Vibrant Color and Perfect Texture for Garlands and Crafts!
The media could not be loaded. I’m so happy with this Lion Brand Hometown Yarn in Pittsburgh Yellow. The bright, warm color adds such a beautiful pop to my paper garlands and craft projects. The super-bulky weight makes it easy to handle and ties nicely without fraying or splitting. It’s exactly what I need to create high-quality, eye-catching decorations. Highly recommend for anyone making handmade garlands or other craft decor!

Great yarn
One of my favor yarns. It feels nice in my hands while I’m working, creates soft and warm garments and blankets that hold their shape well.

Lovely yarn
This is such a pretty color. It has a nice texture. It works up nicely. However it does come untwined a bit occasionally as you work, and any cut end will begin to fray. Not sure yet about how it washes. Still working up my squares for kiddos blankets. But love this colorway, and loving this line of yarn. I was able to find a few more color variations in some local stores that work with my kiddos color requests. Each one so far is super soft, a lovely bulky yarn that is still pretty light. Hopefully not too hot once it's all together for their blankets. 😁

Great yarn to create a Weighted Blanket! Great colors! Soft and Silky!
I love this yarn. So soft and silky and heavy weight. And the colors are beautiful...really more than I expected. Using a single crochet, I made a generously sized blanket for a full sized bed. What I accidentally created was a weighted blanket. The thing weighs a ton! I use it on my bed and I've never slept so well. It is very warm...on warmer nights it's too warm so I turn on a fan because I love it so much. It is nearly the perfect blanket yarn for me... Save one thing!IT SHEDS MORE THAN A LARGE DOG IN THE SUMMER!!!And on this point I do not exaggerate! I have washed it according to instructions, rolled it with a lint roller/brush, and done everything I could to minimize the issue to no avail. Actually the shedding began while I was in the early phase of the project and just got worse. My final solution was to pillowcase it between 2 old sheets, and that has minimized the issue. I must emphasize this one point....I love all other things about this yarn and the blanket I created (so much I made one for my daughter who loves it enough to put up with the shedding) with it to over look the insane amount of shedding. Please trust me on the shedding. Other than that one flaw, I would give this yarn an absolute 5 stars!

Love it
This yarn is quite nice. It’s soft, a touch shiny and fairly easy to work with. The strands do separate some when crocheting but not a big issue. Each skein is 64 yards so these are not big skeins. I’m making a crocheted basket and using 10.5/K hook which works perfectly for the thickness. I’d order again.

Just as described
The yarn is even prettier than it appeared on line. Looking forward to starting the sweater soon.

Vibrant and soft
Love this vibrant pink and the feel of this yarn. Used it to make a blanket for my fiance and he appreciates the softness and durability of this yarn. This line of yarn from Lion Brand is my go-to for most projects!

Great color
The yarn has great color and slip. Knits easily on metal needles. The quality isn't bad for what it is.
