Questions & Answers

Are there 6 skeins in this order?

We are listing six skeins of the Royal Blue Softee Chunky Yarn with this listing.

The distance between each ball is how many yards? In how many ounces do you weigh it? This looks like a 5 or 6 weight yarn, or does it have a different weight?

It is very helpful to see your post! 108 yards are in each ball, and it weighs 3 ounces. The website of a supplier indicates these numbers. There are five ounces in this package. A bulky weight 6, 6 yarn is used for the *br>This is what I hope will help.

In the package of a single skein, the same linen softee chunky yarn is shown as "machine wash and dry.". Does this have the same meaning?

I was able to wash and dry this yarn very well. This is the white color that I purchased

I can see in the photo that the color of the yarn in the photo has the baby yellow that I'm looking for, but the color is listed as being The yarn is yellow in color, isn't it?

This photo of Natural Softee chunky yarn makes the Natural color look almost gray. It can range from an extremely pale yellow to a very bright yellow in the photos. It is the first time I have seen either of these colors You can shop in a store or take a chance and order a skein or two if you are concerned. In the event that you are not satisfied This should be returned to you. The way I would do it is this. Hope it works out for you.

Does 'softee' have a soft part to it? Getting this yarn to crochet a cape with a stand-up collar for a friend
3/5

Thought she would enjoy the color but ended up not liking it. The gift is not something I'll be giving A good deal of the yarn is incredibly rough, almost to the point of being extremely However, it does not have the quality I expected. Although it did work up well, and there were no splits or tangles, it does not have the quality I expected. I do not really like the color either, it's not what I was expecting at all. As for gifts, I don't think it's good enough to use it to knit mittens or hats for myself. I have 3 more skeins of it, which I will probably use to make hats or mittens for me. Bernat yarns have been good for me in the past, but they all contained wool. I think the major difference is that it's all acrylic, so maybe it's the lack of wool content. There is, however, a similar weight yarn from Lion Brand that is 100% acrylic, and the texture is much better.

This color is creamy yellow in its natural state
3/5

Bernat Soft and Bernat Media are the tools I use For a long time, I've been looking for chunky yarn in colors like this. I ordered the Natural color and received something creamy yellow in the mail. The color of this powder certainly isn't the same as the Natural sold in stores or by comparison, not even close to the Natural I currently My most likely course of action is to return the item to Amazon and hope that linen and denim blue are the actual colors they should Sorry to hear that! I'm very disappointed.

Problems with the shipment
3/5

Although I was misled, I appreciate them deciding to cancel my full order when pressed to do so. The product is a great value for the money, but I am not sure if I will purchase from them again as I believe they were dishonest.

I've never felt anything like it! This is the first time in twenty years that I'm crocheting again after doing so for 20+ years
5/5

CHUNKY yarns caught my eye and I thought they might produce thicker work quicker. I guess so. When I finished knitting three rows with another brand, I started knitting with Lavender and was astonished at its smooth, soft texture, especially compared to those of another brand. This is a known brand I use. It's even possible to tell the difference between the brands in the photo. A good use of money!.

This yarn is chunky and great
5/5

The kind of knitting yarn I tend to prefer in some situations is "fat yarn" (some projects, for whatever reason, aren't suited The following is what I discovered when it came time to make It took longer for the soap to soak through the thicker yarn, so it ate through the soap bar faster than it should have when I made another one with "skinny yarn", this was no longer an issue). The particular yarn in this color (forest- a sagey, earthy green) I'm currently working with is being used to make a large queen-size patterned blanket when it gets cold this winter. I love the way it is soft, and I love how it is easy to work with. (I also love the color green, which is the color my favorite). It'll take about 20+ skeins for this blanket, so it's nice to see these 6 packs at such an affordable price. Besides this color, I've also tried other colors by this brand, and they are equally beautiful. As a general rule, I use this If I need fat yarn, this is the place I go to as it's a good quality for the price and often affordable. Would recommend it highly.

All other colors are brought to life by its beauty
5/5

Late in December I crocheted a queen-size blanket and it has been hanging in my bedroom ever since I was looking for something with a deeper I love the way it looks against lighter colors, it is soft, and it is absolutely stunning Because the dark taupe really brings out these lighter colors, I chose to border the whole blanket in that color, & then I trimmed the edges to finish it off. In fact, I got carried away so much, I ended up with king size! With this yarn, which is thick and heavy, all from the same manufacturer, I felt warmth, beauty, and strength in my hands It has the weight of a handmade quilt, which is what I was looking for. We will also have fewer blankets in the spring and summer. I was blown away by the beauty of my blanket, which exceeded my expectations in every way. This is my new addiction! It's all in the timing (pun intended. ).

I would recommend this yarn, but because of the small skeins you may need to purchase a lot to complete all your projects
5/5

A vibrant shade of red, soft, thick and perfect for blanket making. It's usually more difficult to use double strands for my blankets, but the quality of this one is good and I like the way it holds As you can see, the skeins are very small and a tremendous amount of yarn in necessary To give you an idea, I am already through 24 skeins of this yarn, which retails for $80, in order to make a twin bed. It just took me a while to order another six The whole thing cost me $100 when the time's up. You have £100! In the event I had bought another brand/type of yarn, the cost would have been In my opinion, the finished product will look rich, unique, and superior to anything else out there.

The yarn has a pleasant feel and is of high quality
4/5

There is a tendency for the piece to split into separate strands quite a bit. You can make a large, dense crochet throw by following these steps. There is nothing I like better than the look and feel of this yarn, and the price is excellent! My only complaint is that I have to undo/redo quite a bit because the yarn keeps snagging my hook when it tries to go into the smaller strands. In larger gauge yarns, I think that might be more common than I think. I will conclude by saying this. My sentiments would not change if I were to do it over again, I would still buy it again and if I was able I would give it a The star rating is 7.
