Universal Yarns Bamboo Pop Yarn - 211 Frosty Morning

This yarn is fabulous! It is soft in the hand and so comfy to wear! Great drape and stitch definition. I'm working on my 3rd sweater in it now (broken rib stitch on US 5s.) I did have 1 ball with 3 knots and a couple that had 1 knot, but most have been knot free. The yarn does tend to split so I would not recommend it for beginners or anyone who hates knitting with yarns that split. When I cast off my Sage sweater, I expect I'll be casting on my Bamboo Pop Sweater #4.

I used this yarn to knit two baby hats. The yarn is so soft and smooth. Easy to work with. They turned out adorable.

I know it is pricey, but what a joy to work with, and soft, silkey, with great stitch definition ! I especially love the variegated colors. I added a pineapple lace skirt to a tank top for myself, and it looks and wears great even without blocking!! The lack of patterns has inspired me to start designing my own.

Works up easily

Just finished weaving four scarves with this yarn for four of my daughters who insisted they wanted one after they saw the first one come off the loom. The texture is so soft and the drape is beautiful. Beadsandyarn were promt to fulfill my order and it arrived before the estimated arrival date!

When I use this with a normal crochet hook and SC stitches I have a hard time keeping the individual strands together. But making dish rags on a Tunisian hook and basic Tunisian stitch I have no problems with splitting at all. I'm using a 6.5mm Tunisian hook so that the dish rag doesn't curl and also so that the weave is loose for air circulation while the rag dries. I've been using my first dish rag for five days and it has zero stink. When I make dish rags from worsted weight all cotton yarn the rag stays damp too long and starts to smell.

This was a great experience. I got exactly what I expected wrapped in a very nice way and it arrived on time.

I have been making beanies for my daughter since she had chemo. Typical beanies get hot but the bamboo yarn is cooler and more comfortable for her.
