Lion Brand Yarn Heartland Yarn, Worsted-Weight Yarn for Knitting, Crocheting, and Crafting, 1 Pack, White Sands

This yarn is good value. It is easy yo work with although it splits easily. The end result is a comfortable garment.

This yarn is a beautiful color and is soft and easy to knit with! I will be ordering more as needed. Thank you!

I purchased a number of colors of this yarn but did my test scarf in Cuyahoga Valley. It is a lovely deep teal color with touches of lighter teal running throughout. The overall effect is one of a very subtle tweed.The skein is 251 yards for five ounces of acrylic yarn. It states that it is a worsted weight 4. I've seen a lot of variance in worsted weight yarns and I would certainly call this one a lighter worsted weight. The skein suggest a J 10 (6mm) hook but I found that an H (5mm) worked best for me.I always test a new yarn by crocheting a standard scarf. That gives me the opportunity to experience the feel of the yarn and to compare it against other yarns that I have likewise tested. I use a half-double crochet as it gives a good body to the material and still leaves it soft enough for comfort.For this scarf, as I had a lot of yardage, I choose to do a chain 14 (two for a turning chain), turn, half double crochet in 12, chain two turn, and repeat until the scarf was 72 inches long. In most worsted weight scarves, my scarf is around 4 inches wide. With this yarn, it ended up 3 inches wide by 72 inches long with a considerable amount of yarn left over (which I could and may use to make a fringe for the scarf.)I liked the way the yarn felt in my hand. It was smooth and silky and the yarn pulled easily from the center. I didn't have any knots but I did have three spots where the yarn appeared slightly frayed. Those spots end well within my crochet but would have been apparent if I had knit with the skein. Because of the fraying, I would give this yarn a 4.5 stars if it were possible. As it is not, I round up (as always) to a 5.I like the yarn a lot and will be making a number of projects using it. I had hoped for a full worsted weight yarn for some Celtic-inspired projects but I don't think it is quite thick enough.

I am so in love with the Lion Brand yarns.....My Sentro 48 needles machine loves this yarn...NO dropped stitches. I whipped these hats up real quick. I'm knitting for charity and want to make alot. This will get me there. The Lion Brand Jeans yarn is great too!

I'm making a 2024 temperature blanket using only Heartland colors and I love the way they look together. It makes a nice thick weave without being too stiff. The washability factor of acrylic is a huge bonus.The only drawback is that it splits pretty easily. I am making tight stitches so it feels even more challenging because i frequently miss strands. But i like the colors and the end result too much to stop using it,

Nice soft material but firm, makes nice crochet caps.

I have not used this brand before but they had the color I was looking for.I am making an afghan for a new sofa, and this yarn is perfect for that. It is not too heavy and it is very soft. I would love to have a sweater made with this. Something to consider?

i bought this yarn in order to crochet a scarf. I enjoy how soft it is and the color of it. Whenever anyone touches the yarn they are amazed at the softness of it. It's also quite easy to crochet with but sometimes instead of crocheting the entire yarn I stab the middle of it so just be careful of that. Otherwise the yarn is warm which has saved me multiple times in the 32 degree weather. I would recommend.

Me gusta lion brand ,pero esta segunda bola está saliendo con muchos tramos deshilachados y eso hace que se vea desprolijo el tejido, en este punto no sé si debería seguir con el tejido 🧶 ya está al 50%. Es una pena que el producto venga con tanto defecto
