Lion Brand Yarn Bonbons Yarn, Beach, 8 x 28 yd/26 m

I bought this small package of yarn in Beach to make some coasters. The colors are nice and vibrant, and coordinate well together. The yarn (100% cotton in this colorway) is very soft and easy to work with. The skeins are small (28 yds per skein), but I hope to get 6 or so coasters out of the pack. It's a little pricey on Amazon, I think you can get this cheaper at your local craft store. Overall I am very pleased with this purchase.

These tiny skeins of yarn are very small, but so cute. The weight and texture of this particular selection is similar to heavy pearl cotton and would be appropriate for making doilies, baby sweaters/booties/hats, doll clothes, and other "smalls." The description is accurate--be sure to read it carefully before buying, so you won't be disappointed when you see how small Bonbons really are. The nice thing about Bonbons is that you don't have to buy a huge skein of yarn for a small project, and you get a variety of nice colors.

(I'm trying to write a review of everything I buy, to pay it forward for everyone else's helpful comments and ratings. Some reviews are easier than others) You actually get more than you'd think, looking at these little guys. Obviously they cost too much, but it's yarn and it's Lion Brand, so that's kind of par for the course. I ordered Crayons, Beach, and Celebrate, and it's worth noting that Crayons is inexplicably thicker and 'fluffier' than the other two. You can tell from the images that Beach and Celebrate are narrower, smoother, and stringier than Crayons, which has more of a Red-Heart-style worsted weight and feel, so if you're combining yarn from different packages be prepared for some difference there. It's not a huge issue -- no one looked at the tiny scarf I knitted for my desk dinosaur and demanded to know why there were two different yarn textures -- but it's definitely something you'll notice while knitting, and if little details like that bug you, stick with a single package.

This was purchased for a mug hugger project in the granny square book called “Crochet Granny Squares and More”. It was enough yarn to make 3 mug huggers and probably 1 more. Love these colors. Cotton is my go-to yarn. This was easy to work with.

These are tiny bonbons. There a nice thin yarn but not that much of each color I made a infant hat and it took 3 skiens. Bold colors are great sleek yarn no fuzzing, works well. Nice variety pack but expect to change colors often doing a project and keep them small. Would work well for hand embroidery or small crochet projects, or just friendship bracelets. Would buy again now that I know what they are but was a little surprised when got them cause they were so small but I'm new to crochet so it's a beginners error.

I have a book for little knitted critters that I bought this yarn for. It Normally I would just use left over yarn for these projects but I don't have quite the colors I want for some so I bought these. The product information says that each skein measures 2.5 by 1 by 5.25-Inch. I can't figure out how they came up with this measurement as each skein is actually less than 4 inches long and a little over an inch in diameter. I thought they would be about 3x bigger. The yarn is nice and fun to work with. However, in the future, I'll just get together with my other knitting friends and trade off our project leftovers for my smaller projects. It's cheaper and more resourceful.

Description quotes "Each skein measures approximately 7 by 1 by 4.25-Inch." Actuality: 2.5 x 1 x 1 inch. I have a hard time translating the length into wound volume in my head, so I visualised the given measurements. Cute colors, but barely enough to do anything with.

I ordered this yarn for a crocheted shoe project. Bon Bons don't go as far as you might think. So, I ended up ordering several more. It's a lovely cotton which doesn't fuzz or pill. This one in particular is 100% cotton. My project came out amazing and these colors were almost all included in that pattern! Some of the other bon bons by Lion are acrylic. So, make sure you're getting what you intended. This is a great little deal, if you need a variety of colors for your craft or needlework project!

Sono troppo cari - i gomitoli sono picollissimi!

Petit format très pratique, de belles couleurs et de bonne qualité. Approprié pour faire de nombreux loisirs créatifs comme des livres

Sono gomitoli ridicolmente piccoli e purtroppo non ho letto le recensioni e sono stata ingannata dal prezzo basso

Nice feel when working with this yarn. Glides through my fingers nicely without feeling rough. I crochet a lot of small items and these little balls are a perfect size to work with.

Los colores estan super bonitos, la calidad me parece muy bien, son pequeños COMO LO DICE EN LA ETIQUETA! Vi comentarios diciendo que no esperaban que fueran tan pequeños, pero si lo dice en las especificaciones. En fin, si buscas hacer alguna manualidad y ocupas un poco como yo, los use para hacer borlas y quedaron muy bonitas :)
