Utopia Crafts Re-Cotton Knitting Yarn, 100g (Evergreen)

Fabulous colour and quality

I'm new to crochet and this is the first time I've used cotton.It's really lovely to work with it did split occasionally but overall it wasn't a problem. It's very soft and I like the range of colours. It feels very soft and yet firm enough for my bag to keep it's shapeIt's excellent value for money and I've already ordered more coloursVery happy with my purchase

Feelsnlike embroidary yarn.Silky and thin.Weird dark muted mint colour.Bad fornpom pom making. They just looked like straight lines lol

I was apprehensive about this yarn after reading some of the reviews, but I'm glad I purchased it. I have the Aqua colour just now and it is paler than the product photography, but it's lovely. Also as another reviewer mentioned, it is a little bit splitty, but I do find that with a lot of cotton yarns. I didn't find that a great hindrance. I have added a close up of my work and I think it crochet up nicely.It says on the band that it's eco friendly "aran," but in the item description aran is not mentioned, and attention should be paid to the item description which IS accurate. I am using a 4mm metal crochet hook. This will split the yarn less than a wooden or plastic one.

This crochet is cheap and good for the price.I have used this yarn for crocheting and latch hook and for both have struggled with how it easily frays and also is rather thin.I would not use for clothing or a blanket as rather rough.but does feel strong for a bag.For latch hook it is not the strongest and does come loose fairy easily. Although do love the end result with this yarn, as it frays so easily it makes the rug look fuller and softer.The colours though are gorgeous and for the price quite nice to use when you just want to crochet for no real purpose.

The media could not be loaded. GREAT QUALITY COTTON YARN FOR KNITTING AND CROCHET PROJECTS. I USED LARGE AND SMALL KNITTING NEEDLES AND THE SAME FOR CROCHET HOOKS. WORKS WELL ON CIRCULAR KNITTING NEEDLES TOO.A PLEASURE TO USE. NO GNARLY KNOTS TO INTERRUPT FLOW.FABULOUS!

I’m a crochet beginner (3 months in) and this yarn is perfect. Bad reviews say “it’s not wool” well obviously, the product name states it’s cotton…I double up the yarn (pull it out from the middle and the outside) and use a 5/5.5mm hook and was able to make gorgeous granny squares with ease. Yes acrylic yarn is easier to use but this yarn makes really strong items that won’t stretch.For the price it’s phenomenal and I’m about to buy more so I can make another bag!

Used for crochet. Did not realise it would split and was hard to work with. Probably just not used to it.
