    This yarn is so soft!! The color is honeycomb and the color is even prettier in person! Love it ! Will be making an entire sweater out of it ???? for the three pack I ordered it’s worth every penny!

    Shipping was a bit of an issue. Ordered it the first time and it got lost so I had to reorder to but it was worth the wait!

    The yarn is very easy to crochet. It's soft. The emerald color make any kind of crichet project look beautiful. I made a small blanket for dogs and look how cute it looks.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Soft and sparkly
    Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2024
    Simply Soft Party yarn has more loft and is lighter in weight than the regular Simply Soft variety. It still has a nice sheen, and there's a sparkly fiber that twists around the yarn about every 1/4". It's listed as a #4 weight, but it functions more as a #5, I think.
    It's actually a bit easier to work with because it splits less than the regular Simply Soft yarn.
    It doesn't have the scratchiness that usually comes with metallic yarns. You can wear this against your skin.
    It's about twice as expensive as the regular Simply Soft yarn. It has about 165 yards. I've used it to create borders around my crochet Afghan motifs and it looks great.
    I'd like to try out all the different sparkle colors. So far, my favorite is the grey platinum sparkle.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Nice bright purple
    Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2021
    Caron Simply Soft (CSS) in Grape colorway is a nice bright yarn that pairs brilliantly with the Iris colorway, which is a very bright darker purple. They provide very good light/dark contrast for each other and work well with White as a complementary neutral.

    CSS is thinner than worsted but thicker than sport weight yarn.  For knitting it is absolutely delightful, but for crochet it takes some finesse.  The yarn has no elasticity at all, so I find that I have to use multiple hook sizes depending on the stitch I am making - sometimes two hooks in a single stitch - to maintain consistent tension appearance and avoid large holes at the tops of stitches.  The direction of the twist is ideal for knitting, so the 4 strands frequently untwist as I am crocheting and I have to take care not to split them or accidentally catch my hook on just 1.  It can get properly tangled, but it's easy to untangle because it has a very "slippy" kind of texture; a quality which requires that every stitch be worked through at least two loops to avoid the final fabric developing huge holes and tight knots at the top of your stitches, so I have adjusted my procedure for when a pattern calls for FLO or BLO.  Your finished fabric will feel nice almost no matter what you do with it, but you will need to adjust your hook size if you are making stitches with largely varying sizes becausd you cannot adjust enough just by holding the yarn tighter (trust me on this one, save your hands the pain.)

    Overall I still really like CSS, and have none of these problems at all when knitting with it, but I just don't recommend it for absolute beginner crocheters.  It can definitely be problematic to work with if you are not prepared to face the challenges it presents.

    10/10 drape quality for this stuff though.  Imitates silk blend yarns I have used pretty well.
