Great yarn for children's projects

This is great yarn in general. It doesn’t pill, doesn’t split, and has no knots in it. I would definitely use it again. It’s soft too. I use it for a children’s jumper. It’s not quite finished, but I think it will wear well.

I purchased the yarn to make a baby afghan for my niece whose nursery theme is rain forest. The colors are vibrant and matched their online depictions well. It works up well and easily. Most importantly, the yarn is soft and comfortable feeling; perfect for a baby Afghan. I’m very pleased with this purchase!

Great selection of yarns

Cascade 220 Superwash Merino is a great yarn. It's soft, versatile and comes in a huge selection of colors. I call it my workhorse yarn because it can be used for just about anything. LoveCrafts always has a great selection of yarns at great prices and their shipping is quick, and I love how they package the yarn in the organza bags. Such a nice touch!

Smooth service

I used this yard for a knitted blanket for my grand-daughter because of its merino wool and wash-ability. Loved the result. Now I ordered more for my next grand-baby blanket

Wanted to try this yarn to make a hat on my Addi King size, I did not buy paprika- I got the grey. Both Addi and son love this yarn. It is lovely and soft and crochets and knits very well.
