I had been holding off on buying this until I found just the right project. I am making a Aurora Borealis inspired blanket. The colors I selected are vivid and the yarn is very soft. It's going to make a gorgeous blanket. I've only just started it and have found it to be very easy to work with.
I love Caron Simply Soft Yarn. I use to stalk up on it when it was on sale. I was bummed when I couldn't buy it anymore. Then I found you all. So I'm buying some to do blankets and get my stock down. It's great yarn.
I have been using Caron yarn for the past 9 years to make my custom design socks, this is the very best yarn for my creations. Thank you for this wonderful product.
Dealing with Mary Maxim for Canon, simply soft yarn has been an excellent experience. The price of each scan of yarn was reasonable. The multicolored yarns that I ordered are excellent for chemo caps that I crochet for John Peter Smith Hospital's volunteer division.
I have made several crocheted projects using Caron Simply Soft yarn. I love the feel for myself when I am crocheting. I make items for our church which donates them to hospital cancer patients, shut-ins and other fellow church members. The skeins are small yardage but I plan ahead when I am making a purchase.
I have many reasons making simply soft a favorite yarn. The color choices are amazing. Making it easy to find and coordinate colors to reuse a favorite pattern. I've used simply soft for many things. I'm making a baby blanket and found so many shades of blue, trying to pick only 3 was challenging. It's wonderful yarn!
Love this yarn. It is easy to work with and soft to the touch. I am working on my third blanket with this brand. The only drawback is that the twist of the yarn is quite loose, which means that it is easy for the crochet needle to pick up only 2 or 3 of the 4 strands. This is something crocheters might need to keep in mind, and the reason for 4 stars. It will be less of an issue with knitting. Otherwise, great value for the price.
I used to really love this yarn....the only one that I bought. But the last order I got, the yarn splits pretty badly....disappointed. Not sure that I would buy this brand again....faulty and expensive
Initially, I liked this yarn when I first started using it. I have made 6 afghans with it, and over time I have become disillusioned with it. It feels different in my hands when working with it over the past couple of years. It feels stiff and not soft anymore. I find the it splits easily which slows my project down. I also am disappointed in the consistency in its denseness. The strand will feel OK but then it will go to feeling very thin or to feeling very thick. One of my purchases was the "Ombre" and I must say this version of Simply Soft is much more pleasant to work with. I am disappointed though, in the smaller weight skeins in the ombre and darker colors, and the price of the yarn has actually become unaffordable for me. I also have had an issue with one batch of the Simply Soft with every skein having tied knots within, and sometimes more than one. I need to find a better quality truly soft yarn at a better price.
Perfectly good yarn, very soft and nice to work with, good results. 2 stars out of 5 because the Walmart prices on Caron Simply Soft are all OVER the place, some colors twice the price of others. Not sure how or why that's the case, but I think it's unacceptable and buy my yarn elsewhere whenever I can.
