## Description

Caron Simply Soft yarn is one of the most popular, versatile worsted weight yarns. Incredibly soft to the touch, this yarn is perfect from a variety of projects from baby to fashion to home décor. Simply Soft comes in an extensive array of colors, from neutrals, to pastels and brights, as well as vibrant neons – the perfect shade for every project! With a unique sheen, this yarn works up with a fabulous, lustrous look, with a beautiful drape. Conveniently machine washable and dryable for easy care.

Review: Beautiful Great Quality Yarn! - I absolutely love the Caron Simply Soft Tweeds yarn. The color is gorgeous—soft and neutral with little darker brown flecks that add just the right amount of texture and visual interest. It feels incredibly smooth, making it perfect for projects that need a cozy, soft finish. It works up beautifully without splitting, and the weight is consistent across the skein. Whether you're knitting or crocheting, this yarn is super easy to work with. I also love that a single skein has a generous amount of yardage, which makes it a good value for the price. Highly recommend this yarn for blankets, scarves, sweaters, and any project where you want softness with a touch of character. I’m currently working on a Tree Of Life afghan and it’s turning out beautiful.
Review: I love it. One of my favorite yarns. - I love this yarn! It is so soft & feels so luxurious. It drapes beautifully & I bought more to play with. Unfortunately I moved and could not find the yarn I previously purchased to finish these(tho I just did unpack it now that I’ve moved lol) so my dye lots do not match. I used 2 skeins of yarn with a 3dc, 3sc pattern and a sc border. It’s 86”x22” or thereabouts. I’ll be making a hat too. If you can get a nice slick hook it works up fast & beautifully. I bought set of Pioneer Woman hooks on clearance at Wally World that was in between sizes apparently so this was worked with a 5.25mm hook instead of the 5.00mm hook the yarn advises to use. I’m allergic to the sun so I like to wear light shawls in spring & summer and in winter bc of its size I can wrap it around my neck multiple x and it still works. The only issues I’ve had with it is using the invisible knot or magic knot bc it came undone. Luckily I saw it while doing my border & I tied another knot-several x so it looks a bit goofy in that one section rn, but idc. I love it. It feels great. And I don’t care if other ppl wanna look for my mistakes. It’s functional. It’s beautiful. It’s got an ok price point. I just wish they would sell it in 1 pound skeins bc I’d use it to make just about everything. I used some to make a granny square too. It just feels so nice in ur hands while working with it and it feels lovely on ur skin. I bought more in more colors. Hoping to make a ripple afghan with it one day and some shopping bags tho I usually use cotton for them. This color scheme- Oceana- would make a lovely evening purse imo.

LOVE this yarn. So soft. I've made sweaters from Simply Soft & they turn out amazing. The yarn sometimes has a tendency to split - but not enough to make me want to stop buying it.
