It’s intended to have a different texture and is much more durable than conventional cotton yarn without the loss of a nice feel. The feel and look of a higher quality is obvious once you touch a finished piece. Yes, the yarn feels different than standard yarn. It’s supposed to. It’s processed differently for a reason. This particular yarn is perfect for any project that will be used or handled frequently. It is stronger, doesn’t produce heavy lint, doesn’t get fuzzy or pill up, doesn’t split easily, and is more resistant to mildew. It holds its shape better than regular cotton yarn, and withstands many many washes and tumble dries on a medium heat setting. (Don’t use bleach or fabric softener.) I disagree with the reviews that call it “thread” or dk weight. Not true. Yes, there is a dk version of this brand, but it clearly says dk on the front part of the label. The thickness is comparable of an identical piece stitched with standard cotton yarn. The yarn swatches up just as noted on the label: Crochet Gauge (4in x 4in) 14 single crochets x 19 rows using a G-6 (4 mm) crochet hook Knit Gauge (4in x 4in) 20 stitches x 28 rows using #6 (4 mm) knitting needles Photo 1: My current 24/7 yarn stash is from in-store and desertcart purchases over a several month time span. The overall quality and color of yarn is consistent across the board, regardless of where it was purchased from. This stash is ever changing because of the volume of crocheting I do in my spare time. Photo 2: I use a LOT of this yarn to make simple dishcloths/washcloths for charity fundraisers in our local area. They are a hot commodity because of the durability and how they hold their vibrant color for a long time. Definitely better than any store bought dishcloth/washcloth. Honestly, I can’t make them fast enough. If you’re unsure about Lion Brand’s 24/7 cotton yarn or if you’re unfamiliar with mercerized cotton, try a skein. Don’t judge the yarn until you’ve finished the project. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. This is my honest opinion from my personal experience with this product. I purchase all items at the posted price and do not receive any product or incentive for providing a review. Review: Lovely, beautiful, exactly what I expected! - Used to crochet flowers for my friends. Beautiful color, the center is not tangled when you pull the center strand out, but make sure you use a small hook as it is a thinner yarn. Not really suitable for warm projects, more for cutesy things. High quality yarn, good value, make some pretty projects! ## Features - COTTON YARN FOR EVERYDAY MAKES: 24/7 Cotton is a smooth, 100% cotton yarn available in a wide range of vibrant, lasting colors. Ideal for crochet and knit kitchen sets, reusable bags, summer hats, and home décor projects that need clean stitches and durability. - GENEROUS SKEIN, PREMIUM FINISH: Each ball includes 185 yd (170 m) and 3.5 oz (100 g), offering more yardage than comparable cotton yarns. The mercerized finish delivers excellent stitch definition with a subtle sheen, making it a great choice for amigurumis. - EASY-CARE CROCHET YARN: Mercerization strengthens the cotton fibers, improves color vibrancy, and creates a smoother feel that resists splitting all day long. Machine wash and dry for easy care projects that hold their shape and stand up to frequent use. - LIGHT WORSTED WEIGHT COTTON FOR KNITTING: Runs slightly thinner than standard worsted for refined results. Crochet gauge is 14 sc x 19 r on G-6 (4 mm) and knit gauge is 20 sts x 28 r on #6 (4 mm), both producing a true 4 x 4 in swatch. - FROM LION BRAND: A trusted cotton yarn brand for knitters and crocheters who expect consistent, quality results. Order in 3 packs to ensure matching dye lots for larger projects like sweaters and blankets. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B017T97ABG | | Best Sellers Rank | #503 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #12 in Yarn | | Brand | Lion Brand Yarn | | Brand Name | Lion Brand Yarn | | Color | Red | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 17,642 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00023032015941 | | Item Length | 185 Yards | | Item Thickness | 0.25 Inches | | Item Type Name | yarn | | Item Weight | 3.5 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Lion Brand Yarn | | Material | Cotton | | Material Composition | 100% Mercerized Cotton | | Material Type | Cotton | | Product Care Instructions | Machine Wash | | UPC | 023032015941 | | Unit Count | 558.0 Feet | | Warranty Description | No Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Lion Brand Yarn - **Color:** Red - **Compatible Knitting Needle US Size:** 6 - **Item Length:** 185 Yards - **Item Thickness:** 0.25 Inches - **Item Weight:** 3.5 Ounces - **Material:** Cotton - **Material Composition:** 100% Mercerized Cotton - **Product Care Instructions:** Machine Wash - **UPC:** 023032015941 ## Images ![Lion Brand Yarn, 24/7 Cotton Yarn, Red, 1 Pack - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71DJbRXosfL.jpg) ![Lion Brand Yarn, 24/7 Cotton Yarn, Red, 1 Pack - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61CeEybm5EL.jpg) ![Lion Brand Yarn, 24/7 Cotton Yarn, Red, 1 Pack - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61SDo55BhiL.jpg) ![Lion Brand Yarn, 24/7 Cotton Yarn, Red, 1 Pack - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qyaEUjLdL.jpg) ![Lion Brand Yarn, 24/7 Cotton Yarn, Red, 1 Pack - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ctIJbF-dL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many yards is in each skein?** A: The label says 186 yards. **Q: What weight is this yarn?** A: It says it is a 4 (medium) , but I would consider it more like a sport weight. It is fantastic to crochet with! **Q: Approximately How many skeins to make an Afghan?** A: A lot. This is really good yarn but it isn’t meant for making Afghans. It is very thin. I just used three skins to make a purse. So I guess you need at least 20 to make an Afghan. Hope this helps. **Q: What is the yardage per skein?** A: 186 yards per skein of 24/7 cotton ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Consistently Great Quality *by A***E on August 19, 2023* This is 100% (mercerized) 4/medium worsted cotton.

Not really suitable for warm projects, more for cutesy things. High quality yarn, good value, make some pretty projects! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Yarn! *by A***E on April 1, 2026* I absolutely LOVE this yarn! I practiced crochet with off-brand “Easy Peasy” yarn, so I was nervous about working with “real” yarn. To my pleasant surprise, this yarn was a breeze to work with! The yarn is thinner than I anticipated, but that’s not a bad thing. It’s soft, sturdy, beautiful, and doesn’t split. I strongly recommend it! Pictured is a little bag that I made with this wonderful yarn. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton Yarn, Lightweight Yarn for Knitting, Crocheting, and Crafts, Red, 1 Pack - 2 mm Crochet Hook, Ergonomic Handle for Arthritic Hands, Extra Long  Knitting Needles for Beginners and Crocheting Yarn (2 mm) - Hekisn Large-Eye Blunt Needles, Stainless Steel Yarn Knitting Needles, Sewing Needles, Crafting Knitting Weaving Stringing Needles,Perfect for Finishing Off Crochet Projects (9 Pieces) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/30920200-lion-brand-yarn-24-7-cotton-yarn-red-1-pack](https://www.desertcart.us/products/30920200-lion-brand-yarn-24-7-cotton-yarn-red-1-pack) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-04*
