This yarn is good value. It is easy yo work with although it splits easily. The end result is a comfortable garment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice smooth acrylic yarn in a lighter worsted weight
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2016
I purchased a number of colors of this yarn but did my test scarf in Cuyahoga Valley. It is a lovely deep teal color with touches of lighter teal running throughout. The overall effect is one of a very subtle tweed.

The skein is 251 yards for five ounces of acrylic yarn. It states that it is a worsted weight 4. I've seen a lot of variance in worsted weight yarns and I would certainly call this one a lighter worsted weight. The skein suggest a J 10 (6mm) hook but I found that an H (5mm) worked best for me.

I always test a new yarn by crocheting a standard scarf. That gives me the opportunity to experience the feel of the yarn and to compare it against other yarns that I have likewise tested. I use a half-double crochet as it gives a good body to the material and still leaves it soft enough for comfort.

For this scarf, as I had a lot of yardage, I choose to do a chain 14 (two for a turning chain), turn, half double crochet in 12, chain two turn, and repeat until the scarf was 72 inches long. In most worsted weight scarves, my scarf is around 4 inches wide. With this yarn, it ended up 3 inches wide by 72 inches long with a considerable amount of yarn left over (which I could and may use to make a fringe for the scarf.)

I liked the way the yarn felt in my hand. It was smooth and silky and the yarn pulled easily from the center. I didn't have any knots but I did have three spots where the yarn appeared slightly frayed. Those spots end well within my crochet but would have been apparent if I had knit with the skein. Because of the fraying, I would give this yarn a 4.5 stars if it were possible. As it is not, I round up (as always) to a 5.

I like the yarn a lot and will be making a number of projects using it. I had hoped for a full worsted weight yarn for some Celtic-inspired projects but I don't think it is quite thick enough.

Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2024
I'm making a 2024 temperature blanket using only Heartland colors and I love the way they look together. It makes a nice thick weave without being too stiff. The washability factor of acrylic is a huge bonus.

The only drawback is that it splits pretty easily. I am making tight stitches so it feels even more challenging because i frequently miss strands. But i like the colors and the end result too much to stop using it,

I design and make dolls and I always use Lion Brand Yarn Heartland. I use it for my dolls because it looks realistic and is so nice to work with. This color of the Heartland yarn was a color I had never used until now and I just love it! Would buy again.

I have not used this brand before but they had the color I was looking for.
I am making an afghan for a new sofa, and this yarn is perfect for that. It is not too heavy and it is very soft. I would love to have a sweater made with this. Something to consider?
