Love my Plymouth yarn choice.

I have purchased Plymouth yarns in the past, and have always liked what I bought. Encore feels like a nice cozy yarn for the crocheted sweater I am making. The pattern is from a crochet pattern book that was published several years ago by a Canadian crochet designer. There are some lovely patterns in the book. This particular pattern called for Plymouth Encore. I was very happy to find that this yarn hadn't been discontinued. The yarn is easy to work with and gives good stitch definition.

Great yarn for baby blankets

I have used this yarn for years. I am making a baby blanket. It is easy to knit with and washes beautifully.

I have used Plymouth Encore Worsted and DK yarns for many years. I love working with them. The garments I make turn out beautiful, and washing them afterwards is very easy.

My Favorite Worsted Acrylic

Plymouth Encore Acrylic has been my favorite worsted acrylic yarn for a long time. It has good loft and is washable and dryable. I use it for baby blankets, afghans, etc. My recent purchase has been used to crochet an American Flag which has turned out beautifully. I once had a problem with this yarn which I used for an afghan. After I washed it, it pilled terribly. My local yarn store returned it to Plymouth and they replaced the yarn I used. Have never had any problems with their yarn since....

Flawless customer service 100/10

I'm a crochet beginner and this yarn was very easy to work with for my first "big" project. Very forgiving and easy to use. The colors were great and very accurate to the pictures online. I'll definitely be buying more in the future!

Great Experience and Great Value

You have no idea how long I had to search multiple sites to find this color and weight for a specific project. Thank goodness LoveCraft carries it; I'd be lost if they didn't.

I really like the blend of this yarn - it's great for baby items because new mom's can easily take care of the blanket or sweater. Knits up nicely - textures are especially good use with this yarn.

Love Encore & LoveCrafts

I am using this skein in a multi-color striped textured baby blanket. I love the hand feel of the yarn the softness of the knitted area. The color is lovely. I really like having some wool in the blend yet having it easy to take care of.
