LilySugar'N Cream Cones Sonoma Yarn - 1 Pack of 400g/14oz - Cotton - 4 Medium - Knitting/Crochet

I think Lily's Sugar 'n Cream all-cotton yarn is a workhorse in the kitchen. I crochet and knit with it to make hot pads, dish cloths, and dish towels. This is a worsted weight (#4) yarn and it knits or crochets to a dense fabric. I find the items shrink up when washed and dried. I use a little bleach on my dish cloths, and the color will fade a bit when I do. I prefer buying it in the cones for ease of use and just the greater amount of yarn; although it should be noted it is not necessarily knot free; in the Sage I came across a neat knot. Had I been making a dishcloth, I would have finished it before I came to it; it appeared about midway through my knitting a dish towel. The photo shows a folded dish towel I made with Woodland Trails and just beneath it is the dish towel in Sage. The greens do not match in the two towels but both are pretty. This yarn is soft enough to work but I know it washes up rather stiff without fabric softener. I do not recommend this for clothing and it would make a very heavy blanket so I really don't recommend it for that either unless that is what you want. But for household items: kitchen cloths, mats, hot pads, tote bags, maybe hats, etc. it is an excellent choice in cotton yarn. The Woodland Trails label said it was U.S. grown cotton and the yarn was made in Canada. For comparison I think Lion Brand 24/7 cotton (which I would use for garments instead of the Lily Sugar 'n Cream) is lighter in weight than the Sugar 'n Cream) even though both say they are #4. Both nice products, but for hearty or dense items, I think Lily Sugar 'n Cream is the best choice and a good value.

This yarn was easy to crochet with. Definitely worth the purchase. Currently making summer garments like shorts and bralettes! It’s soft and comfortable to wear. I have also made some dish cloths and wash cloths with this! Love it, and will be purchasing more!

I have gotten this product at a lesser cost but this was the only grey I could find so paid the extra cost to get the color I needed. Not disappointed in the quality. I really like this brand.

I absolutely love this stuff on my kitchen pot holders hot pads coasters anything you can think of actually that you want to absorb it's great stuff and then when you wash it it gets softer

I like having a larger quantity of this yarn. It’s very convenient and good quality.

So pretty!!!

Not a better way to purchase yarn needed

como se describe. buen producto

I have made close to 100 dishcloths to give to friends

At first I thought it was going to be stringlike. Turned out to be very soft cotton

Easy for crocheting

Bonne qualité

I absolutely love the colours, they are just beautiful.
