I like the vibrant colors. It doesn't split, and the color is consistent through skeins. I'm using it for testing patterns for designers and gifts for friends. I use it for ear bud holders, spa sets, and dishcloths.

Perfect yarn for tote bags
I like the great selection, and the yarn was exactly what I wanted at a very good price. I'm having a bit of a crochet episode and using it for making tote bags, which are turning out very well. The cotton is perfect because I need the bags not to stretch, and it has good quality.
Beautiful colors and easy to use
I love the lovely colours. It is easy to crochet, and I appreciate the quick delivery. I am using it for a jumper in granny squares. It should be great when I have finished it.

Fantastic product, highly recommend
I love this yarn for its softness, thickness and overall usability. Has good stitch definition also. It does tend to split, but I can overlook that. Others may find it annoying. Has nice drape. I use it to make decorative throw rugs.
Great quality affordable yarn
This yarn washes up into a super soft project. The color did run a little when washed but not any more than I expected.
