Sunset Nights Yarn - Discontinued
SKU: 507-607Z
DISCONTINUED: This yarn is no longer available; however, we make this information available as a courtesy to those who still have the yarn.
Sunset Nights comes in 100 gram (3.5oz), 273 yard (250m) cakes that tempt you with beautiful colors and a little bit of sparkle. This gently plied worsted weight yarn smoothly transitions colors as you work, creating a true ombré effect. Tiny sequins are spun onto the yarn throughout and provide just the right glimmer without overpowering the color or your stitches. Use this yarn to work up everything from accessories like scarves and hats to larger projects such as shawls and sweaters.

It makes up nice but it does split quite a bit.
Purchased this to make a granny dress, was not so sure about the way the fibers seemed loosely twisted. Was pleasantly surprised at how nicely it has worked up. My only criticism is that the sequins are not consistent to the point that the thread they are on are sometimes loops that stick out. I weave these in as I go to avoid pulling on the fibers. But overall very happy with this yarn. Ordered more. The color I used was the Atacama Desert.
This has been such a gorgeous yarn to work with! Unlike others, I haven’t had much trouble with the yarn splitting, although it is a bit thinner than most worsted weight yarn. But it’s so soft, and the sequins are well-spaced, even with the larger blocks of each color on my project I don’t notice that the end colors don’t have sequins. I’m making a 10-Stitch blanket for my cousin’s impending baby, and the sequins are small enough that I’m not worried about it scratching or itching the baby. I only wish I’d discovered this yarn before they started discontinuing colors, the Dolomites is exactly the kind of blues I was hoping for and I would love to have added Isle of Skye to complete this blanket. I found out the baby is a boy after I started the Santorini purples and now I’m looking for a color to balance it out, but the remaining options just aren’t quite right. I’m really sad about it because this is the first ombré yarn I’ve found that I actually like. Bring back more color options!
Colour Bali, using 5 mm knitting needles, project was cable knit scarf.
Good quality. Soft and easy to knit. Doesn't split. The colour transition was a bit more abrupt than anticipated (see photos).
Sequins are small and not consistently distributed throughout the entire ball. Good for a bit of sparkle but may not suffice if you are looking for a more substantial glitter accent (see photos).
Even without it being on cleanrace, this is a larger caker with the price. It's crazy soft and very pretty in design. And the sequins aren't noticable to touch but so cute to add on!
Not a perfectly consistent yarn, especially at color transitions. Splits easily. Random, tiny sequins give a pretty sparkle. Making a shawl for a gift for someone who wears pink, I think she'll like it.
