5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite yarn for dish clothes!
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2024
I have uses this brand of yarn for many years to crochet dish cloths and pot holders. Colors are true and don't fade quickly. They hold up well to all sorts of kitchen abuse. I will continue to buy this yarn!

I think Lily's Sugar 'n Cream all-cotton yarn is a workhorse in the kitchen. I crochet and knit with it to make hot pads, dish cloths, and dish towels. This is a worsted weight (#4) yarn and it knits or crochets to a dense fabric. I find the items shrink up when washed and dried. I use a little bleach on my dish cloths, and the color will fade a bit when I do. I prefer buying it in the cones for ease of use and just the greater amount of yarn; although it should be noted it is not necessarily knot free; in the Sage I came across a neat knot. Had I been making a dishcloth, I would have finished it before I came to it; it appeared about midway through my knitting a dish towel. The photo shows a folded dish towel I made with Woodland Trails and just beneath it is the dish towel in Sage. The greens do not match in the two towels but both are pretty. This yarn is soft enough to work but I know it washes up rather stiff without fabric softener. I do not recommend this for clothing and it would make a very heavy blanket so I really don't recommend it for that either unless that is what you want. But for household items: kitchen cloths, mats, hot pads, tote bags, maybe hats, etc. it is an excellent choice in cotton yarn. The Woodland Trails label said it was U.S. grown cotton and the yarn was made in Canada. For comparison I think Lion Brand 24/7 cotton (which I would use for garments instead of the Lily Sugar 'n Cream) is lighter in weight than the Sugar 'n Cream) even though both say they are #4. Both nice products, but for hearty or dense items, I think Lily Sugar 'n Cream is the best choice and a good value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Large cones save headaches!
Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2024
A great worsted weight cotton, in general, used as a utilitarian cotton. Most don’t use it for clothing, so don’t expect it to be soft to work with. That comes later after a good washing. Sturdy, well made. Consistent color throughout cone. Large cone means lots less weaving in ends in large projects, and the price is better if you need a large amount. Do expect the occasional joining knot, a necessary in manufacturing. I’m almost through my first of 5 cones, and have come across 1 join so far, which was easily hidden in my work.

I used this gray and white to make the cutest Panda puppet washcloth for my Great Granddaughter’s 5th Birthday. It is a child friendly yarn that can be washed multiple times and look nice.

I plan on using it to make some dramatic dishcloths for my Daughters. It works up easy and doesn’t ruin my hands.

4.0 out of 5 stars holly/jolly yarn bleeds in the wash and turns to pink
Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2023
I crocheted a beautiful blanket with the color holly/jolly, which I thought was a neutral year-round color. Then, I washed it in cold water and vinegar after it was finished. The final product was pink in color instead of the color beige speckled with red and green. I was flabbergasted at the results and was glad I wasn't giving it as a gift. So. I then rewashed it with 1/4 cup of bleach and detergent. The result was that it washed out the medium pink and it is now has a very light pink hue. Since, I am very happy with the stitching and the fact that it feels good and it is a qualuty blanket, I plan to keep it. However, I had no idea that the colors would run to the extent that they did. No more red yarn for me.

I noticed they changed the color name from Holy Jolly to Miseltoe. Don't be fooled because the yarn looks great after making your item, but when you wash it , the color bleeds and the item will be pink. So if you want a pink item, then go for it.

I've used this brand before for double thick potholders. They are my husband's favorite over the quilted kind I've made.
Easy to crochet, haven't tried knitting with this yarn.
