Bernat Maker Hyacinth Yarn - 2 Pack of 250g/8.8oz - 72% Cotton 28% Nylon - #5 Bulky - 290m/317Yards - for Knitting, Crochet and Amigurumi

This yarn was used for a kitchen towel holder project I crocheted. It is soft, strong, durable, and easy to work with. I highly recommend it.

This is soft and quite nice to crochet. No drag at all and it has just a little stretch to make this one of the most pleasant yarns I have worked with. I use it to make bags and as you can see in the picture it has beautiful definition and detail. If Bernat is smart they would keep this around and add more colors. Yes it is expensive but sometimes it is worth it to get the correct outcome. Beginners this is your yarn. To get it closer together just drop your hook down. In this picture I am using a 3.5mm, though a 4mm might have worked as well. I definitely recommend this yarn. The yarn itself is great to work with. Soft with slight stretch. I have not come across any knots yet. Super easy to use and working with. You will enjoy working with. So far I have used cream, jam and the lavender color. Here are pictures of the Jam color bag and the lavender one.

I purchased this yarn because I needed a medium gray tube/beginner yarn for some amigurumi crochet projects. It works well and comes in a variety of colors not found in other beginner yarns. It is a good weight, soft, and does not split. The only drawback is the two-pack of large skeins vs. medium and small skeins for competitors’ yarns.

The quality is too notch. This algodon cotton and nylon blend presents flexibility with the yarn allowing for a multitude of creative projects like a shopping bag, blanket, craft cushion mats etc. Price point was absolutely affordable considering I got a deal for skeins. The softness was exactly what I was looking for a cushioned mat for myself for when I crochet at my wood table. One skein is 317 yards which is amazing and such a great deal. I absolutely recommend this yarn by Bernat! Love the company!

Great yarn!!! Little expensive but it's magical

This is an absolute joy to work with! It is a tubular yarn, giving it a really nice density. I loved it so much that I took a pattern for a small throw and turned it into a blanket for my king sized bed. It’s the perfect weight to add an extra layer on your bed, heavy enough to know it’s there without weighing you down too much. This yarn has great stretch and beautiful stitch definition. The colors are also lovely and rich. I haven’t washed it yet, but will amend this review when I do. I highly recommend this yarn.

It's a fine yarn, but was not what I needed. I was looking for tubular yarn that I could double strand to make a thick yarn for a basket. This is still very thin and not sturdy even when doubled. Bernat stopped making bernat big plush and I was hoping this could be a replacement. But alas, tis not a valid option. Back to the drawing board.

I love it true to color very nice to work with. Great for beginners
