Mainstays Soft Velvety Yarn, 315 yd, Light Blue, 100% Polyester

I like the Magenta Purple color, I would say it's a Raspberry color. I'm crocheting a lap blanket for myself. Its a pretty color and easy to work with. I've bought several of mainstays velvet yarn. It's a good value also. I recommend for scarves or blankets.

This is a beautiful blue (even better than shown), so I’ve ordered 2 more to finish a larger blanket. It looks excellent by itself or paired with true white. I’m also buying a set of gray %26 white for a second blanket. I originally purchased this yarn for its softness…I’d lost my hair due to chemo and all the hats I’d tried irritated my skin. So, I made a few hats out of this yarn and bingo…no more itchy head. I then made a few more and passed them out to some of my “chemo friends”…they were a hit. One small challenge: Items made with this yarn run warm, so try before you buy/make a lot of stuff with it. I hope you enjoy the cozy softness from this yarn!

I absolutely love this yarn. It doesn’t fuzz up and fall apart like a lot of chenille or polyester yarns like this. I just wish it was available in more colors than offered online or in store. It would be awesome to have bright colors and pastels.

Love this yarn it quickly became one of my good cheap top yarns! Did amazing with pilling and very good with magic rings as well! LOVE THIS WILL BUY MORE! Great for beginners!

For velvety yarn this yarn glides so smoothly! I’ve made stuffed animals, clothing items and blankets with it. I’ve tried velvety yarns from other craft stores such as hobby lobby, and Michael’s and they have more color options but their yarn does not compare to how soft Walmarts is.

Wonderful yarn. I am crocheting an afghan. It is soft and easy to use. It is a nice weight to keep you warm. I wish they had more colors.

Very nice and soft yarn that doesn't shed. I love the yardage too! Waiting for more colors to be in stock again🙏😉

The color is really nice. The yarn seems to be of good quality. I have not used it yet hoping there are not factory knots.

I love this velvet chenille yarn. I use it to make amigurumi and scrunchies. I find it comparable to Bernat Velvet and Juicy Couture Luxe Velour/Cuddle Craft Velvet, but a much better value per yard.

Yarn is as velvety soft as described. Lovely feel, but, like chenille, it sheds fluff easily. It also breaks easily if too much strength is applied. Was dismayed that every skein has a knot, as if the yarn broke when it was being wound. Also had a hard time finding the beginning end.
