Basic Stitch Anti-Pill Yarn - Great for Heirloom Pieces (like afghans)

“Basic Stitch” Anti-Pill worsted weight yarn was a great choice for my cabled pineapple Afghan. I chose this yarn because it is machine washable and dryable, and the anti-pill quality will keep it in good shape for a long time. I want the recipients (a couple who will be getting married next year, so I knit this as their wedding gift) to actually USE this afghan, not just store it in a hope chest. I picked Mustard because yellow is the bride’s favorite color. The yarn is soft, and easy to work with. Would definitely select again if I decide to make another afghan or “heirloom” type piece.

Lovely yarn

I’m new to crochet but I think this is my favorite type of yarn to work with so far. I got the crochet kit. Easy to work with. So soft. No pilling as stated! I’ve even gone to purchase more I have enjoyed working with it so much.

True to it’s word!

Not only is this yarn beautifully smooth, it does what it says & does not pill! I have only used it on the pictured blankets in conjunction with another, but I’m looking forward to working with it again to see how it does alone!

Great yarn.

Great yarn - soft with slight sheen. Easy to work. I've made a couple large scarves/wraps with it and hangs well and wears well.

Excellent yarn!

I have used this yarn for several baby blankets. It's not as soft as yarn made specifically for baby blankets, but it's still quite soft especially after one wash. Very easy to work with and drapes well. Will be buying again. I do wish there was a larger selection of colors
