a lovely drape both knitting and crocheting

Cons:
1. Color inconsistencies in the same batch
2. Some batches have knots while others don’t and it seems to be a bit of a shot in the dark

I think for summer tops and stuff, this is a great option in terms of cost, color range, and final fabric, I just wish the color consistency in a single pack was more even.

Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2024
You get a star for color! Super cute .. you get a star for softness. And, you get a star for a surprising amount of yarn in one small skein. But, you lost a star for the odd, thin sections you run into while crocheting. I had to stop what I'm doing and cut the yarn then knot it together again. Just very inconvenient. (That was the fifth star.) I just hope its durable enough for a baby blanket.

This yarn is 100% quality cotton. It was consistent color throughout and was easy and comfortable to knit up into a medley of baby hats, sweaters and booties.

I wanted some good DK yarn that wouldn’t break the bank and this was perfect. Someone mentioned in the comments it was thinner than DK and more like thread but not what I received. Thread yarn is much thinner than this yarn. This is soft pretty DK and it works up great. No issues.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very pretty color
Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2024
The six skeins of yarn are not very big. I was using it for placemats that I crocheted and had to supplement with a different yarn in a different color to finish 4. It is very soft but also a little difficult to work with. The watermelon color was the closest color I could find to "Nantucket Red" so that was great! A little bit more than I would normally spend for this amount of yarn but comprable to my local knitting shops prices.
