Customer Reviews
The yarn has a loose twist for the ply, makes for a soft, kind of sloppy, soft and spongy- on a good way. Just takes a minute to learn how to work with, just like any other medium you need to learn its language. Just wish the alternative colors, I got the teal, tan, and white came in bigger skeins.
I wasn't sure I was going to like crocheting with super bulky yarn, but this Hometown has been very enjoyable to work with. Stitching is very smooth and the color - Reseda Dojo - is lovely.
I bought some in the store that I LOVED, but I had to order more to finish my blanket. When I got the “new” blue, it did not have the same finish as the other and that made it a little larger and scratchier. The green was fine. So I used the “new” around the border and shortened the blanket. I’d use it again, but only if I bought in store and could look at the skeins. (Far left rows in the closeup are the thicker yarn)
I really liked the color combinations in this yarn for making baskets.
Very easy to work with and works up fast. Will use again if I am doing a project with bulky yarn!
Hometown is my go-to yarn for most of my large (and some small) projects. It is easy to handle; I have yet to encounter splitting; the stitches are beautiful; the colors are gorgeous (Hudson Bay is my particular favorite to add color and interest to combine with any solid color Hometown); the feel and drape of this yarn are both cozy and elegant. All-in-all, Hometown is a perfect yarn to choose for nearly everything, but if I do choose another yarn, you can be sure it is Lion Brand Yarn!!
