Mellospun DK. VS Premier Basic DK

Softer and smaller than Premier DK.Not as fluffy or bulky as Premier. Makes slightly smaller projects. Good for Amigarumi animals and dolls. I like Mary Maxim Mellowspun better than Premier basic DK

My first order from Mary Maxim

My first order from Mary Maxim. I am using the Mellowspun dk Dove yarn for a waffle stitch throw. This yarn is easy to work with (I’m a beginner) and is so very soft. I can’t wait to cuddle with it. Ordering was super easy and I love the various discounts and sales.

This yarn is really soft and works up beautifully. I’ve made 6 blankets with it and the wash & dry great. I highly recommend it!

Nice for the price

Mellowspun material is soft & light. The project I crocheted ended up a bit thinner than I expected it to be, so the shape of the toddler sweater was a bit stretchy but it's ok. I would order again. I like the Denim color & looks lovely finished.

Color is way off!

I understand that colors may vary from dye lot to dye lot, but I ordered denim blue and got gray.
The label does say denim, but it doesn’t come close to the color on my previous order or the color shown on the website.

Best yarn!

This yarn is very beautiful and soft. I got the color Dark oak and made a beanie so far and have got so many compliments everywhere I go! I highly suggest it and I can't wait to get other colors! I look forward to making a blanket next!

Fell in Love with Mellowspun DK Yarn

This is the first time using this yarn and I love it! The yarn is so soft AFTER you are done making your project! It's so comfortable to wear and holds its shape beautifully!

Mellowspun

Mellowspun DK crochets up beautifully. It’s wonderful for throws and blankets. The yarn resists pilling, and is great for colorwork. It also runs through the washer nicely and blocks well for those who block their projects. It’s one of my favorite DK’s.

Online image does not match actual color

The color does not match the online image. The yarn I received is a much lighter shade. It will not work for the project I planned, but I like it and will try to use it for something else.

Perfect for a baby blanket

Chose this yarn for my second ever crochet project, first time ever making a baby blanket. The yarn arrived quicker than expected. It is so soft and easy to work with. The strands don’t unravel easily either. I’m very happy with my purchase. This is the first time I’ve purchased yarn from somewhere other than the big box craft stores, and I’m happy to say I plan to do so again!

This is fabulous yarn

I adore this yarn! It is so soft and so wonderful and works up just beautifully. The stitch definition is gorgeous. It stitches up so nicely and the drape is stunning and I will definitely be back to buy it again. I made a gorgeous baby blanket and intend to make another with this yarn! The quality is superb!

Soft and supple yarn

I bought dark navy in MM Mellowspun DK yarn.
I made Gumdrop Sweater created by MJ’s off the hook designs.
It turned out perfectly. The yarn is soft and supple. I had no problems while crocheting with this yarn. The yarn does stretch slightly, but not enough to be concerned with. Where I noticed it the most was around the neckline. So if that is a focal point for your item, you may want to make it a little tighter. I would definitely use this yarn again.
