Lion Brand Yarn (1 Skein) Vanna's Choice Yarn, Linen | Everyday Basic Worsted Weight Acrylic Knit & Crochet Fiber for Blankets, Bags, Sweaters, Hats, Scarves

Colors are very off. I ordered asparagus thinking it was going to be a variation of green. Turns out it can be beige....very pale yellow or pale green depending on light. it is not a soft yarn. easy to knit with.

Nice and soft and a good weight.

Love this yarn! Silky and easy to use!

First of all, I love Vanna's Choice yarns. I purchased this colonial blue yarn specifically because of the band on the ball in the Ad. It's the old, or original, band that this yarn had so I thought it would also be the original yarn. Unfortunately the yarn that I received has the newer band on it. Fyi... even though the description states it's 860 109, it is actually 860 109E. The lot number is also different. Too some people that doesnt mean anything, but as a knitter, or crocheter that subtle difference is a lot if you are joining in a project such as a hat or sweater. The 109E is a slightly darker blue than the 109. Fortunately I am doing amigurumi so this yarn will still work for me. I would absolutely buy from this seller again. The only reason I gave it 4, instead of 5, stars is because they should update the picture, and description to reflect the yarn a buyer actually receives so there is no disappointment. Only a person who works with yarns would understand that frustration.

This product was not as soft to crochet as other Lion Brand-Vanna's Choice yarns have been in the past. As a medium weight yarn it was difficult to obtain the soft texture that I was used to in the past. As a result, when I did a test sample, it turned out like it was more for a rug than a blanket. It also did not have the traditional Lion Brand Wrapper around each skein of yarn.
