Yonkey Monkey10-Pack of 500 Grams Yarn - 70% Rayon derived from Bamboo, 30% Cotton - Imported - Berry 9032

Beautiful colours and so incredibly soft, the best yarn I've found for baby items. It washes like a dream with very little shrinkage and the dyes do not run or bleed or fade.

This is a beautiful shiny bamboo silk blend. The colors are vivid and the yarn is well captured in the photos posted in the store, especially the blow out of the 6-ply strands of the yarn. When I ordered the yarn, I looked at the needle gauge and somehow assumed that I was seeing the crochet hook range. So far I prefer using a 3.0 or 3.5 mm hook with this yarn, which puts it in the weight 2 category, rather than DK which is what I had originally intended to purchase. Working in a finer gauge is hardly a complaint.If you really must, it is alright with a 4.0 mm crochet hook, but the stitches have a non opaque structure regardless of stitch used. The yarn is soft yet very resistant to fray. It will untwine which is a challenge if you are a complete beginner, but it is actually a great yarn to use if you are working on your first project at a finer yarn gauge. It is not the yarn to use in your very first project. (If you are a complete beginner, I would recommend a worsted weight yarn or higher - weight 4 and doing an amigurumi project for crochet.). Otherwise, the qualities of the fiber blend (easy care, soft, bright colors), as well as the relative pricing are a lot to love. I will hug the Monkey Plush friend if I ever have the good fortune to meet one in person.

I made a lacy cardigan out off this yarn that is pretty long (few inches above the knee), with a little yarn left over. Loved it. I've worn it a lot and even got a request to make one for this stranger. The yarn is very soft and cozy.

Great yarn for the price. Very thin though but soft

Beautiful yarn but too fine for knitting.
