CONS

  • Synthetic composition lacks the thermal regulation and breathability of natural fibers
  • Prone to surface pilling over time compared to anti-pilling treated acrylics

Full Review

The color transitions are incredibly smooth and don't result in 'pooling' issues.

Surprisingly soft for a 100% acrylic yarn; it didn't split at all while crocheting.

Perfect for baby blankets because it washes and dries beautifully without losing its shape.
