Cotton Select 100% Cotton Yarn, 4 Skein Assorted Color Surprise Package

This yarn is great! It is so soft that it almost feels buttery. I have not blocked my project yet, and if the softness changes for the worse after blocking, I will update this review. The yarn is on the finer side, but I cannot gauge what size it is. At first inspection, it seems like fingering weight / sock yarn, but when doubled, it becomes worsted, almost chunky. So I am going to say that this is sport / DK weight yarn. (though I am still unsure haha) The colors in the product photos need to be updated, because they are more saturated than depicted. All of the colors seemed earthy from the photos, but they are very much true to color. The yellow is YELLOW. The white is WHITE. And so on. The brown/tan, however, is actually more of a peach. This actually hurt my project because I really needed a brown to ground all of the bright colors. Though I am not dissatisfied with the colors, I think the project would have been much more pleasing to the eye, had I been provided a tan/brown rather than a peach. Overall, I’m satisfied with the products and will continue to use them whenever I have gift knitting that calls for DK weight yarn, because I don’t want to use expensive yarn for something that may not fit or be worn by the recipient. It is a great price for wonderful yarn. I will just have to remember to keep in mind that the colors are more saturated than they appear.

Super soft and easy to work with. The skeins where a little smaller then I'm used to working with but besides that I works great for clothes. It's super lightweight and pretty. The colors are super saturated.

I purchased 5 4-packs (reds, oranges, purples, greens, and blues) for a garment I’m crocheting. As you can (hopefully!) see from the photo, the colors are beautiful and mix well with each other. The yarn is thinner than advertised (maybe a weight of 1 instead of 2) but it’s perfect for the light, lacy look I want. The background yarn (denim blue from a different company) is actually a 2 weight, and I have no difficulty working them together. I’m using a D hook (3.0 mm), and it’s the perfect size for this yarn. I’m enjoying working with this yarn because of its softness and how smoothly it flows as I’m using it. Also, the cheerful colors don’t hurt! I’m already starting to plan my next garment with this yarn!

Smaller and thinner than I thought

I'm not sure what I expected from the description "sport weight yarn," but this was not it. While the color is nice, it is a very thin yarn; I would almost call it thread instead of yarn. I have ordered 'bulk' yarn like this before so I expected the size of the skeins to be small, but the size of these were decent being there were 4 skeins. Bought it thinking that I would use the yarn to crochet a summer baby onesie, but the texture is not soft enough for babies' skin in my opinion. Its not rough but because the threads are so thin they aren't soft either; VERY stiff yarn, might have to waterblock the project i end up using it for a couple of times to soften the fibers. The description does not say anything about crochet hooks, but it does recommend a 3.25 mm knitting needle which is about the equivalent of a size D crochet hook, but I am not fond of using smaller crochet hooks so I sized up to a size F hook and find that it works with it as well.

Great yarn, easy to work with. highly recommend.

This is a very light cotton yarn perfect for making baby blankets and sweaters. The colors are beautiful I got the reds the oranges and the yellows.

I've spent many years of my life knitting and crocheting and have used miles and miles of yarn. Never have I ever had to spend so much time untangling the yarn before I can use it! I was hoping the pink mess in the photo was going to be a fluke but it wasn't. Every single skein has been the same way. The yarn itself is ok, colors are pretty...but it's way too frustrating to ever consider ordering again. I will definitely be ordering a different brand the next time.

Gorgeous to work with.

I really thought for that price the ad meant we were xo receiving the entire group of 40 balls of colours. Instead the red were only 4 in the package I received. I would never have paid that amount for only 4 balls! The picture and description should have clearly portrayed only 4 balls- not 40 balls!

لقد طلبته وهو من حيث الخامه جميل جدا ، بكن عتبي عليكم انكم تعرضون 28 قطعة مع ان الطلب فيه فقط 4 حبات من الصوف واعتبره نوع من التحايل على المشتري اذ ان المشتري قد لا ينتبه الى ان الوصف يحوي انه 4 قطع ، فلقد اعتدنا منكم ان ما تعرضوه بالضبط هو السلعه تماما كما في كل بضائعكم التي تم طلبها من قبل ، لقد ارجعت الطلب فلم اعلم ان 4 حبات فقط ستكلفني 74 درهم شامل التوصيل 🤦🏻‍♀️

I love the soft texture and the color. I'm really hoping for a restock. I definitely want to buy it again!!

Les balles sont très petites.
