Lily Sugar'n Cream Cotton Cone Yarn, 14 oz, Key Lime Pie Ombre, 1 Cone

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 makes excellent knitted dish cloths. Yarn is soft and washs and dries great.

Love the color, this was used for Dishcloths, and a Market bag. Thickness is good but for a market bag I added another solid green for sturdiness. I like this because my bag is washable. Very easy to use and is very versatile in many projects.

Quality cotton yarn that works well for dish towels and potholders.

The Lily - 10300202612 Sugar'n Cream Cotton Cone Yarn was needed to fulfill a kindergarten school list. I needed 400 yards in a round. It is difficult to purchase yarn in 400 yards, so this will do the trick. The remaining can be used for future dishcloths and other around the house items. It is a good thickness, very cottony soft, the size I needed, is easy to stitch with, and the color is beautiful.

I was very disappointed in this young. I had two others that were perfect, but this one the eye keep splitting and trying to knit. We’ll go back for Moron, but not that one.

This is one of my favorite yarns to crochet with. I love cotton yarn to begin with and like ones that have a variety of colors in them but I really like this one that starts with one basic color and then throws flecks of a few more colors here and there randomly. I'm making a blanket for my daughter. I picked this color because it has a shade of green/blue in it that matches her couch. I think so far it's looking great. I'm on my second cone and I think two cones will be enough for a throw size blanket. If you want it to be a bigger one probably 3 cones. I am making this on the smaller side. About 42" long. I might make it about square. I love working with these cones because I do not have to worry about tying yarn together. I hate doing it and always worry it's going to come apart so the less I have to do it in the project the better. The cones are easy to work with. I used to unwind the yarn from the outside but this last cone I realized by accident that if you remove the cardboard cone form that you can work from the inside of the cone upside down and the yarn pulls out effortlessly. I did not have any problems with it getting tangled. I'm going to do this from now on. I'm very happy with this yarn and the price makes it a great value too. Thanks for reading my review Becky Brooks

Works well for hot pads and pot holders.

Das Garn bekommt die Note 1. Kein Knoten ueber mehr als 600 Meter hinweg. 4faedig, gut zu verarbeiten. Habe Badematte gehaekelt.

Really enjoying knitting with this yarn, nice & strong but soft makes lovely dish cloths & I like the added bit of colour.

Perfekt garn för virkning! Det bästa på marknaden om du vill virka corsett toppar eller shrugs som behöver vara stiffare

Beautiful colour, easy to work with and feels nice when worn.

lo compre por los colores y tejido quedan genial. es facil de trabajar y resulta que da mas que uno piensa...
