I have been admiring landscapes color palettes for so long, but clearly I was right to avoid it. I am in love with these colors, the saturation is to die for. But it’s so hard to work with! It splits so much making it really hard to frog. The halo of fuzz also tangles in spots, which just ruins the section because you have to cut it out. I’m barely halfway done with my project and it already looks so old because of the fuzzy halo. It’s really a reminder of why I avoid roving yarn.
Lovely soft yarn with long changes from color to color. There are thickness variations. Also frogging is slow at times because of the fine strands that get caught as you’re pulling out stitches. All in all I’m very pleased with the colors of the “Sunset” color I chose and the workability of this yarn. Highly recommend!
I am a yarn junkie. This yarn is super soft, works up well, and I love how this yarn details the stitches. The colors are so vibrant and beautiful. I ordered the "Apple Orchard" and am loving the way my project is looking. I am anxious to finish it. By far, I love Lion Brand Yarns, they are a super quality product.
This yarn is great. I love the color variegation - it makes beautiful crochet pieces like the scarf below. The yarn is really easy to work with and never separates. This is true of all the lion brand yarns I’ve worked with.
Definitely 5 stars .
I was very pleased with the colors in the blanket, and happy with how quickly the blanket worked up. I did have concern about some of the thin places in the yarn, and hope it won't create a problem long term with the blanket.
I love this yarn so much, the colors and sheen are amazing. I suppose however it might not be for everyone because the thickness does vary greatly as you work through it. I started with the recommended hook size and initially ran into sections where a much smaller hook would have seemed better. However I’m now using a skein which is almost entirely way too thick for the recommended hook, making it a bit difficult. Plus, the pattern I’m using (bag o day polychromatic blanket) uses a complimentary color in between rows of shells. I used a worsted weight but of course it doesn’t really work well with this highly variable yarn. Despite this, I will continue with the whole blanket and enjoy the unexpected texture I’m creating.
But lion brand, please please please come out with a solid color yarn that is the same style as this one. It’s gorgeous and I want to make so many things with it in solid colors.
