(3 Pack) Lion Brand Yarn Truboo Yarn, Mushroom

My favorite yarn to crochet with!

Silky soft fine yarn. Lovely glide & beautiful mint color.

I found this yarn on Amazon after I looked for it all over the place. Funny thing, even the Lion Brand website didn’t have this color, BUT Amazon was able to get this color….from Lion Brand!!Strangely weird!! But was happy to be able to get itThanks, Amazon

Love this lightweight bamboo yarn.

This yarn is extremely splitty, but most cotton and viscose/rayon yarns are, so that was expected! Otherwise, it is extremely soft. It tends to pill a bit/get fuzzy and also is quite stretchy with very little recovery. I do not suggest this yarn for a structured garment or anything with negative ease, because it WILL stretch (I discovered this after knitting a tnak top in this yarn that slowly began to fall off my body by end of day).It is lovely for a loose garment for the summer, however, and I've made around 3 lace sweaters for the summer with it before. This was my third time using this yarn and I will definitely buy it again, because for the price, it is an extremely nice bamboo yarn.As a last note, whenever I use this yarn, I sew elastic thread into the collar and it works wonderfully to avoid stretching permanently at the neckline - I do this with my 100% cotton sweaters too and rlly recommend this technique to get the most out of these yarns!

Wonderful, so soft and easy to work with I am crocheting a long jacket so this yarn is perfect

It’s always a risk when buying strictly for the color you see on your screen but that’s a risk one takes when buying off the internet. I would definitely not call this Lilac but it is certainly a lovely shade of silver and when the light hits it just right, it becomes a light silvery blue. If you are buying with hopes that this is a lavender lilac color, it is not. It’s a beautiful quality and a lovely soft textured yarn though and I do want to order more to make a bigger blanket! Something else I do love about this yarn is the lightness of the weight. It’s not heavy at all and will make a beautiful lightweight blanket for my babies this summer. Acrylic yarn tends to be heavier, more stiff, a bit course, and certainly warmer but this is a silky, soft, cotton-esque texture and so beautiful!

Now I'll admit I didnt pay enough attention to the yarn size in the description when I bought it I just saw the color and thought," This is the shade I need for the project I have in mind!!" Then proceeded to buy what I thought I would need based on the yardage alone ( yes I realize now how terrible of an idea that was.)Luckily for me after swatching and checking the gauge I should still have enough for my project.The yarn is on the smaller side, but that is already in the description. It's SOFT. The fabric you end up making when knitting especially is so nice and drapey and the color gives off this light sheen that is just So NICE. I'll definitely be buying this again.
