I love the feel and the color and quality. The skeins were smaller than I expected, but the quality makes up for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, silky yarn
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2024
I ordered this to complete a baby blanket, which I had previously started a year ago. I was worried that due to different dye lots, the colors would not match. I was so relieved to see that it was a perfect match! The yarn is so strong and silky (ideal for a baby blanket) and I'm so excited to be able to finish it the way I was hoping! For how light the yarn is, it is going to be the perfect level of warmth while still staying a little cool. It is probably a weight 4 yarn, but feels more like a 3-4 weight. With how silky it is, it is incredible easy to use and doesn't get hung up on the hook at all. I believe this will be the only cotton brand I buy from here on out!

Decided to make crocheted poinsettias pins as Christmas gifts for girls at work. Ordered this nice red and green yarn. It’s a very good quality and smooth texture. Not bad for the price. Would purchase again and probably will.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice unique color but tiny skein
Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2024
I was hoping that it was bigger but didn’t realize that it’s less than 159 yards so it’s pretty tiny. Guess I’m gonna have to get more. The color is very nice and unique in color, has a subtle nice sheen to it and the thread seems durable. However, this should not be called yarn cus it isn’t a yarn,?it’s a thread.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't recommend enough!
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024
I don't understand why Amazon lists this yarn as a frequently returned item. I love it! I used it to make a few dish towels for Christmas presents, and they turned out beautiful (and they hold up perfect in the wash). I've seen other reviewers mention that there's less than expected in each skein, and this makes them overpriced, but I completely disagree. Yes, there isn't a crazy amount in each skein (it took me 2 whole skeins to make a very small gauge 17"x8" dish towel, reasonably sized), but keep in mind that 1) it is 100% cotton & well made and 2) you get two skeins for ~$9, which is comparable if not slightly more than one skein that is equal in weight/length to these two skeins added together. It all kind of evens out.

I also want to add that it was almost impossible to find a 2 (Fine) yarn weight in 100% cotton that wasn't actually overpriced (the website I got my pattern from sold their 100g skeins for ~$20), so finding this yarn was a godsend lol. I highly recommend it, just keep in mind how much you'll need. For small projects, 2 skeins will likely be enough.
