860yd Gold Lurex Thread 3.52oz Shining Glitter Sparkle Metallic Yarn DIY Fancy Crochet Project String Knitting Sweater Scarf Accessory 3mm Thick Golden

Being a crocheter and a creative person this is very handy and is good for many things.

This is very bright and shiny. It is a great accent yarn.

First- this isn't "yarn" as in soft fibers spun together. It's has a plastic synthetic feel to it. I used it for crochet, and tried several different hooks with it. The "yarn" is sturdy, doesn't tangle easily, and doesn't split or frizz. The stitches are very distinct and it looks pretty cool! However, it is very rough on the hands when working with it. I definitely wouldn't make any garments with it. It would be good for other accessories (belts, bags, etc), to make lace trim or stitch on as trim, for decorations, and for other crafts.

This is perfect for making halos for angels I'm crocheting. It has just enough sparkle to show up without appearing cheap.

Yeah this isn't made for clothing. It's very rough and scratchy. I think it's better off for craft type purposes not for things you crochet to wear. The color is absolutely beautiful and spot on but the yarn softness is nonexistent.

This yarn is on the lighter weight and stretchy, but as for color its great for projects that you want an actual metallic gold color. It's not soft but easy to work with. Using a 3.5mm crochet hook but could probably use a smaller hook. I do love the way it sparkles+

Took some time to get used to a stiffer texture but this made super cute star ornaments. Will definitely see what else I can make with the leftover. Good amount of thread for the price.

Worked out great for my crochet project

This gold lurex yarn is as good as the more expensive brand name product, only much less expensive. The only downside is because it had to travel around the world (made in China, shipped to Britain via the USA) it was vaccume sealed to lessen the bulk. This means that the yarn is squashed very flat. I'm hoping it regains it's shape.
