Customers say the Rico Creative Melange Chunky is a joy to work with, and it's easy to see why. The melange blend gives every project a lovely depth, with colour changes that develop gradually as you work. 🧶
Reviewers describe it as a smooth, pleasant yarn to handle, and many say it knits up beautifully and crochets well, working up quickly and evenly.
Many buyers love the colour mixes in this range. One reviewer described the blue and green shades as bringing to mind the sea on a stormy day, while others enjoy the fun and neutral colourways. Because the shades change along the way, one reviewer noted that the melange helped disguise small mistakes in a group blanket project.
Reviewers often mention how consistent the yarn feels in use. Customers say it makes even, tidy fabric, and the stocking stitch in particular shows off the colour changes beautifully. One reviewer said it looked fabulous worked up in a crochet jacket.
Customers say the finished pieces feel soft and cosy, and they appreciate the warmth of the wool blend. Reviewers have made scarves, hats, baby blankets and sweaters with it, and one said that a single skein was enough to make a beautiful hat. 😊

This is fast becoming my favourite yarn for cosy crocheted wearables. I really like the interesting colour changes and the blue green in particular makes beautiful scarves that make me think of the sea on a stormy day.
the Rico Creative Melange Chunky was an incredible Sale Price, the range of Fun Neutral Colorways is inspiration for creativity from knitting or crocheting LegWarmers, Aprons, Arm Warmers, Sweaters to woven Scarves! Super soft squishy goodness! Looking Forward to my Finished Knits!
Great color, consistent yarn thickness, soft wool blend, smooth to crochet with! Used a thermal stitch for this warm baby blanket, (see pic). I bought the yarn while traveling in Germany. When I returned home to the US I needed more for the project I finally decided on. Ordering on line was quick easy, matching the same lot #! The company was quick to confirm my order, I received it very quickly in the US. ❤️ I will be ordering more from them!
I have used this product before. It crochets well and, as I make double blankets as well as hats and scarves I need a lot of it. The colour ways appeal to me and my family.
This is a first class wool. It crochets beautifully and is a pleasure to use. The colours are strong and vibrant - and I got it when it was on sale.
The yarn is soft and comfy and a pleasure to crochet with. The colour ways flow seamlessly into each other.
The wool is soft to the touch and crochets well. I upscaled a well loved pattern and, although the king size blanket is not yet finished it is looking great. I love the way the shades complement each other.
Really beautiful colour blends and lovely soft feel to the yarn.
Please dont ever stop stocking this, I love it. Crocheted into a fabulous earthy tones blanket and snoods using 10mm hook, fairly soft and subtle tones,.the colour change is gradual which I like.
This was bought as a fun knit for a family project where everyone from 10-90 is knitting a square to make a blanket. The colour is beautiful and we chose the melange to coverup any mistakes ! The colour is beautiful mix of dark blue and turquoise The only snag is that the yarn tends to separate.
