Making a handcrafted gift requires time, care, creativity, and that magic ingredient: love.

The ultra-soft fibers provide excellent stitch definition, making it perfect for knitting or crocheting full-sized baby blankets, sweaters, and home décor projects.

Easy to work with.

This yarn is a great yarn for any project. I think it runs a little on the thin side but works up well. Alone I think it’s a little scratchy but incorporated with another yarn it works well. I have used this in several projects and enjoy working with it. I just wish my local craft store had a larger selection to choose from.

Such a versatile yarn!

I love this yarn! It's a perfect worsted (#4 weight) yarn, soft and available in so many rich, fashion-forward colors! It's suitable for anything from baby blankets to scarves to cardigans. My favorite project using "Pound of Love" is "The Parker Throw" by Meaghan Makes Do. I just started knitting my 6th one--nearly all of them for wedding gifts! It's easy to make, and the finished product is an elegant gift that looks carefully "hand-made" and bespoke--not at all "homemade. Easy to machine wash & dry as well.

Very nice to work with

I made my first crocheted sweater with the pumpkin spice color. Absolutely no tangles, no factory knots, or splitting. Would buy again.

I usually don't like this yarn on its own (it just feels scratchy to me) but I do like holding it with other yarns like mohair to make it fun! I made this sweater with pound of love antique white held with a pink lash thread.

I used this yarn to make a baby blanket and matching hat for a coworker expecting his first baby. The yarn worked up nice, washed good, and looked so cute!
