    I watched Glenda's video last night teaching the Kroller stitch and putting the white border on Cody's blanket! I have been looking & looking at yarns. Want to make my daughter a throw for her room. She loves pink so....😊Thank you for all your tutorials. You make it all so easy to understand.

    That's a busy yarn. I always like to put a solid color with busy yarn like that. I agree

    Thanks for showcasing this yarn. I think it's very pretty. I would use it for a small project, hat, scarf also because of the busy pattern and care instructions.

    The sample that you washed and then dried in the dryer, it shrank half an inch on the height, and stretched 2 inches in length! Thank you so much for these swatch videos. It helps tremendously! 😊

  • @ellenrichardson7129

    The blues are gorgeous. I think it would make a beautiful mermaid tail blanket. I like the green as well.

    @DOSBoxMom 16 часов назад +1

    I'm doing a pattern test (for another designer) using Premier Ever Soft Multi, which also has relatively short color changes. It did stripe in the strap area of the project, but the straps were only 4 stitches wide. I noticed a lot of diagonal color pooling with many of the samples of Bernat Spark you showed.

  • @lunah5668
    @lunah5668 21 час назад

    My favorites the Green and the Blue. Gorgeous both. Will look for this yarn o make a blanket for my bed. The green remind me the tone of green I want to put in the wall behind my bed. You guys are the best.

  • @theresaburg5881
    @theresaburg5881 21 час назад

    The two blues and the pink at the end are my favourites. I always find it interesting how they look in the skein vs crocheted up and how the stitch you use makes a big difference.

    Hi love that you do wash and dry tests. I wash most of my crochet things in a mesh bag,they come in all sizes and save most things from becoming fuzzy. It also stops things from getting tangled and limp feeling. Hope that helps someone. Wash and dry in the bags on low.

  • @virginiawilliams9998
    @virginiawilliams9998 12 часов назад

    I agree with Cody that these colorways are just too busy. As a result, there is very little stitch definition in the swatches, especially the granny square. I love that you not only worked up the swatches (green was my favorite) but also showed what a final product would look like after washing - the right way and the wrong way. Thank you so much!

  • @justsuzy321
    @justsuzy321 20 часов назад

    I love that first color with the dark gold, reds, purples, etc. I think it would be pretty in a chevron blanket as a stripe with the coordinating color stripes. Also a great Autumn cardiganm

  • @MoniqueD-yf6do
    @MoniqueD-yf6do 21 час назад

    The OCD part of me likes the beige colorway but, I think my favorite would be the greens and blue sample. Unless this yarn was on sale and had solid color options, I do not think I will go out of my way to purchase this yarn. Thank you Cody and Glenda for all your time and hardwork you put into purchasing the yarn, making the samples, filming/editing the videos, and washing/drying all the samples. 💚

    Oooh those are such pretty colorways 😍. But like you said, I would (if I found it on a really good sale) make something & unless it was a hat/scarf-it would be getting thrown in the washer and dryer. The linen I think is my favorite... though I do like em all. Hand wash & lay flat to dry is so not us nowadays. Or put on a drying rack or clothes line. Thanks for this video 😊!

    Pricey but gorgeous. Perfect for a newbie to knit with as well. Would be easy to cast on.

    Would not want to hand wash and lay it flat to dry.

    I appreciate all of your videos. I agree with everyone else. This yarn is a little bit pricey for me. I have used Brnat and was disappointed with the outcome. I would prefer the green. Would like blankets look alright if you put an Off White or White with this yarn? ++ Just wondering if would every put all your yarn swatches for the video all together and maybe separate them with the White or Off White? ++ Just curious. 😊 🎉

    @roxiblair8861 21 час назад

    Hey Glenda and Cody - always love your videos - thanks for sharing. Good to see the swatches - good going Cody - thanks for your work on those. Well, I can't use anything with wool, but of all the colors, and of course, depending on the stitch, I liked the Mistic, but since I'm in love with blue tones, my favorite would be Oceania the best... good to know about the washing instructions too! But yikes, what do folks do when they do not know the washing instructions?? If you sell or give as a gift, do you put a note with it on the washing instructions or let them find out?? :-)

    These are lovely yarns. My favorite color is purple one. I wanted to love these yarns but the price and the fact that it’s very busy is too much for my sentiments. I think the swatches were pretty and I really do love the purple one, I just don’t see me buying it.
