Bernat Blanket Bright Yarn, Carrot Orange

I used it to crochet a small afghan. I am a loose crocheter and it took me 4 skeins to make this afghan which is 116 cms X 94 cms. It is a little challenging to crochet such bulky yarn. Had to change the way I hold my hook. It is pretty light and doesnt twist. Glides nicely on the hook. Yardage is also not bad. I have one skein left and will use use it to crochet a shower mat. Doesnt lose its fluff when crocheting.

This color was easy to work with.

The color is ugly

This yarn is so squishy and soft! For an adult size throw (60”x50”) I used 40oz/1,440g or just under 4 big balls. Ch 95 with 8mm hook, then stitch simple DCs on every row until desired length and I added a HDC border with a 10mm hook. I had 2.5oz left over. I do recommend washing it before gifting your items because it smells strongly of the plastic it was shipped in, but it is so lovely!

I LOVE this yarn! Its so fast and easy to work with! The only thing that takes a longer time if you like to cast on a little tightly like me, is the casting on. It took me a while to get the hang of it, but this yarn is great! I definitely plan on getting more! :) Its definitely great for making blankets, but it might take more than one ball of it to make a blanket for an adult like me. My friend who uses this yarn says that she uses 4 skeins of this stuff, and it reaches from her shoulders to her toes. she might be a bit taller than me. Im 55, I but I might do five anyway so that I can have more to be cozied up in. The material is super soft!

I ordered many skeins of this yarn for a project. Pros: Soft, beautiful color, easy to use, washable. Cons: As others have mentioned, there are a number of areas that the yarn has been knotted. This did not negatively impact my project as I could trim pieces and it worked into my blanket easily. Might be an issue for some projects. I did place a second order in a different color for another project because I love the softness of the yarn.

I love this yarn. It will be a blanket for my soon to be born great-granddaughter. It knits & crochets easily. I will surely order it again. One blanket is not enough.

Very soft yarn. Easy to work with if you have a bigger hook to crochet! Perfect colors for my nephew as we are trying to be gender neutral.

Not only is this yarn perfect for blankets but also reusable water balloons! It is exactly what I need and use to crochet them! Holds the water perfectly!

I didn’t post a picture because I forgot to take a picture of the beautiful blanket I made for a friend’s new baby. But is my favorite selection when it comes to crocheting baby blankets. it took several weeks to find, it was sold out everywhere.
