"The Coboo yarn is beautiful to crochet with. Although it can split it's not too much trouble and worth the product result which has a lovely drape. The only thing is you have to be sure of the colour. For example this particular cake I bought looked like powder pink, it did not match what I already had. Best to stick to job lot numbers I think. It's still one of my favorite yarns though as its so soft."

My go-to for the exact yarns needed!

Youngest daughter, at 33 years and a doctor of physical therapy, never liked the idea of my making her a garment. With this yarn she got a racerback top that she actually loves: the drape, feel, and sturdiness, along with the pretty color worked perfectly for her!

My favourite online shop

Never bought this before but my cardigan pattern required it, I bought in the sale which was great, it drapes well, feels soft lovely against my skin, it does split a little but you get the knack whilst making something not to split it

Just Love LoveCrafts

Lovely drape to this yarn, dropped a star because it splits. It’s worth it for the finished result. Maybe not for the beginner but anyone with a bit of experience will manage no problem.

Love this yarn I’ve made 3 baby blankets for family with it up to now - the drape is beautiful and it’s so soft. I’ve started another and got another in the pipeline. This yarn produces lovely items but it’s a bit difficult to knit with at times as it splits but the most irritating thing is there are also knots - there were three in one ball I used - the reason for four stars - but it won’t stop me using it - I love it.
