(1 Skein) Lion Brand Yarn Shawl in A Ball, Prism

The colors of Cleansing Quartz complement S&P hair which is more brownish-charcoal and taupes. Usually create apparel pieces in jewel tones but have some neutral pieces which also coordinate perfectly with this yarn. (Colors are warmer than attached pictures portray.) Not a fan of sparkly but the metallic isn't very noticeable.Skein was consistently fingering weight with very little of of the 'thick/thin' quality mentioned in some reviews. No knots. Recommend making cake or rolling into ball before using as pulling from center caused skein to collapse, tangle. Has a deliciously soft hand and the high cotton content is nice in warmer climate. Blocked beautifully.Used about 360 yds for scarf based on Dillwyn pattern. The subtlety of the long, gradual color transitions made it easy to remove a portion of the black to balance with other colors.Despite nearly 55 years of knitting/crocheting, first time working with multi-colored or striping yarn. (Only started sewing print fabrics a handful of years ago.) So enjoyed working with this yarn, excited to try another color combo.ETA: Feng Shui Gray not the same enjoyable experience as CQ. Areas of poor quality, odd joins, parts with no twist and coarse fibers which had to be removed. Difficult to frog easily while settling on a suitable bind-off, fibers kept snarling. Very subtle blue-green cast in the gray which comes out when in close proximity to either of those colors. With skeins now having lesser yardage, results in fairly small shawl of this style (sz 9 ndl, 27"x60"). Despite issues, looks very nice, heavenly soft.

Perfect And cheerful for Prayer shawls given to cancer patients.

I am so in love with this yarn. Its beautiful, excellent quality and will make a great sweater for fall. Its surprisingly soft which is a plus. Not itchy at all. Will be ordering more. Only down side and its not a deal breaker is you have to be gentle if you have to frag your work because it can occassionally knot but its not like Unforgettable yarn. If you crochet a lot you will know what I mean. But overall this is a fantastic yarn.

I really like this yarn in general, all colors are very pretty, the 'sparkle' ones especially. I have also made a shawl/scarf from the regular 'shawl in a ball' rainbow-colored yarn that is nice too. This yarn is 'supposed' to be mostly thin but also includes some thicker strands which add texture to the finished product. All the other colors I've used did not have knotted-together strands of yarn scattered throughout the ball. This 'prism' color had over 8 of these knots (I lost count) and I needed to cut the yarn and go past the knot and start with the yarn again. Then there were extra 'ends' to weave in. Sometimes the 2 yarns were totally different so instead of a gradual 'self-layering' of 1 color to another, the change was abrupt - light green to dark blue, for example. I would recommend this yarn in spite of these issues as the finished products have been pretty and the small 'problem' areas are not noticeable unless I look for them.

Used it for dish cloths, donated to my church

I am no professional crocheter by any means, but I really enjoyed using this yarn. Yes, I did have to stop and untangle it and I did have to cut it once to get the know out, but it felt so soft and worked up so well. I purchased 2 skeins to make a baby blanket. The colors were darker than what was shown online. I think it is more jewel tone. A lot of greens, teals and dark purples. I would not use this color again for a baby, but it is a beautiful yarn. I have included the photo of the blanket. and a little hat. With 2 skeins I still had yarn left over, maybe enough for booties?

The colors of this yarn are beautiful and the texture is really light and soft.

I loved it so much, that I purchased a few more colors. I've made 5 or 6 shawls and shawlettes. The yardage some 400+ yards per ball makes a solid scarf, but I used a little more of another ball to complete the look I wanted. This still provided me enough of my remaining ball to make a baktus scarf. 2 balls = 2 shawls. Check please!The photos are from the finished virus shawl found on ravelry. This yarn is stunning and the photos don't do enough. I was in the blocking process - careful there, this has acrylic.

Made a scarf looks great

Me encanta la combinación de los colores y la textura y resistencia del estambre es excelente.

Easy to work with and looks so elegant

I haven't used this wool yet but first impressions are very good. It's soft, pretty and feels like a quality wool.

Diese Wolle habe ich schon des öfteren gekauft, allerdings nicht hier, bei woolware uk gibt es diese günstiger.Ich finde sie für 2-farbiges Brioche/Patent Strickstücke perfekt oder zum häkeln. Die Farbverläufe sind sehr schön und lang. Diese hatte iuch gekauft, weil ich sie mit einer nicht Glitzerversion der Wolle verstricken wollte, aber leider ist der Blauglitzerfaden mir doch zu sehr dominant, somit habe ich doch etwas verkauft, aber wenn das nicht stört liegt hier richtig, denn die Farben sind sehr schön abgestimmt, ich bin nur eben kein so großer Glammer-Fan.Bei den USA Dealern muß man sehr aufpassen, bei vielen Kommt noch Zoll drauf, weil die keine Rechnung sichtbar anbringen. Bei diesem Händler "Totally-Crafty USA" lief das zum ersten mal von 4ren ohne Probleme und Zoll, bei den anderen Dreien nicht, ich wollte deswegen schon nicht mehr bestellen und habe es nur getestet, aber der ist zu empfehlen.Die Wolle ist auch nicht weich oder Kuschelig, aber robust und doch fein gehalten. Sie wirkt verstrickt sehr "lebendig" und fließend.Sehr eng gestrickt finde ich sie nicht so schön aber als Brioche/Patent wirkt sie wunderbar luftig und edel.Dieser Händler "Totally-Crafty USA" kann man gut empfehlen und dies für mich zum erstenmal. Bei den anderen dreien aus den USA, die ich probiert hatte kam noch Zoll auf die Bestellung, die ich an der Türe dem Postboten entrichten mußte um das Päkchen zu erhalten. Somit hatte ich 3€ pro Knäul drauf gezahlt, weil die keine Rechnung beigegeben hatten. Die bekam ich nicht ersetzt, es wurde sich nur entschuldigt und Amazon war dafür nicht zuständig, zurückschicken hätte mich 12€ Porto gekostet.Also Totally-Crafty USA weiß wie man International verschickt, die anderen bisher nicht.
