The soft hand and complex colors will produce beautiful sweaters, blankets and accessories. The 9 color combinations include something for everyone in the family.

• 100% Acrylic.
• 3.5 oz/ 100 g, 166 yds/151 m.

• Machine wash, lay flat to dry
• Crochet gauge, I-9 (5.5mm) hook: 17 sc & 22 rows = 4” (10.2cm).
• Knit gauge in st st, US 9 (5.5mm) needles: 16 sts & 24 rows = 4” (10.2cm).

 The color combinations include something for everyone in the family. 
Care: hand wash dry flat do not bleach do not iron do not dry clean. "


This is a very soft, thick #4 weight worsted yarn, it is thicker than Red Heart.  
I am also a spinner and this yarn reminded me of hand spun yarn with slight changes in thickness throughout.  There were several spots that were "overspun" and other spots that weren't spun enough. I had to cut out a few large sections of the yarn because it was already fuzzy and looked like it had been through a couple of washes, but was able to hand twist it enough to use for the seams.

The Pattern I used it on is the Short Mesh Vest in a size medium.  My gauge came out correct with a slightly tighter tension than I use with Red Heart or other #4 weight yarns similar to Red Heart.  This created a stiffer feel in the stitches, but still very soft.

This vest used about 4 1/2 skeins, so about 747 yards for a size medium.

Overall, I really like the feel of this acrylic yarn and enjoyed working with it and believe it would be perfect for a garment that needs some extra thickness without having to use a bulky yarn.

Here are some of my patterns that were published with Annie's Attic last year.  It has been such a great experience working with them.

Crochet Spring Dress

Spring Dress

I used Loops & Threads "Woolike" which is a #1 fine fingering yarn that acts more like a #2 fingering weight yarn because of it's texture. It gave this dress a light and airy feel and look.

My daughter IS wearing something under it... lol. She has a tank dress under it and I asked her to pick the tank top up a bit to show off the bottom. It kinda bunched up under the dress.

This pattern uses basic stitches

chain

sc

dc

Finished length is about 45 inches, but can be easily adjusted shorter or longer

You can also easily adjust the length of the sleeves if you prefer longer sleeves

Pattern includes written instructions for the complete dress and a graph for the pineapple section for those that love graphs

Pattern includes sizes Small to 6X
