I loom knit chemo hats. It is a little scratchy perhaps because it has 10% nylon. Made in China. Bought Steel Blue and liked the color. Probably won't buy again because it is a little scratchy for chemo hats. Might be okay for a blanket or scarf especially because of the gradient. Great price on sale and nice colors. It is a 4 weight yarn.

Color is just flawless. It is definitely a worsted 4 it’s not thin four like the ombre. I took a picture because there isn’t any out there. I was looking while waiting on my order. I am impressed with the gradient.

From some of my first crochet projects I started working with Lion Brand Yarn and fell absolutely in love with th brand. They are light weigh, easy to work with and have beautiful color options. This new pattern of colors is awesome for creating blankets with a theme based on mixing color.

This is less of a review on the yarn and more on Joann. I ordered this yarn for pick up at the Bellingham store and it took over a day to process despite the yarn already being in stock at the store and then they cancelled my order without any explanation. Much easier to just go in and get the yarn yourself because apparently the staff can’t walk over to the yarn section and put it in a bag for you. If I could give negative stars I would.
I love this yarn to work with! The colors are so vibrant and the gradient transitions are flawless. I just wish they made a larger skein of this. It's great for medium sized projects (baby blankets, scarfs, beanies, etc).
Saw this yarn and liked the gradient effect. Bought 2 cakes and wanted to make a scarf. I started with the darker end working to the light. Then, I joined the 2nd cake, pulling from the light center to work back out to the dark. 2 cakes make a nice 72-inch scarf. I am happy with the purchase and created a nice gift for my friend who LOVES yellow.
I absolutely love this yarn makes beautiful sweaters. My only issue is with the order process itself and how long it takes to get orders from Joann it’s ridiculous and I’ll not be placing any more orders that need to be shipped I make sweaters as a side business and I needed this yarn I still don’t have my entire order! It would have been better to pay more and get it quicker from somewhere else!
I purchase this yarn to make a c2c and it’s coming out very nice. Color changes are smooth and so far it’s been lovely. Only complaint I have is that it’s listed as a 4 weight. If it is a 4 then it’s on the thicker side which I was slightly annoyed by. It’s closer to a 5 than a 4. And it’s not as smooth as you would think. It’s slightly scratchy.
So, it was a first for me to get Lion Brand yarn that feels a bit rough depending on the color and I buy and work with yarn daily. I am in the middle of making a blanket and got 2 off each color. The colors are true to their photo. So beautiful 😍. The size is a true 4 weight. Not like other LB yarn where it says it's a 4 and it's closer to a 3 weight. The blanket I'm making will be so gorgeous with these gradient skeins. I'm using 2 of each and working both on the opposite to create some fun in this crazy heat. I usually don't do blankets this time if year lol. But couldn't help myself with these new fun colors!Okay now the downside: It splits a little bit of you're not paying attention.

I'm using a straight metal 7 mm hook to give it the most drape, but keeping stitch definition. The feel, I'm really sensitive, it's close to Pound of Love and not the softest depending on the color. Some are very soft but still kind of feel a bit cheap because of the scratchiness.Make sure you pick a stitch to get the most fun out of this cake! Enjoy, have fun and buy them on sale! The size is not bad for the price, but you'll need at least 10 of them to make a decent throw.
I have been looking for a gradient yarn to use in an afghan for my cousin. This Mandala Gradient is everything I was looking for. Perfect blanket weight (5.29 oz) which means for me that it's not too heavy nor too light. Also, the color is what my Cousin wants...light to medium green or turquoise. This is definitely a green, but the colors flirt with turquoise. I now have to buy all the colors. LOL
