Red Heart Super Saver Bitty Stripes Crayon Box Yarn - 2 Pack of 10oz/283g - 100% Acrylic - #4 Worsted (Medium) - 515 Yards - Knitting/Crochet

I’ve been crocheting for decades. This yarn is a bit on the rough side coming off the skein, but it softens noticeably after being washed. It goes through washer/dryer cycles beautifully and just gets better with time. It’s a breeze to crochet with, uniform in width, absolutely does not split. Just four skeins worked up into a gorgeous afghan and I was using a pretty solid stitch. The yarn colors and color changes along the skein are superb making it fun to use. The only drawback I noticed was that one of the skeins did have several knots which are always annoying to have to deal with. Overall, though, still consider Bitty Stripes to be a VERY budget-friendly winner that would be appreciated by even the least experienced crocheter. I’ll definitely buy it again.

Like most fiber enthusiasts, i had my run with Red Heart as a new crocheter. Sorry Red Heart but this was a huge "loose." I hated the feel of the scratchy yarn and as a left handed crocheter in a right handed world, I would not pick up the hobby again for decades. BITTY STRIPES FOR THE WIN!!! I actually watch a swatch video on you tube for this yarn. I had also heard some techniques for softening the fibers once the project is complete, not the least of which is just plain washing and drying. This works!.... and the yarn becomes very lovely to wear. CROCHETERS UNITE! This yarn was meant for you! Any crocheter knows that most variegated yarns are meant for knitted patterns and when you crochet them you get weird splotchy patterns. Red Heart Bitty Stripes knocked it out the park in a huge way with this! I have a Prineville on my knitting needles which looks nice, but the crochet sweater i am finishing is stunning! CROCHETERS this yarn is for us! The stripes crochet beautifully in every stitch ive tried. It works up best in medium-small chain lengths with the larger chain becoming more blotchy imho. The price is affordable especially if you can find it at your big box stores, which i could not. Why?... because every time they got it in stock, it sells out quickly, for good reason. I ordered a many of the two skein sets as I could afford and I am enjoying the beautiful colorways, great stitch definition, and easy care instructions. If this yarn has the durability super saver is known for, I relinquish my view to never use super saver and I will be buying more Bitty Stripes.q

This yarn surprised me. it was fairly soft but much softer after a first wash. Easy to use as it did not split. The color changes were different than most and added interest to my project.

Love the Bitty Stripe yarn. Much better price through Amazon than any place I have found the yarn. This yarn has become my favorite if not my most favorite yarn to use. The color way works up beautifully. Not the softest but very nice to work with. No splitting and the value can't be beat. The number of yards you receive is a great value.

Beautiful yarn. Works up great. Easy to use. Soft. L

Absolutely love the value and quality of this yarn. The colors are absolutely beautiful and build up so nice! I gave 4 stars because I wish it was softer. Its rough. Hoping after I finish this project, I can use some tips I found online to try to make it softer.

A friend picked out this yarn for me to make a blanket for her. It is great, the super saver size is perfect to not order too much or too little. It is easy to knit with, machine washable and light weight. Super fun color and functional.

making a blanket working up very pretty. love red heart yarn

Yarn colourways I could only find here at Amazon - thanks again!!

Its very nice and soft can’t wait to use it

LOVE this yarn!

The yarn was ok (just a little scratchy) when I started making a blanket but eventually the yarn got thinner & thinner until it was even thinner than dk, just became totally unsuitable to finish the blanket with this yarn.

This is a great accent wool for trims and edging. The colourway is subtle enough that you can work it into a multitude of projects.
