2 different orders, 2 different thicknesses

I'm making a blanket for my step-mom and she loves the color of this yarn. My first order was in 2025. I ran out and needed a few more skeins. I expected that the color may be slightly different, different dye lot and all, but I didn't expect it to be twice as thick. Maybe the first batch I received in 2025 was not as thick as it's supposed to be, given that it's a chunky. I'll make it work, but I'm not pleased with it.

Hi Cassy, thank you for sharing your experience. We apologize for the inconsistency in thickness and appreciate your understanding. Please reach out to our customer service so we can assist further.

Love this color

Love this color. Made a sweater, turned out too big. Deciding whether to take it apart or just donate it. I really like the yarn though. Would buy it again definitely.

A pleasure to crochet with!

I purchased 8 skeins of Autumn for a throw for my daughter for her birthday. I only ended up using 6 skeins and the throw is large enough for two to cuddle under. I was unfamiliar with chunky yarn, but this was an absolute pleasure to crochet with and the colors remind me of autumn leaves.

Great colors!

I love this yarn :u1F9F6:. This is my current project - a cowl - and it crochets so nicely.

Love, love, LOVE this yarn

OMG I LOVE THIS YARN! Although there may be a few flaws (thin spots or places where the manufacturer tied two pieces together) the value and overall quality make it a worthwhile purchase.

LOVE the chunky, fluffy look and feel to the yarn and how quick projects knit up. Light in weight, but bulky in feel, this yarn is great for my poor arthritic hands.

I've completed a few projects with this yarn, and will be using it regularly.

I love working with this

I love working with this yarn! I made the Pine Trees throw and it is not only beautiful but soft and warm! I bought more Chunky yarn in another color to try a different pattern!

B

Definitely not a chunky yarn. Big disappointment but very nice yarn otherwise. I'm trying to crochet blankets and I find that a chunky #5 is just the right size for me to work with.
