(1 Skein) Lion Brand Yarn 512-312 Summer Nights Bonus Bundle Yarn, Sunset

This yarn is gorgeous! It is a fine, almost lace-weight yarn. It would make gorgeous light scarves or shawls. I am an adult who collects dolls and loves making wardrobes for them, so I use this yarn for dolls clothing. It is lovely to knit or crochet with, although it does like to split a little from time to time. I am using the smaller sizes of hooks and needles, however, and I suspect that larger sizes, which is what one would be using for scarves or shawls, would probably not split the yarn so easily. I acknowledge that my opinion is suspect... After all, I am an adult who "plays" with dolls, but I have been working with yarns since I was about 12 years old (now a senior citizen), and I love this yarn. Does it have somewhat limited use? Yes, it does, but if your skills allow for a fine weight, slightly difficult to use yarn, I recommend it!

The picture does it justice! Ordinarily the saying would go 'the picture doesn't do it justice' but we yarn lovers know all too well what it's like to pick out a yarn that looks stunning in the picture and then when it arrives the colors aren't as bright and the weave isn't as smooth or the sparkle doesn't hold luster. This yarn is NOT like that. It is EXACTLY as it appears in the photo right down to the tiniest hint of metallic sparkle peppered through it. The description recommends using it as an additive in tandem with a larger yarn but I think that would be a complete shame. Trust me on this, once you have it you're going to want to break out your tiny needles and use it as is on it's own so plan accordingly and buy enough for whatever project you have in mind. It's delicate but the end result is going to be luxurious!

This will be the 7th sweater I have knitted in this yarn. Nice and fine, knits up well

I started a baby blanket & ordered additional skeins to make sure I had enough. I make my baby blankets about 3x5 so they're big enough to use as they go and throw over the carrier car seat to block wind, cold & sun.I was really surprised how much worked up from 1 skein. This color is turning out so beautiful.

This yarn is very sparkly and not tightly spun

Needed 1 skein to complete project & luck to find the same dye lot for reasonable price.

Perfect for shawls, gloves or socks. Can also be added to another solid yarn for some added POP..

I was doing a project for a gift, and was running low on this yarn. Did I mention that the yarn is discontinued? This seller had exactly what I needed and sent it to me ASAP! THANK YOU!

Have to be careful in choice of yarn to combine this with. Still looking!
