I recently purchased the 24/7 Cotton® Yarn in the Dragonfly color, and I am thoroughly impressed with its quality and performance. Here’s a detailed review of my experience:
Color and Appearance:
The Dragonfly color is absolutely stunning. It’s a vibrant, rich hue that stands out and adds a beautiful touch to any project. The color is consistent throughout the skein, with no variations or dye lot issues.
Quality of Yarn:
The 24/7 Cotton® Yarn is made of 100% mercerized cotton, giving it a smooth, lustrous finish. The yarn feels soft to the touch and is easy to work with. It has a slight sheen that adds a polished look to finished projects. The yarn is also very durable, holding up well to handling and stitching without fraying or splitting.
Ease of Use:
Crocheting with this yarn has been a pleasure. It glides smoothly on the hook and stitches up evenly, making it perfect for a variety of projects. Whether you’re making garments, accessories, or home décor items, this yarn performs beautifully. It’s especially great for creating detailed stitches and patterns.
Pack of 2:
The pack of 2 skeins is a convenient option, providing enough yarn for larger projects or multiple smaller items. It’s also a great value, offering high-quality yarn at a reasonable price.
Care Instructions:
The yarn is machine washable and dryable, which is a big plus for practicality and ease of care. Finished projects can be washed without worrying about shrinkage or color fading.
Final Thoughts:
The 24/7 Cotton® Yarn in Dragonfly is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for high-quality, beautiful yarn. Its vibrant color, smooth texture, and durability make it a standout option for a wide range of projects. I highly recommend it to crocheters and knitters alike. This yarn will not disappoint!

I'm surprising my husbands cousin with cute house warming gifts. Hand towels, coasters, dishcloths.
What I like about this brand is it's versatility.
▫️I can make a multi-piece product and not worry about it being "off in color". With that being said, I purchase yarn in the amount I need for a product/project to avoid issues of that nature.
▫️Being 100% cotton it's Texture is of good quality. It's soft but strong and I can tell it will be perfect for dish cloths.
▫️It is machine washable per the label but I'll probably look up more indepth instructions for care.
▫️I've already started to work it up and it does get softer, it's performance is great as I haven't noticed any knotting so far. Also I usually use 1 or a 1/2 size smaller hook in general than recommended (personal preference). I used a 3.5 mm hook, but it does call for a 4mm.
▫️Overall I am very happy with my purchase and will continue to use it as long as they keep producing the same quality product.
▫️Certain colors are inexpensive. But other colors are priced ridiculously high. If you run into this issue with certain colors like I did - My solution to that was to:
????️Take down the brand name
????️ Get the name of the color skien
????️Put it into the amazon search engine and see if there are any cheaper deals. OR go to a different storefront and look else where. Thankfully I've been able to find the colors I need at $5 or under on this sellers page and on another sellers page. To be clear, I am not suggesting getting the SAME color skien from two different sellers. The yarn could be from two different lots and you might end up with slight color variations.
(I paid for 3 silver, 3 dark grey, 3 pack of taupe, 3 Ecru, 3 multi-pink/beige yarns).
I'll update this post after the completion of my project.
Happy Crocheting to all!
