Perfect baby blanket yarn
Tina H✓ Verified Purchase•December 22, 2023
This was my first try with bamboo and I doubt I will ever use anything else again. For years I have made baby blankets for each grandchild, and the latest one got the first bamboo blanket. Now all the kids and their moms want one just like it because it so soft and lightweight. One of my daughters asked me to make one for her in King size! Now that would be quite a project! The yarn can be doubled for a faster or larger project and is still very soft and workable, so maybe I will try that.
The yarn takes a minute to get used to, but really works up well. The second baby blanket I made took a lot less time and was probably done in less than 2 weeks. It really is soft and has a very lovely feel. Although others have recommended a smaller needle, I used a 5.5 crochet needle and thought it came out perfect. Made the first couple of rows a little harder to keep consistent, but after that it was a breeze.
Really, really love this yarn. Have bought it in almost every color they make for various and future projects.

Velvety Soft Yonkey Monkey

What a delight is this yarn! It is thin, but not fingering thin, at all. The best size of crochet hook is 3.5 mm but it can handle a 3mm-4mm hooks, too. It is very loosely spun, needles can split it easily, so choose a deeper throat crochet hook to avoid the annoyance. For this reason, this is not for beginners, but for more advanced yarn artists this yarn can be a delight to both work with and wear the finished work.
The quantity for the money is great! I've crocheted a pullover with 3/4 sleeve, using a 3.5mm hook, using just a little bit more than 5 skeins. My finished pullover feels unexpectedly velvety for the touch, and has beautiful drape.
Why is the star deduction? Some skeins, not all, but more than one, had frequently knotted parts - sometimes as frequent as every 2 feet. After ordering 2 bags, I went ahead and ordered more right away. I recommend this yarn for all who likes their finished projects look and feel of a higher quality.

Excellent for Weaving, But With Caveats

I'm a weaver, not a knitter. The yarn was thin, as other reviewers said, so I doubled up on both warp and weft. The finished product (baby blanket) washed well and was incredibly soft. It drapes beautifully and I really love the feel of it.
This yarn was strong enough to hold up to the pressure of the warp, but 2 of the 10 skeins had been pieced together with short ends. There were multiple knots, rendering those skeins nearly useless - knotted yarn, especially a really smooth one like this, comes apart on the loom. And nothing is a bigger disaster in weaving than broken warp threads.
I was able to use some of the pieced-together yarn as weft for a pillow I was making for myself; i can tolerate the slubs and bumps of the many knots. But i would never use those for an item I was giving as a gift.
Even so, the finished blankets made with the intact skeins were a big hit with babies and new parents alike. I'm ordering more because I love the color, the texture and results from this yarn, and am hoping I get fewer defects.

Yarn-5; Color-2

The yarn itself is exactly as advertised. Zero complaints in feel, did jot split when I tolled it between my fingers. The color is not what I wanted, though. I understand dye lots and variation, but this is pink. I expected a more orange-shaded pink if it's advertised as "peach". This won't stop me from buying this yarn again, but I'll be sure to get a more basic color.
