Bernat Blanket Bright Yarn, Pixie Pink

I love working with Bernat Blanket yarn! For some reason my Joanns doesnt carry this color, and the company website was out of stock. Lucky to find it here. This isnt the first time Ive had to get my yarn here because Joann was out of stock. The yarn is the same quality, but costs a little more. Still, saves me a trip to the store and saves me time not having to wait for a color to be back in stock.

Bought it for a project, could not find it locally in store. Nice quantity, excellent quality. Even throughout, worked up nicely.

Easy to use

I recently ordered eight 10.5 oz skeins of Sailors Delight at Amazons incredible add-on price. I plan on knitting a throw blanket and a triangle shawl with it, and Im just about finished with the shawl right now. Bernat Blanket yarn is the absolute best for blankets, shawls and throws. It is incredibly soft and does not shed or pill, as does other bulky acrylic yarns. The resulting article made from this yarn is similar to a fleece blanket or pullover. It is very warm. The only negatives that Ive come across with this particular shade (Sailors Delight) is an inconsistency in the density of the yarn and some fading of the variegated colors. My shawl uses two big balls, and the yarn from the first ball had a solid density and good color saturation. When I attached the second ball to my work and completed a couple of long rolls, I noticed that the yarn grew thinner and less dense, and the color saturation was more faded. Perhaps this particular ball was wound at the end of a manufacturing run, who knows. But because it was noticeably different, I unraveled the rows and changed out the ball for another one. Other than this issue, the yarn is perfect. In case anyone is wondering about how much to order for a simple garter knit triangle shawl (37 x 66), Ive completed a previous shawl using four 5.3 oz balls in Harvest and am finishing up my current project using two 10.5 oz balls in Sailors Delight. Hope this helps.

This is my favorite type of yarn with which to crochet. Ive used it for blankets, pillows, and cat toys so far. Honestly, if it didnt cost so much, it would make a great insulating curtain for windows in winter because it holds in heat so well.

This yarn is very soft and very thick.I bought one skein at local fabric store but didnt get enough to finish baby blanket. I was working too far from the store to go back and buy another so I ordered online. I was nervous about I being a different lot number and the colors not matching. But they matched perfectly, exactly what I wanted. I also bought a small dove grey skein to create a border. The label wasnt clear how many skeins I needed for a project, almost like there was some printing missing. It also wasnt clear what colors were included, so I winged it to match the dove grey. Luckily I picked out the right one and my friend loved the blanket. Id buy this again.

I used this yarn to make a baby blanket for a friend who is expecting. This yarn is very easy to work with, soft and light weight. I used 2 colors to make the blanket shown in the photos. The taupe color was used to make the “marching elephants” border around the edge. I have another baby blanket to make very soon, and there is no other choice for me except the Bernat Baby Blanket Big Ball yarn. The project came together quickly and I was very pleased with the results. Give it a try..... you will be “hooked” as well!

Very soft yarn. Easy to work with if you have a bigger hook to crochet! Perfect colors for my nephew as we are trying to be gender neutral.

I ordered two 2-packs. They arrived separately so I used the first 2-pack to start a blanket. The second 2-pack came and it feels like a lighter weight, less thick, and just lower quality in general. I’m going to finish the blanket with it because I don’t have much choice, but it is disappointing that one section of the blanket is so thick and high quality and the other section is not.

Good color Afghan
