Your opinion does matter! You are one of the foremost crochet teachers on the interwebs and I value your opinion greatly. In addition please don’t stop,doing yarn reviews, I look forward to hearing your opinions.
Agreed, I don't always watch them but I learned all about yarn from Crystal. She has been correct 💯 of the time. If I ever need specific kinds of yarn for projects, I refer to Crystal. If someone else has crotchet or yarn needs I refer them to Crystal. 😊
Oh I have to agree with another sub, your opinion does matter to me. I made not always agree but I appreciate your opinion. Love you Crystal and who you are don't change for anyone.
Keep going with Yarn Reviews!! Who else is going to tell me if a yarn is scarfable??? Who else will tell me if it smells good??? If is soft?? how are vibrant the colors?? I care about both of these points and you always tell me straight. Keep reviewing so i can live vicariously through you.
My Walmart has some yarn but has not the same amount of colors they use to. The other choices are Hobby Lobby and JoAnns in my town. I have purchased from them all but so disappointed what Walmart has done in the last couple of years. So have purchased on line most of my yarn and recently purchased from Premier Yarns. Love your presentation on both yarns and have watched another person post about the same yarns. I’m happy with both. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Ok, I do not mind the muted colors… there is occasion for that. I don’t mind the very lightest color. I dislike the large stripe of the lightest color, it doesn’t fit, it looks off. I would have to measure it against the other colors and cut out enough so that it doesn’t look so out of place. I wonder if all the colors are like that??
I never knew there are so many different types of yarn until I started watching you. I have learned so much from you. And hope you continue doing what you do. You are the Queen of all things crochet in my book.
Your opinion matters a lot to me! I order 90% of my yarn online and your opinions are 99% spot on with mine. You’ve saved me a lot of money by not buying yarn i wouldn't like or use.😊
Your opinions match my own, except I haven’t actually touched the Premier yet. But I agree with the colors also don’t like the whitish in some of them. I can see for certain projects I might like Premier better. I do love the ease of getting the red heart easily at local stores. Thanks for sharing
@@adriana.ostfriesland I do everything in phases pretty much. When I have free time I'll either be into a series, on youtube catching up or simply crocheting while listening to music. I can't do all at the same time anymore 😂
Your opinion matters, how will we newbies learn if experienced people like you don’t show us options? Thanks for all you do, you are one of my crochet buddies, I watch while crocheting!
Crystal, your opinion does matter. I enjoy your reviews. I find them helpful. You always state that the review is your opinion and say our own opinion may differ. Please continue.
Thank you for your opinion Crystal! I do appreciate the information you pass on to us. We can then take that information and then test it for ourselves! I’ve learned so much watching you! Thank you!
Your comment about the "white" is spot on IMHO.... to me the the word OMBRE means a subtle change of ONE color... not going to the extreme of the color being "lost"! Another fun video! Hugs, GrammaBabs
I love an Ombré yarn on a ripple afghan. I made some as a teenager in the late 80’s-early 90’s and gave them as gifts. Maybe it’s time I make one again. 😅 ❤❤❤ the video.
Crystal, I am a truck driver and travel the States. I don’t have time nor room to look at the yarns you review. I value your opinion because so far, you have not steered me wrong. I appreciate your time and the videos! AMAZING! You ROCK!
I like your yarn reviews! You keep it honest, rather than hoping for a sponsor by giving a good review. We can count on you!I like the lighter shades of ombré. The white, or pale colors make it look like Tye dye or batik. Maybe that’s what they’re going for.
Crystal, I love your yarn reviews. Not being an experienced yarn buyer, I would not have seen the stark white in the Premirr until I had worked it up AND I would never have thought of cutting it out. Seeing the difference in saturation side by side was a real eye-opener. You are teaching me to think outside the box ..not an easy thing for some of us! Love your guidance and skill and just who you are! Thanks, Nancy!
Oh my gosh! I look forward to your yarn reviews! PLEASE don't stop making yarn reviews! I can be having a bad day, but when i watch one of your yarn reviews, I forget about the garbage of the day. You sharing your love, (dare i say obsession? Lol) makes my day happy! ❤
Great comparison video, please don't stop with your reviews. I am new to crochet (learning from your stitch tutorials) and new to purchasing yarn. I have learned so much from you! Incredible! I have a better idea when I am shopping on what to look for and can make better decisions for the projects I want to make. Thank you for all you do!
Hello Crystal ❤ I’m a red heart girl. It softens up after washing. I have 40 year old afghans the grands fight over. I guess we’ll see in 40 years if this new yarn holds up. Love your reviews plz don’t stop them
I so agree with you, I don't like the ones that are so pale almost white in the ombre! I don't prefer the muted either,but some of the colors were nice. I just prefer a teal to be teal & the burgundy to be true to color! I love yourreviews, compassion and all the videos/lives you do even if I don't get to see it live! Thanks for all you do sharing your craft & knowledge with us! I've learned so much. I too will stick with Red Heart Ombre! I love there colors,haven't found one I haven't liked that I bought yet! However if Premer had better saturation in there colors all the way through, I'd buy some and try it,because AZ doesn't require heavy weighted blankets, hats & stuff, so the fact that the yarn is a little lighter, but you get more yards does interest me. But only if they did something about the color issues. I too am a stickler for color in my Ombre!
SOOOO glad you decided to do a review Crystal and Thank You very much for having done so! I opted to not hit that "button" on the cranberry/burgundy. I was VERY sorely tempted!! But glad I did.. It looked gorgeous on site, phone, computer! As with any thing "new" QC takes time. Red Heart did have an issue for awhile, but they have since addressed it. I agree on the white, blaringly obvious. Nope, not in an ombre. Will I continue to use Premier, yes in the solids. I'll wait to see how this "new product" develops and if any QC is done by them regarding saturation of color. Competition, being what it is, if you're gonna play, play to win. 😉
I’m definitely with u on the white band being to thick. The color, for me, is just fine. It depends on what I’m making whether I use a more vivid or a lighter shade.
Oh my gosh love your yarn reviews. I remember when you and Mr. BOD did one pre move to new house ( by years) testing yarns. Color, strength, size. Laughed so hard when yarn would break from y'all's expression's to all but falling outta your chairs with surprise, at things and the talk between y'all. My go to is Red Heart what learned on and still 60 years later loving. Stay Safe and Be Blessed
Crystal I checked that color as you talked about it and it looks almost like a rich Merlot on their website, not a bleached out maroon. I’m glad you’re doing this review because now I can see the true colors. Thank you.
Thank you Crystal for your review. Your opinion does matter. I have to agree, Redheart colors are much brighter, which I like. Crystal, please keep doing what your doing. ❤
Red Heart has beautiful ombré yarns, and I prefer the more saturated colors too. The ‘scratchy’ quality is the only off-putting factor; some I can use, some I can’t. I’ve ordered 2 skeins just to try it, because I can always use Premier yarn. This side by side comparison was SO helpful!
I am glad you are doing a comparison between these two yarns. Premier and Redheart are two of my favorite yarns companies. I haven't tried any of their ombre yarns as yet, so I really appreciate your opinion on them.❤
Sad, none of the yarn you showed even come close to their website. I am so glad you shared as I am a vibrant color gal and would be totally disappointed if I ordered that yarn online.
I prefer to buy in person just so I don't run into that color problem. 9/10 if I'm making a blanket, I will get red heart ombre! I love how you looked at that white and held it like it was full of disease! Your opinion is usually spot on for me when I check out a yarn you review! Thank you
I agree! It's way too much white. Not needed at all. I'm so glad you shared the muted shades. I like Premier Yarns, but I'm glad to know what I'd be buying if I decide to purchase ombre. ❤ I checked the burgundy online, and it showed way darker than what you got.
Crystal, I totally agree with you about the white color it should be taken out. I definitely prefer the more vibrant colors of Red Heart. Great review 😘👍
👋🏻 Hi, Crystal! Your opinion MATTERS!! Thank you SO MUCH for your HONEST review!! ♥️♥️ ---- Less saturation = MORE PROFIT Thinner strand = MORE PROFIT More white in skein = MORE PROFIT Conclusion: Premier is FOR PROFIT, NOT QUALITY!
Thank you for that review, Crystal. Over the years I have learned that you and have about the same taste in yarns. I do have to agree Redheart Hails !!!🏆
I love the saturated colors, too, if I were making something for myself, but if I were wanting a really pretty soft baby blanket, I'd definitely go with the Premier for the muted color palette and the softer feel.
Thanks for telling us about the Premier Ombré. I am a big fan of Red Heat ombré too and have made numerous blankets in all their colors. I like the idea of it being a lighter #4 , I live in a warm climate so lighter is fine and I like getting more yardage. I’ll probably try it, thanks!
I bought some Yarn Art Flowers Merino that had a HUGE swath of white. I worked up one row and then cut it out. And YES your opinion matters a lot to me. I get so much information from you that it has made me a better crocheter and saved me a TON of money not buying crappy yarns. Don't discount your years of experience as not valuable or valued. They are.
I SO agree! Without the "white" - it's gorgeous. I would have to cut the white out too. I have to say you are the kindest reviewer I've seen. You always let us know the information but always go out of your way to be so polite about how you say it. It Gives you mad cred! Lol
Excellent yarn review, Crystal! I thought I was the only one who grew up thinking that if I didn't expect much I wouldn't be disappointed, or surprised at how good something really was. You're right, Red Heart Super Saver Ombre is number one in my book also. when I first saw the Premier Ombre I thought they looked just like Red Heart. I was a bit afraid that maybe they had purchased the rights to Red Heart's Ombre. Thank God they didn't. But they say that imitation is the best form of flattery. Well, they sure flattered Red Heart. You know, this almost reminds me of the shopping trip you and Mr. BOD made to Walmart and you were picking up some RHSS Ombre yarn and the colors were so faded or muted.. I felt like, oh no, please don't change the color. Thankfully, it seams like it was just a mistake in the batch . I liked seeing the test sample you made on your knitting machine. It really helped to see the transitions of the colors. Also, one person's opinion does matter. I do like how you tell us to check it out for ourselves. You're the best, Crystal. That's only my opinion, but it is backed up by the opinion of thousands more. Keep up the fantastic work, Crystal. God bless you.
I checked the Premiere site and fell in love with the same color as you. If I hadn’t seen the yarn you got I might have ordered. The yarn you received did not look anything like the gorgeous, deep burgundy color shown on the site, what a disa
Very informative and I agree with you. Just wish Red Heart wouldn’t be so scratchy to work with. I keep using it though because, as you said, it’s the best flowing ombré ever and it washes and drys beautifully. Thank you for posting. I like the Just Yarn solid colors and was hoping for a nice easy flowing ombré with no abrupt mid row surprise color changes.
Red Heart rules!!? Thank you Crystal. I very much value your opinions as they are considered and educated. I hope you do more comparisons. I learn so much about yarns that way.❤
Crystal, one of your best qualities is your independent judgment- you are not a shill for any yarn company, which makes your opinion so trustworthy - and so vitally important!!! So I LOVE your yarn reviews! (okay, if you don’t want to do yarn reviews… how about calling them yarn assessments? 😂) I fully agree about the muted burgundy. I pulled up Premier’s website while you were holding up your skein and saw exactly what you meant- they looked like two different colorways! Thank you for such an informative and helpful video! As always, you’re the best! ❤
So far you are the most thorough and honest content creator doing a comparison of red heart ombre and Premiere ombre. Funny how the affiliates with Premiere are telling red heart to watch out and Premiere is much better. They were just talking about the value for the money the regular price of red heart and not what you can get it for like at Walmart and other places compared to Premiere's price.They never talked about the weight of the yarn. Your opinion matters and that's why I watch your videos!
I like the Red Heart Ombré colors too. I have made several blankets using it. The Premire Ombré is pretty too. Sometimes I would like the muted colors it depends on what I’m making. Thank you for sharing your review on these Ombré yarns. I appreciate your opinion. 🧶💜🙏🏻
I agree with you in regards to too much of the lighter shade. It's very unappealing. 🤷🏼♀️ And, your opinion matters very much to us! I love watching your reviews 🥰 I had many disappointments in my early years of marriage so, I learned very quickly to never count on or look forward to anything until it actually happened. 🤷🏼♀️ Wishing you a beautiful blessed weekend 🙏🏻 Love you 🥰💝
I love Ombré yarn. But since I don’t get out to the stores where I can touch the yarn, I rely on those I trust to give me honest reviews and tips before I buy and try. You are one of those I trust. Thank you for your review!!!
I agree with you 100% Crystal & wish I had waited for your review before buying the ombré from Premier. I bought the burgundy & the teal & to me both are lighter in color than what they look like online. I also hate the white (or almost white color) that many companies put in their ombré yarns. I realize that’s personal preference but when it doesn’t match their online pictures but other yarns they offer do match online pictures then it makes me wonder 🤨 I am stuck to only being able to order online because I live in the mountains of WV & too far away to travel for yarn. I also have a very limited budget so I must shop sales & cheaper yarn, I must say I like alot of other yarn Premier makes but this one I wish was a little more saturated with color & no white. I do want to say that Premier does have one of the BEST customer services I’ve ever dealt with. They accidentally sent me the wrong color on one of my orders & I sent them a text message & within 5 minutes they sent me a reply apologizing & sent the color I requested out immediately & let me keep the large size order that was the wrong color❣️ No hassle at all & I thought that was very generous of them. Thanx Crystal for all your help with everything & next time a new inexpensive color comes out I’ll wait for your comparison before buying! 🤣 🙋🏻♀️🦋🙏🏼✝️🕊️
Crystal, I think the reddish ombré looks like a vintage rose color. For me, I think it’s beautiful! Thank you for reviewing the Premier yarns. I am with you on the use of the bright whites used with several of the other ombres you showed. All you focus on is the drastic white. I still prefer variegated yarns because I am not a real fan of the lines created with the color changes with ombré.
Hey good morning Crystal, how are you? I too love the ombré yarns. And you’ve got me smelling yarn and rubbing it under my chin to see how it feels. I love it. And you. Your opinion counts cause you have quite the following and people listen to you.
I was just looking at the Premiere ombre today and I agree about the "white ". It just looks like too much. Thanks for another great & honest review, Crystal!
Thank you for sharing your opinion. I agree with you about he white patch! Not consistent! You did an excellent job of showing the plus and minuses and I so appreciate this review! ❤❤❤
2/23/24 Did check out colors on my phone and they are definitely different from what you bought. I always appreciate your opinions since I am not an expert. Keep showing the yarns and voicing your opinions, I think that helps a lot of people..❤
Love you, Crystal! I also like (even though it's THIN) the Caron Halo because the ombre effect is pretty close to perfect. I agree with you 100%. You're the best! Hugs
Thank you for the yarn review. It really helps me save some money because I don't buy something that is not as good as something else. I really like Red Heart too. I don't care for all the white in the Premier Ombres.
You’re the only person whose opinion matters whenever I want to try a yarn. I think we have a similar feeling about yarns so I stick with you and trust what you say. ❤
Your opinion does matter! You are one of the foremost crochet teachers on the interwebs and I value your opinion greatly. In addition please don’t stop,doing yarn reviews, I look forward to hearing your opinions.
Thank you ❤️
I wouldn't mind the white if it didn't have so much, it would also be nice if there were a brighter blue in it.
Red Heart Ombre is my fav also.
Agreed, I don't always watch them but I learned all about yarn from Crystal. She has been correct 💯 of the time. If I ever need specific kinds of yarn for projects, I refer to Crystal. If someone else has crotchet or yarn needs I refer them to Crystal. 😊
Oh I have to agree with another sub, your opinion does matter to me. I made not always agree but I appreciate your opinion. Love you Crystal and who you are don't change for anyone.
Keep going with Yarn Reviews!! Who else is going to tell me if a yarn is scarfable??? Who else will tell me if it smells good??? If is soft?? how are vibrant the colors?? I care about both of these points and you always tell me straight. Keep reviewing so i can live vicariously through you.
Absolutely!
Agreed!
I know you said you wouldn’t do anymore new yarn review but I am soooooo GLAD you did!!!! Thank you ❤
Hello Crystal!
My Walmart has some yarn but has not the same amount of colors they use to. The other choices are Hobby Lobby and JoAnns in my town. I have purchased from them all but so disappointed what Walmart has done in the last couple of years. So have purchased on line most of my yarn and recently purchased from Premier Yarns. Love your presentation on both yarns and have watched another person post about the same yarns. I’m happy with both. ❤❤❤😊😊😊

I would have to measure it against the other colors and cut out enough so that it doesn’t look so out of place. I wonder if all the colors are like that??
Girl is dropping hints 🎉🎉🎉

I agree, picked up on it immediately 😆
I never knew there are so many different types of yarn until I started watching you. I have learned so much from you. And hope you continue doing what you do. You are the Queen of all things crochet in my book.
Your opinion matters a lot to me! I order 90% of my yarn online and your opinions are 99% spot on with mine. You’ve saved me a lot of money by not buying yarn i wouldn't like or use.😊
Agree!
Same! ❤
Crystal I’m not always on RUclips but every now and again I check in on your page & you’re almost to 1 million subscribers!!! You go girl!!!!
Do you still watch tv? 😮I can’t imagine my life without youtube.
😆@@adriana.ostfriesland
Your opinions match my own, except I haven’t actually touched the Premier yet. But I agree with the colors also don’t like the whitish in some of them. I can see for certain projects I might like Premier better. I do love the ease of getting the red heart easily at local stores. Thanks for sharing

Red Heart's Anemone is beautiful and still my FAVORITE!❤ Love you Crystal!
Crystal...people are going to look at the yardage , not the weight,And think they are getting a bargain....but I think your straight up right.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your opinion matters, how will we newbies learn if experienced people like you don’t show us options? Thanks for all you do, you are one of my crochet buddies, I watch while crocheting!
Crystal, your opinion does matter. I enjoy your reviews. I find them helpful. You always state that the review is your opinion and say our own opinion may differ. Please continue.
Thank you for your opinion Crystal! I do appreciate the information you pass on to us. We can then take that information and then test it for ourselves! I’ve learned so much watching you! Thank you!
I honestly died😅 laughing when you said the chubby chunk of white 😂😂😂
Totally agree with your thoughts on the wide chunk of WHITE in that coral colored yarn! Premier! Listen to this please!
Your comment about the "white" is spot on IMHO.... to me the the word OMBRE means a subtle change of ONE color... not going to the extreme of the color being "lost"! Another fun video! Hugs, GrammaBabs
I'm on the website now, and you're right, it is much more vibrant on the computer.
I love an Ombré yarn on a ripple afghan. I made some as a teenager in the late 80’s-early 90’s and gave them as gifts. Maybe it’s time I make one again. 😅
❤❤❤ the video.
I like Red Heart Ombré better, better colors and better phasing of colors thanks for showing us 👍🏻
Crystal, I am a truck driver and travel the States. I don’t have time nor room to look at the yarns you review. I value your opinion because so far, you have not steered me wrong. I appreciate your time and the videos! AMAZING! You ROCK!
Thanks Crystal. I find your opinions on yarn spot on. You are my yarn guide!
I like your yarn reviews! You keep it honest, rather than hoping for a sponsor by giving a good review. We can count on you!I like the lighter shades of ombré. The white, or pale colors make it look like Tye dye or batik. Maybe that’s what they’re going for.

You are teaching me to think outside the box
..not an easy thing for some of us! Love your guidance and skill and just who you are! Thanks, Nancy!
Omg could a new line of yarn be coming out soon from our favorite crochet teacher 😱 What a fantastic way to celebrate 1M subs! 🎉🎊🥇🍾🧶
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I hope this is true!
I wholeheartedly appreciate these types of videos!!!😊
I know YOU'RE speaking on collab ombre. Hopefully, what you are hinting at.... im excited ❤❤❤❤❤
I like the Red Heart ombré, but, I think I will like this one too. Sometimes, I prefer a muted yarn for certain projects.
It’s nice to have options. 😊
I trust your opinion , doesn’t mean I love everything you love , but you show options , that’s why I trust you 😊
Love your tutorials and your yarn reviews. Thank you Crystal for all you do for this community and for sharing with us every day.
Oh my gosh! I look forward to your yarn reviews! PLEASE don't stop making yarn reviews! I can be having a bad day, but when i watch one of your yarn reviews, I forget about the garbage of the day. You sharing your love, (dare i say obsession? Lol) makes my day happy! ❤
Your opinion is important! I think I appreciate most that you love all yarn and understand there is a value in budget friendly yarns.
I love your honest opinions. I have to say. I totally agreed about the white on it. That was my question as well. Ty Crystal for all you do. ❤❤❤
Great comparison video, please don't stop with your reviews. I am new to crochet (learning from your stitch tutorials) and new to purchasing yarn. I have learned so much from you! Incredible! I have a better idea when I am shopping on what to look for and can make better decisions for the projects I want to make. Thank you for all you do!

I can not wait for your yarn line. I'm saving money to get ready. I'm so excited!!!!!!❤
Hello Crystal ❤ I’m a red heart girl. It softens up after washing. I have 40 year old afghans the grands fight over. I guess we’ll see in 40 years if this new yarn holds up. Love your reviews plz don’t stop them

I love your yarn reviews and have never been disappointed by your opinion.
Crystal, you have now gotten me to smell the yarn ....lol
Me too!!
Right? I'm doing it too!
I do the same thing
Me too lol
I agree about the colors not being as bright as pictured online, especially the maroon/burgundy one!
The violet Ombre is my very favorite!!!
Same!!!😍💯
Purple is one of my favorite color and that was a beautiful purple
I’m definitely with u on the white band being to thick. The color, for me, is just fine. It depends on what I’m making whether I use a more vivid or a lighter shade.
Oh my gosh love your yarn reviews. I remember when you and Mr. BOD did one pre move to new house ( by years) testing yarns. Color, strength, size.

Hi Crystal! I love ombre yarn because I can get all the hues of certain colors. I love the transition parts! Thanks for the information! 💙💙
When you said it was different photo vs live, I HAD to check....
You weren't kidding!! BIG difference!!😮
I agree
Thank you Crystal for your review. Your opinion does matter. I have to agree, Redheart colors are much brighter, which I like. Crystal, please keep doing what your doing. ❤
Red Heart has beautiful ombré yarns, and I prefer the more saturated colors too. The ‘scratchy’ quality is the only off-putting factor; some I can use, some I can’t. I’ve ordered 2 skeins just to try it, because I can always use Premier yarn. This side by side comparison was SO helpful!
Red Heart is my favorite as well, but the new ones are going to be nice for spring or babies maybe
I am glad you are doing a comparison between these two yarns. Premier and Redheart are two of my favorite yarns companies. I haven't tried any of their ombre yarns as yet, so I really appreciate your opinion on them.❤
I bought 10 of the blue Scuba red heart ombre. Love it.
I agree. Red Heart Ombré is my favorite too! The white stripe would bother me.
I just love ombré yarns…l❤❤❤
I love your yarn reviews. You are thorough. You are honest. You talk about all the aspects of the yarn. Please don't stop.❤
Sad, none of the yarn you showed even come close to their website. I am so glad you shared as I am a vibrant color gal and would be totally disappointed if I ordered that yarn online.
You are absolutely right about that yarn looking much different than what used to be pictured on their sight.

Crystal, I totally agree with you about the white color it should be taken out. I definitely prefer the more vibrant colors of Red Heart. Great review 😘👍
👋🏻 Hi, Crystal!
Your opinion MATTERS!!
Thank you SO MUCH for your HONEST review!! ♥️♥️
----
Less saturation = MORE PROFIT
Thinner strand = MORE PROFIT
More white in skein = MORE PROFIT
Conclusion: Premier is FOR PROFIT, NOT QUALITY!
I’ve used Red Heart Ombre for years & love the color transitions & brightness. Thanks for your review! I’ll be sticking with what I love!
Thank you for that review, Crystal. Over the years I have learned that you and have about the same taste in yarns. I do have to agree Redheart Hails !!!🏆

You know, this almost reminds me of the shopping trip you and Mr. BOD made to Walmart and you were picking up some RHSS Ombre yarn and the colors were so faded or muted.. I felt like, oh no, please don't change the color. Thankfully, it seams like it was just a mistake in the batch . I liked seeing the test sample you made on your knitting machine. It really helped to see the transitions of the colors. Also, one person's opinion does matter. I do like how you tell us to check it out for ourselves. You're the best, Crystal. That's only my opinion, but it is backed up by the opinion of thousands more. Keep up the fantastic work, Crystal. God bless you.
We definitely trust your opinions on all yarn and crochet related things
I also like Red Heart Ombre as well. The colors are so much nicer.
I checked the Premiere site and fell in love with the same color as you. If I hadn’t seen the yarn you got I might have ordered. The yarn you received did not look anything like the gorgeous, deep burgundy color shown on the site, what a disa
Thanks for doing the mock up!!! I'm with you, dont like THAT much light color.
Very informative and I agree with you. Just wish Red Heart wouldn’t be so scratchy to work with. I keep using it though because, as you said, it’s the best flowing ombré ever and it washes and drys beautifully. Thank you for posting. I like the Just Yarn solid colors and was hoping for a nice easy flowing ombré with no abrupt mid row surprise color changes.
Red Heart rules!!? Thank you Crystal. I very much value your opinions as they are considered and educated. I hope you do more comparisons. I learn so much about yarns that way.❤
Crystal, one of your best qualities is your independent judgment- you are not a shill for any yarn company, which makes your opinion so trustworthy - and so vitally important!!!
So I LOVE your yarn reviews! (okay, if you don’t want to do yarn reviews… how about calling them yarn assessments? 😂)
I fully agree about the muted burgundy. I pulled up Premier’s website while you were holding up your skein and saw exactly what you meant- they looked like two different colorways!
Thank you for such an informative and helpful video! As always, you’re the best! ❤
I agree with you about the white Crystal. I'm fine with muted colors, but it doesn't need the white .
Love Red Heart Ombré! Especially for crochet lap blanket stars, the ombré comes out fantastic!
Oh my goodness! That burgundy on their site is so lovely and what you have is no way like that! What you have is more terracotta tones. I'm in the UK!
Thx for the review, keeping my ears open for what’s coming 🥰
So far you are the most thorough and honest content creator doing a comparison of red heart ombre and Premiere ombre. Funny how the affiliates with Premiere are telling red heart to watch out and Premiere is much better. They were just talking about the value for the money the regular price of red heart and not what you can get it for like at Walmart and other places compared to Premiere's price.They never talked about the weight of the yarn. Your opinion matters and that's why I watch your videos!
Crystal, my favorite quote is,
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO EXPECT NOTHING...FOR THEY SHALL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED
I'm right there with ❤ you ❤ 29:45
Awesome review of that yarn. I was wondering about it, and am glad you did this one. Sure wish Redheart was a little softer though.🤷🏼♀️😊
I like the Red Heart Ombré colors too. I have made several blankets using it. The Premire Ombré is pretty too. Sometimes I would like the muted colors it depends on what I’m making. Thank you for sharing your review on these Ombré yarns. I appreciate your opinion. 🧶💜🙏🏻
I love muted colours. I live your review. Always something to learn from you
I agree with you in regards to too much of the lighter shade. It's very unappealing. 🤷🏼♀️ And, your opinion matters very much to us! I love watching your reviews 🥰
I had many disappointments in my early years of marriage so, I learned very quickly to never count on or look forward to anything until it actually happened. 🤷🏼♀️
Wishing you a beautiful blessed weekend 🙏🏻 Love you 🥰💝
I love Ombré yarn. But since I don’t get out to the stores where I can touch the yarn, I rely on those I trust to give me honest reviews and tips before I buy and try. You are one of those I trust. Thank you for your review!!!
I agree with you 100% Crystal & wish I had waited for your review before buying the ombré from Premier.
I bought the burgundy & the teal & to me both are lighter in color than what they look like online.
I also hate the white (or almost white color) that many companies put in their ombré yarns.
I realize that’s personal preference but when it doesn’t match their online pictures but other yarns they offer do match online pictures then it makes me wonder 🤨
I am stuck to only being able to order online because I live in the mountains of WV & too far away to travel for yarn.
I also have a very limited budget so I must shop sales & cheaper yarn, I must say I like alot of other yarn Premier makes but this one I wish was a little more saturated with color & no white.
I do want to say that Premier does have one of the BEST customer services I’ve ever dealt with.
They accidentally sent me the wrong color on one of my orders & I sent them a text message & within 5 minutes they sent me a reply apologizing & sent the color I requested out immediately & let me keep the large size order that was the wrong color❣️
No hassle at all & I thought that was very generous of them.
Thanx Crystal for all your help with everything & next time a new inexpensive color comes out I’ll wait for your comparison before buying! 🤣
🙋🏻♀️🦋🙏🏼✝️🕊️
Crystal, I think the reddish ombré looks like a vintage rose color. For me, I think it’s beautiful! Thank you for reviewing the Premier yarns. I am with you on the use of the bright whites used with several of the other ombres you showed. All you focus on is the drastic white. I still prefer variegated yarns because I am not a real fan of the lines created with the color changes with ombré.
Wow, those ombre's are gorgeous! I will need to order them all. For once I do like all the colourways ♥
Hey good morning Crystal, how are you? I too love the ombré yarns. And you’ve got me smelling yarn and rubbing it under my chin to see how it feels. I love it. And you. Your opinion counts cause you have quite the following and people listen to you.
Ooooo new yarn. I just may purchase some because it is thinner and see how it flows
I was just looking at the Premiere ombre today and I agree about the "white ". It just looks like too much. Thanks for another great & honest review, Crystal!
Thank you for sharing your opinion. I agree with you about he white patch! Not consistent! You did an excellent job of showing the plus and minuses and I so appreciate this review! ❤❤❤
2/23/24 Did check out colors on my phone and they are definitely different from what you bought. I always appreciate your opinions since I am not an expert. Keep showing the yarns and voicing your opinions, I think that helps a lot of people..❤
Love you, Crystal! I also like (even though it's THIN) the Caron Halo because the ombre effect is pretty close to perfect. I agree with you 100%. You're the best! Hugs
I like Ombré yarn also. I think you are asking the same questions I have. It’s hard to beat Red Heart super saver. Good video.
I agree with you about the color pallet.
Thank you for the yarn review. It really helps me save some money because I don't buy something that is not as good as something else. I really like Red Heart too. I don't care for all the white in the Premier Ombres.
I totally agree with you about the white in ombré yarn. And what a great idea of cutting it out. You are awesome!!
You’re the only person whose opinion matters whenever I want to try a yarn. I think we have a similar feeling about yarns so I stick with you and trust what you say. ❤
