Yarn reviews
My own reviews of yarns I've crocheted with: what they feel like, what I made, and what they cost per yard, plus what other crocheters report.
Loops & Threads Petite Purl
A super-soft skinny chenille from Michaels that I love for scarves, gloves and sweaters.
Big Twist Value
The durable, budget-friendly worsted that got me hooked on crochet, now sold at Michaels.
Caron Cloud Cakes Perfect Phasing
A soft gradient yarn cake that I used for a blanket in Fir and Lagoon.
