I actually like Walmart’s mainstay sparkle yarn. It’s actually pretty soft. I love the taupe and the mauve, but unfortunately it’s very limited colors!
It seems to be that way across all the mainstay yarns. I haven’t tried their sparkle yarn yet though I thought about getting that for this video! Wish I would have instead of that stinky troyarn
Girl, thank you for taking one for the team with that Troyarn (I have no idea how to say that either! lol)! You’re right, it’s adorable, but wow, what a pain! I can’t believe how much the finished product shed! I don’t think I’ve seen that before. Eek! Great review! And you did great! I can relate to feeling more scattered when I have a lot I want to get done. 💕
I have never seen that either. Even chenille yarns I’m not that crazy about don’t have the finished product shedding like that. And thank you! I think I just work better with a regular schedule haha. Anything that throws that off hurts my brain!
I have not used Bernat Blanket yarn yet. I like thinner chenille yarn. The only ones i have used is Go Handmade from Hobbii, i think, and Premier Parfait Chunky. I have to say that the Premier Parfait Chunky can be pretty frustrating with the shedding that occurs when making a magic ring, when sewing in the ends and especially when frogging. Thank you for the yarn review. 😊
Hello Rachel. Love your channel. Don't get aggravated about the yarns. I have some I am sorry I bought; but what are you going to do? You are real good at what you do. I can't wait to see what you have in mind for Christmas! 🎄So, have a good day and enjoy the quiet. Love to Lilly!
Hi! Thank you for the nice comment! I have never been so frustrated with a yarn before! Hoping to keep people from making the same mistake. You’re already thinking of Christmas! You’re better than me 😆 Lily says hi!
I'm new to your channel, and I'm so happy I found you! Love your reviews and you are so down to earth, and you obviously love dogs too, which is always a plus :) I was wondering if you ever tried the Premier Pixie Dust Brights chenille yarn? It's really soft and has a really pretty sparkle.
Great video! I like when people describe how yarn feels even if its likely the viewer has heard it already. Ive never crocheted with bernat (ive felt it in person tho) but i definitely feel like ik how it feels to crochet with bc of the descriptions. i want to try it eventually but that means having to invest in another yarn brand pretty much
Hahaha I am never this upset over yarn. Not even with my other least favorite (the Lion brand cover story one) I hope you had fun watching me be frustrated 😂
I have tied bigger hooks to no avail. it is an absolute struggle as it does not want to glide off my hook. Just found your channel and enjoy your content.
I don't know how Troyarn wants you to pronounce it, but I would probably pronounce it like 'Trojan' as in with emphasis on 'tro' not the 'yarn' 😁 But who knows 🤷

@@Tfwcrochetthe Troyarn is like a big prank! An actual Trojan horse that appears to be nice and cool, then yo get it and realize your grave mistake!
@@Margar02 that is SUCH a good and funny point. Wish I would have thought of it 🤣

Glad you enjoyed the review. I know lots of people like parfait chunky. I do like it but my favorite premier yarn is the retro velvet!

Love this! New subscriber. Will be watching the other videos on this topic.
Your husband is very cute for buying that last yarn. Too bad it was terribly sheddy
Haha I know right. This reminds me I want to write a review on Amazon to warn others. 😅

@@chelenapavlova1562 I’m so glad you’re here! I haven’t tried that one. Maybe I’ll do a part 2 and try that one next. Thank you for the suggestion.
@@Tfwcrochet I will be watching for that, should you decide to do one (Part 2)
The red heart and Caron yarns would work for keychain or backpack buddy items.
@@ayanadixon4763 they would be since you don’t really snuggle with those. Good idea!

I’m glad you like the descriptions! Bernat can be hit or miss for me but I think it’s worth trying out especially when it goes on sale!
I’m not really sure how you feel about the TroYarn. Could you elaborate? 🤪

I just found you today...I think the eyes on the simply soft start look cute!!
@@ChristiJHutchins glad you’re here! My husbands comment about that star “he looks like he’s seen some things” 😅

@@kat4005 darn I’m sorry to hear that. I’m so glad you found my channel! Happy to have you here ❤️
the 2 small stars with couple more stars or even some moons could be made into a mobile
Great idea!

You’re probably right. My brain was malfunctioning lol. I have a hard time pronouncing a lot of words 😅
