    This yarn is soft, easy to knit with, comes in beautiful colors, nice bulky yarn. Made a hat for a child with it, and it's very durable!

    Good quality yarn, and lovely neutral color! We used it to hang up our Christmas stockings. It's soft and was strong enough to hold them without difficulty. We have plenty left over, and I imagine it will be put to good use!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Heavy Warm durable, but expensive.
    Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2025
    I really like using this yarn to make afghans. The yarn is heavy and warm and makes a great blanket. because it is acrylic it is easy to just throw in the washer and dryer. The only down side is because the fibers are so short they are prone to a lot of pilling and fraying. This means they will have a pretty used looked fairly quickly. On the other hand, I use one of the afghans made with this yarn daily so it gets a lot of abuse and has held up well and has maintained a level of softness. The down side is you burn through a skein very fast and it can become expensive quickly. I also used this to make an afghan as a wedding present for friends and they love theirs.

    I’ve only been crocheting for a couple months but this yarn is great for beginners. It’s got a thickness and shine to it that I love. I used a 10 mm hook for this scarf it’s not perfect but I’ve got lots of compliments!

    One of my favorite yarn for both knitting and crochet. The price is reasonable and comes in many great colors. Contains no wool so great for people needing hypoallergenic yarn.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Rich color, silky smooth yarn perfect for a cozy crochet blanket
    Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2024
    This yarn is one of my favorite yarns to work with and this color was perfect for the beach glass color theme I that I had in mind to go with the Deep Sea assortment I had already gotten in this line. The yarn glides across the crochet hook and stitches are smooth and polished. It is a bit of a loose weave, so you do have to be mindful not to pick up a thread from a previous stitch. I hope Lion keeps this yarn around forever!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Hard to Work With For Beginners
    Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2024
    I got this yarn to finger knit a hat for my husband. The yarn color is very pretty and the yarn itself is very soft to the touch. I am very new to finger knitting, this was my second project, my first being a scarf. I found it a bit difficult to use this yarn because it was very fuzzy and it was hard sometimes to keep track of the loops that I was supposed to put the working yarn into because the yarn was too fuzzy for me to clearly see the loop. I'm sure there is a technical term for that but as a beginner, I don't know the term. My hat turned out okay, I wasn't that pleased with it and the video that I watched to show me how to finger knit it didn't use yarn that was this fuzzy, although the video said to use bulky yarn so that was another reason I chose this one. I will say the hat was very warm due to the yarn but if I had to do it over again, I would of chosen a different yarn that wasn't so fuzzy.
