HOMBYS Chunky Tie Dye Mix Chenille Yarn for Hand Knitting, Super Bulky Jumbo Yarn for Crocheting, 3/4" Thick Soft Plush Yarn for Blankets, 8 Skein Pack (26 yds / 7.5 oz Each) Mint, Teal, Green

This yarn is terrific. Not only is it all of the above, but this yarn is CLEAN (NO fuzz], machine washable, and easy to use. I bought 24 skeins, probably a lot more than I needed! I am basically a newbie to knitting. I have made a few projects on a loom, have NEVER used knitting needles, and have never crocheted. (I'm an accomplished quilter.) I am hand knitting/finger knitting this project. I have chosen a simple Knit 1 Purl 1. There is no back side with this pattern . I was worried that the pattern of my knitting wouldn't be visible with this chenille and the inherent lack of perfection with hand knitting. No fears, the pattern shows nicely. I am a happy knotting knitter! Guage: My width is much larger than I intended. Unfortunately, I didn't plan adequately, watched a video that suggested to start with 45 stitches, and I started with about 40. My width is about 60 inches. That's a HUGE Throw! I have just started my 7th skein, and the length of my project is currently from my armpit to the end of my palm. I'm about 60 inches tall. It is approximately 20 inches long so far. Shipping: This yarn was smashed! It was sealed (not vacuum packed) in a huge plastic bag and then further constrained in a cardboard box that was smaller than the volume of the yarn. Indeed, it was SMASHED. NO WORRIES though. I opened it shortly after it arrived, and as you can see in the pics, it seems as plush as it ever could have been. Despite time to figure out how to finger knit, watch a video, rip multiple times before I really got the hang of this, I have only about 5 hours in this project so far. I am now familiar, less likely to make mistakes, and rather fast. It's all a joy from here on out! Who is this yarn NOT for? This yarn is too thick to use on an infinity loom, or most commercial looms. Looms made for this chunky yarn are generally DIY or expensive. This yarn is also NOT for one who wants near factory perfection in their stitches (unless you use a loom.) My project, like lumpy homemade mashed potatoes, has homespun charm that shows imperfection. It's lumpy, loveable, and perfectly matched to the texture of the chenille! Based on all of the above, the yarn is also very economical--its value probably cannot be surpassed! I would be pleased to buy this yarn again and again! (Slightly pre-tariffs) Happy stitching!

The color accuracy was on point! Exactly how it was in the picture. Super soft yarn, makes a great blanket! Hard to crochet with though since it is so big, but I just "arm knit" and I find it fun. Pretty durable, but if you really tried you could rip it, as with most yarns. The yarn quality is great! It is also nice and warm. I made a blanket with super wide stitches since yk, I used my arms. But that thing STILL insulated me by itself and paired with another blanket. So many possibilities! I definitely recommend knitting with this, as crocheting with it is very hard but that is not the producers fault, its just how big the yarn is.

This product was everything described and more. There were no knots, no defects and was the easiest chunky yarn I’ve worked with so far. The colors were beautiful and my blanket came out so soft. Can’t wait to try this in another color combo.

This yarn is perfect for making blankets! It’s so soft and fluffy, and the chenille texture makes it feel extra warm and cozy. The finished blanket has a nice weight to it because the yarn itself has some heft, which makes it feel high quality and comforting. The color is beautiful and makes the blanket look especially cute for kids. I’m really happy with how it turned out and would definitely use this yarn again for future projects!

The amount of yarn is very different from the chunky yarn at Michael’s and Hobby Lobby. The quality is soft enough and the finished product is as nice as the “other” brands but you just need more of it.

This is my third order of Hombys yarn. I love the price for 8 skeins. I don’t love how the yarn comes vacuum sealed but I understand why they do it. You just have to get it out and let it sit for a bit to fluff up. I wait about a week. I think they make perfect blankets! It’s thinner than hobby lobby chunky yarn but it’s still gorgeous & again, very good price!

I made this for a senior citizen's birthday and she loves it. The yarn is very good quality with minimal shedding. #10 grade is perfect to work with. It's thick and fluffy so it doesn't leave big gaps.

It’s very soft and easy to knit with.

Arrived as described & very well packaged. Recommend.

Needs fluffing up when arrives as very flat
