So my mom and the woman in charge of our local senior center go way back (my mom was a volunteer when I was a kid and did Meals on Wheels, and I'd stay there when I was out of school). My mom will also give food to the senior center for them to cook.

My sister came in earlier with a large plastic bag of yarn and said that they had sent it to me. 💜🧶 I'm trying to identify it and I see Bernat (some skeins still have the labels lol) and there's gorgeous blue and white chenille #6 yarn and I would love to know if there's a way to identify it or see if it's been discontinued.

The rest looks like #4.

I'm going to pore over Yarnspirations to find out but this one burgundy color looks Lion Brand to me (but it feels larger lol).

I'm currently taking a course in Business Communications, and I need to write a business report. I'm trying to write this on crochet and knitting, and it would be most helpful if I could ask the group to fill out a short survey. It won't take long, but I can use it as primary evidence in the report.

Thank you,

I guess that I am going to have to put yarn and possible project together. I ordered this yarn for a bag I believe. Now that the yarn is here I can't for the life of me remember which bag pattern. I save the patterns and pictures on my phone. Hopefully that will work. Open to any ideas that may be helpful 💡.

Thanks 😊

Hello, many years ago a friend gave me two skeins of this lovely yarn. It did not come with any kind of Maker's tag. I believe it's some kind of synthetic, I've done a burn test and it smells like burning plastic and it melts or burns fully with a black charred end instead of producing ash. It seems to be fingering weight, the piece shown in the image is knitted on 3.5mm circular needles.

I would love help trying to find another yarn that is similar to this to add to the project because I'm not sure I have enough. I'm trying to make a sleeveless top. I don't currently have a proper pattern, I was just knitting with it to see how it behaved before I start the real project. Ideally I would love to know if anyone else out there has seen this color pattern and type of yarn before and knows what brand it is.

Hi! I'm new to knitting and have crocheted a bit in the past. I'm trying to recreate my favorite cardigan that got damaged and can't be found anywhere online. It was made with a particularly soft almost velvet like fabric, and I've been on the hunt for yarn that has the same feel/texture. I finally found something similar and I'm excited to try my hand at making a cardigan!

My question is, can I reasonably make a cardigan with Loops & Threads Cuddle Craft Velvet? I know it's not intended for clothing but it's the closest to what my cardigan feels like. If not, any recommendations? Any help is appreciated :)

ETA: I'm mostly trying to ID this because I want to make a top out of it, but I get eczema triggered by synthetic fibers. So I don't want to use it for a shirt unless it's 100% cotton. I know how similar Hobbii's Sultan yarns are, but I'm not looking to buy more right now, I'm trying to ID the fiber.

I know for sure that I bought this yarn at Joann Fabrics (rip) in late 2017-early 2018. It's a 4 ply, very loose twist that unravels easily, and the ombre comes from changing the color of one strand at a time within the ply. It gets about 14 WPI which indicates a fingering weight. I'm not great at judging the fiber content by touch, but I'm guessing it's cotton or a cotton blend.

(This is no longer the original cake - I had used several yards from both ends and decided to frog that project, so I ended up re-winding the entire cake with my home winder. But it did come in a cake that showed off the ombre and could easily be used from either end.)

I bought this yarn at a spotlight in Sydney in approximately 2021/2022. I am trying to work out what it is. I haven't been able to try the burn test yet, I'll give it a go tomorrow morning. Anyone happen to recognise it?
