> 3 dayI bought this to crochet little balls to use as ornaments on a ridiculous Christmas tree hat that I made. The yarn worked perfectly. Wonderfully bright colors. Excellent quality yarn. No breaks or loose areas. Consistent quality.

> 3 dayTerrific stitch definition. When I want to show beginners how to recognize the different parts of a stitch, this is what I show it to them on. Its lovely for doing lacy projects. Depending on need, you may want one of the finer weights of Aunt Lydia Crochet Yarn. For comparision, #10 is noticeably thicker than sewing thread but much thinner than a sport weight yarn. Its stretchy as heck. When blocked, my Aunt Lydias Crochet Thread projects end up being 60-80% bigger than before they were unblocked. (Its easy to block cotton without stretching it much, if you dont want to. However, the yarn itself is stretchy enough that the weight of your project can make its fabric grow at least somewhat more than what you intended.) If youve never worked with yarn of this weight before, FYI: it requires quite small hooks, and its helpful to have excellent vision. On the up-side, every stitch is so crisp that its very easy to count them or catch mistakes. I like the Natural colorway, which has a slight yellow undertone that makes it look like your lace must have been made decades ago by grandma. Ironically, the Antique White colorway leans heavier to white, which looks less like an heirloom. A neat thing is that just a single skein of this is enough to make several scarves!

> 3 dayI bought these on a sale so value for money is a bit skewed. The metallic thread snaps easily.

> 3 dayI have used a lot of Aunt Lydia’s string, but I don’t know what it was with these last few that I bought? The color was kind of dingy, so I don’t know if I want to use them or send them back!!!!
