Lion Brand Yarn Company Cotton Yarn, 100 Percent Cotton, Goldenrod,15.24x6.35x6.35 cm

Interesting yarn, it is braided so has a rough feel but is actually smooth so I expect it to have less fraying and hobbling than regular 8 ply cotton yarn.The pack states mercerised but unlike the mercerised cotton 8 am used to from Scheepjes or anchor this has no shine to it.It is easy to work worth, I am using it to crochet a plant retainer ( to reign in my lavender) so I chose the two colours that best blended in with the lavender, which are the sage green and the purple , both are dusky colours, muted and work well for my project although the purple is much lighter in real life than on my screen whereas the green is exactly the same.Although it is 100g, because of the dense braided nature of the yarn, that doesn't equate to a long length.Definitely recommend for any structural projects, it could init up into a sturdy jumper or socks, but I personally wouldn't use it for clothing, it's more suited to sturdy things like toys or practical items like bags or pillow cases in my opinion.

Nice colour nice quality

Had a pattern call for this exact yarn so decided on two diffetent colours as I struggled to choose. Worked up nicely, looks great and love my new sun hat!

I needed a good colour to crochet the inside of my cucumber slices and this was what I could find.It's a nice sturdy wool almost like a thicker embroidery thread. Although I would say not for anything you want to crochet that's fluffy.The colour matches the photo so you get what you are paying for.The only downside is £5+ is expensive for one ball of wool, although again, it appears to be a better quality and embroidery thread is expensive anyway.

This yarn has a beautiful colour and sheen and a silky feel. It is easy to crochet and doesn’t split or fray. The price is a little higher than average but worth it for the quality.

I have just finished this mini bag and I found this yarn is easy to knit and I enjoyed it so much so I have ordered another two. This yarn is gorgeous and shiny.

Excellent yarn 🧶 I used to make icord! Great vibrant colours and strong. Would love to see the price a bit more affordable.
