Caron One Pound Solids Yarn, 16oz, Gauge 4 Medium, 100% Acrylic - Black- For Crochet, Knitting & Crafting ( 1 Piece )

Its cheap and you can tell. Maybe Im spoiled spending money on softer yarns but I expected this to be a bit better than red heart. The afghan Im working on is stiff and has no drape. Had to order different yarn.

This yarn is the softest that I have found for making lapgans to donate to the veterans hospital

love it

One of my grands wanted a Pittsburgh penguin blanket.

Perfect

I love using this Caron one pound yarn for my more sturdy Amirugumi crochet projects. It works better than other acrylic yarns I’ve used for projects. I used this brand in particular to make the body of my Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy Amirugumi crochet projects. I would definitely buy it again.

The oositive? There is a lot of yardage. The negative? This yarn is perhaps the worst I’ve ever used. It’s coarse and scratchy. It sometimes feels like there is plastic in it. It’s hard to work with because of it being so rough. I bought ught it to make an afghan for our bed and I’m very disappointed. Also, I purchased two skeins of cream. It’s not cream. It’s yellow. All in all, an inferior product.

This is the first time I have ever bought Caron on Amazon and I am very unhappy with the product I received. I bought 2 of the one pound skeins and both of them are full of shredded yarn. I have to keep cutting out destroyed pieces in order to continue with my work. I have contacted the manufacturer but I have heard nothing back. I will not be ordering more like this through Amazon in the future. :(

When using yarn that states no dye lot , make sure you finish your project with one full skein. If your project needs more then one large skein the color of the yarn will look different in color. There is always a noticeable variation of color. Otherwise, if the one skein is enough yarn for your project I would recommend this yarn.

Love these bulk yarns. Thanks!
