4.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly soft and very beautiful cotton yarn, but difficult to work with.
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2024
I chose this yarn in Linen White but what received is much more like the Frosted Lemon option. The lemony cream color has flecks of blue, pink, and orange and a generally light-yellow feel to it instead of the grayish cream with umber and brown flecks that I had hoped for to use for an accessory for a burnt orange dress. I strongly suspect that the yarn was mislabeled, but I liked the look of enough to use it with my intended project.

This yarn is very soft on the hands and feels quite nice to work with. I'm not used to cotton blends feeling this soft, and it is a nice change. The yarn also has very clear stitch definition and helps details pop. However this yarn tends to catch on itself often when frogging, and this makes for some gnarly and difficult snags to undo. This yarn is also quite prone to splitting, and I had to be very aware of where and how I placed my needles when working with it.

I used this yarn for a shawl and the finished work is absolutely gorgeous! The fabric has wonderful drape and is quite flowy, which well suits the pattern that I chose. The knitted fabric has nice stretch, and grew by almost half after wet blocking. This shawl is 62" wide, 30" long after blocking and I still have yarn left over. My phone's camera didn't pick up the overall color and speckles as well as I had hoped, but it's close enough to get an idea of what it's like in person.

Only one skein of this yarn had a break in the strand, and I used four and a half skeins on the shawl. I'm quite happy with the finished results of this yarn, but it was certainly not the easiest yarn to work with.

Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2024
I love this yarn. I’m knitting a light, summer/fall sweater. This yarn is perfect! It’s so soft and very easy to work with. The color mint is beautiful with shades of white, blue and yellow. I will definitely use this yarn again, in other colors. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

3.0 out of 5 stars Colors need updating
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2024
I’ve ordered a few time from this company. I do like their yarns and have made several blankets, but the colors verses the website description are tricky. I ordered “Butterscotch” and the color I received was more goldish…luckily, my husband liked that color so I stuck with it. Fast forward a few months and I ordered “Cotton Candy” which is a beige looking color on the website. I received the color pink, which had the label Cotton Candy. Twice now…annoying.

1.0 out of 5 stars So disappointed!
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2024
The color seems more gray-ish online.135 yd X 6 does not equal 852, and there is barely any stretch in the yarn.
I ordered the green moss as well so I'll be returning that too!
If I saw this in the store I would NOT have purchased it.
Obviously the reviews I read do not match the product I received!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very soft; pretty colors
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2024
This is a good value for a multipack of cotton yarn. It's very soft for cotton (note that it's not 100% cotton) and the colors are pretty.

I love the color! It doesn’t fray easily. So nice to work with. A little bit smaller than I thought it would be though.

This was not the color I expected. It’s more a baby blue and I was looking for the darker more gray blue.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2024
This yarn has a great color, which is even prettier in color, plus the cotton polyester blend is very soft. I also very much appreciated that the packaging didn't have a 'shipment' smell. My only complaint would be that it took forever to come in, I didn't need it immedietly so it wasn't a big deal to me.
