Touch of Linen Yarn, Terracotta

Crocheting Excellent for shopping totes

I love this yarn. The color is beautiful and I'm making a light sweater with it. It does split, but if you're careful, you wont regret purchasing it.

This yarn is perfect! Bought it to crochet some clothes, and it has been working awesomely. The yarn is super smooth and won't be rough or too textured, and crocheting with it is so easy and your hook just glides through. I definitely recommend this brand and yarn!

Yarn has beautiful drape for baby blankets and scarves. Has a tendency to split. Disappointed that this is made in China. Will not buy again for that 1 reason.

Had to order a few skeins of this yarn when they only had two available at my local store and nothing online. It was for sure pricier here but I scooped em up anyway because it really is a very nice yarn. Its soft, light, has a great drape, easy to work with, and the color is amazing. The only thing I absolutely HATE, is that there were a ridiculous number of yarn breaks in each skein (spots where the yarn cuts off and is tied to more yarn) Because the yarn is SO thin these breaks are very noticable in the finished work. I used the magic knot join to minimize this as much as possible, but, either because the yarn is so thin or because it's so soft and sleek, one of the joins came undone during the blocking process. I had to completely unravel my finished scarf (4 skeins worth in total) and start again from the beginning, a project that took me about a month to finish. Now I'm using the Russian Join, which is significantly more noticeable, but more secure. So, if you like the yarn, absolutely buy it. If you're working with more of a pattern and not stockinette like I am then it should be easier to disguise any joins you have to make. I'm certainly not going to send it back or give up on the project, but I feel like it's kind of a D move to have three breaks or more in a single skein of yarn of this weight, so, 3/5, recommend with caution.

I wanted to mention 2 things about this yarn: #1 this is the same price (5.99 USD) you would pay both at the manufacturer website and a few other online yarn retailers that carry it #2 The color "cove" is more green than blue in person Overall this is a useable, affordable yarn.

Not what I expected

It worked beautifully for dying, and I'm really enjoying working it up into a summer top for myself.
