Customer Reviews
I was so excited to get my first order of this 5/2 cotton!! I had a whole outfit (top and maxi skirt) to make with this cotton. I love the rich tobacco color. The yarn is fairly soft for mercerized cotton. There were a few things I did not find appealing though. There were sections were it looked like fine bits were woven into the strands which I thought were frays and there are 2 knots so far. I am not even half way through the first cone. And I don't recall cotton being so "grabby". It tangles up on itself. You can't pull out very much from the cone at a time or it can knot. I am almost done with the skirt but I really wish this yarn was better quality.
This is one of my favorite yarns you get alot and it dosnt fray at all. It works up super easily!
This yarn is easy to work with. Color is deep and vibrant. Wove fabric for a tote bag. Will buy again.
I used this to make my wedding dress. I ordered in February and just finished now in September. I was hesitant as there weren't many reviews, so to help anyone else, I am here to say this is great yarn for your garments! I cannot wait to wear it in October.
Absolutely love there cone thread works up very nicely and the amount on cone is amazing alot of colors to choose from too,quick shipping glad I’m a customer
The feel of this yarn is high quality. It feels much more expensive than the actual price tag. All the colors I Iordered are rich and vibrant. I ended up ordering a few more colors to work with.
