    If you are looking for a yarn to swatch, the Big Twist Value Christmas Colors would be fun! I am using it to make mini stockings and I love it! I love your videos and watch them as soon as you make them! Thank you!

    Great job on the swatches, Cody and Glenda. I think it’s awesome that you thought of other’s ways to do it when you first attempt didn’t work. I do love the remake yarn. The air is not something I wouldn’t use in my projects. I can use sportlight weight yarn, dk, medium and bulky. Thanks for videos. Sending prayers, love and hugs

    Have a good day!

  • @kimberlymendenhall4449
    @kimberlymendenhall4449 2 месяца назад +5

    I really like the Remake. The wool ease air is more of a novelty yarn in my opinion. It's like working with homespun. You have to feel your stitches, you can't see them. Take care guys ❤

    • @ravelanone9462
      @ravelanone9462 2 месяца назад +2

      So true about Homespun! I learned the hard way, 20 years ago. 🤣 Once I figured out that I had to feel the stitches, I made lots of wonderful things with Homespun, and it's silky soft and lovely.

    Hi Glenda & Cody. Thanks for showing us some of the Remake yarn colors & how they looked worked up. I especially liked the Azure blue, Dusty lilac & pink colors & how they worked up in your Granny square swatch Glenda. I wasn't a fan of the LB Wool Ease Aire w/ the sneak peek on Tues as I have worked w/ a similar yarn in the past & see that you both have a similar opinion as to the difficulty in crocheting w/ it. Cody, thanks for struggling w/ those swatches of the Aire yarn. I was feeling your frustration as you were working that swatch on the sneak peek Tues. Thanks also for the wash & dry tests on the yarns. ❤️

  • @judyinmichigan3418

    I really love these videos! Another thing I would be interested in, is telling what hook size you use to make your sample. That helps us to figure out exactly if it's a thinner or thicker version of a certain yarn.

    Oh My Goodness I am really liking both of those Granny Squares!
    The colors for both are PERFECT 🤩
    Do you have a tutorial for them (granny squares) mine doesn’t look anything like yours at all…
    The WoolEase yarn works great on the handheld S shaped Loom but to crochet 😠

  • @aprilsmith4030
    @aprilsmith4030 2 месяца назад

    Love watching you both. Choosing yarn is much easier after watching your videos it takes the guess work out of buying yarn online. I appreciate the time you take to review the samples and how you wash and dry and how it comes out. Much appreciated all you both do. Thank you very much 💓 😊

  • @ella2681
    @ella2681 Месяц назад +1

    The wool ease is BEAUTIFUL when knit!! It's too bad it doesn't work well crocheted. I just got some the other day, and while it definitely is a bit tricky to work with, the swatches I have made so far came out lovely. All the fluff catches on the inside when I knit it, so the outside is smooth with a very slight fuzzy texture and good stitch definition and the inside is super fluffy and fuzzy and soft. Looks totally different from your swatches- I almost couldn't believe it was the same yarn! I used 6 mm needles. I am super excited to make sweaters and hand warmers and fuzzy winter things with it. I'm sorry it didn't work well for you!! Maybe give it away to a knitter :) Funny how crocheters and knitters can have such different experiences and outcomes with certain yarns!

  • @judeultra7348
    @judeultra7348 2 месяца назад +1

    Those granny squares are everything!! so beautiful!! Yah know what that weird wool would be great for and absolutely beautiful would be in art weaving or to achieve that texture, I mean incredibly niche in my eyes but nonetheless I will buy and try it out for that, lol thanks for the review, I'm intrigued.

  • @aliciabuchanan7080
    @aliciabuchanan7080 2 месяца назад +2

    I like to use fuzzy yarn with a non fuzzy carrier yarn ie if you hold that together with like say super saver yarn its easier to crochet and is nice and soft too.

    Love the lilac! I usually don't like greens but the split pea has won me over. Like the autumn colors too. I really appreciate the wash/dry tests! I get soooo frustrated with fuzzy yarns and I've been crocheting for over 45 years! If yarn is hand wash/lay flat to dry it's not for me.

    I really like the colors and the way the re-make looked worked up. 👍 To me the wool ease aire is a novelty yarn. Not sure if it would help working it up with another yarn or not. Maybe it would work better as a border on a cardigan or wearable or something. 😂 Trying to remain optimistic! 😂 I mean you either love or hate working with yarns like this. Thanks for sharing! 😊

    Thanks for the review of the Re-Make yarn, Glenda and Cody! I was turned off by it being 100% polyester, but you’ve changed my opinion of it and I’m going to give it a try! 😊 I’ll pass on the Wool-Ease Aire.

  • @barbarapowell8694
    @barbarapowell8694 2 месяца назад +1

    I love the look of the Remake, especially Autumn granny square, loved those colors together. I looked at the Wool-Aire when I was in Michaels & just didn't like it. It would be a pain to frog. I doubt it will be around long because so far everyone I have seen review it does not like it. Thank you for your reviews! If Michael's carries the ReMake I will pick some up.

    First of all, therekaie yarn were impressive. That was just beautiful, and I am thinking how nice it would look with a creamy white.
    I was not impressed by the woollies air yarn at all. It just did not look attractive. And I don’t think it would look much better knitted. Lion Brand, accompany that puts out wonderful yarn. Missed on this one.
    Thanks for the great video. As always, I enjoyed it and again, please put all of these videos into one playlist. I like to go back and look at them, and save the ones that I really like.

  • @jillywilly6512
    @jillywilly6512 2 месяца назад

    It’s nice to have some solid yarns in swatches. Sometimes you just want to have a solid and use a really pretty stitch, that doesn’t show in a colorful yarn. Maybe it sounds boring, but you have a lot of more detailed pretty stitches on your sight that would be nice to highlight when you show some solid yarns that show good definition. (Like today) I’m happily surprised that you like the polyester Re-make. I usually don’t go near polyester. But I’ll look at that one. …. No Bueno on the wispy wool ease😒….. Hi to The Bee!🐝
    Thanks again for your hard work,👍

  • @charlottebruce6841
    @charlottebruce6841 2 месяца назад

    Don't like the pink, blue or green. or dusty lilac, so that leaves the browns. Nice patterns that were used though!! I like it when Cody uses the V stitch, the Kroller stitch, the Chevron stitch and the granny square. Am not fond of the plain double stitch for samples because the other stitch patterns show up the yarn colors better with the other stitches. Thank you both for taking your time to make these samples for us!!! Hugs

  • @erisisthename
    @erisisthename 2 месяца назад

    The remake looks great! I’m gonna have to order/pickup a skein of the aire. It sounds like it’s a great functional yarn, like to like things with for insulation. You’ve peaked my curiosity. Thanks for another thorough sample video!
