    I used to crochet with acrylic yarn, but I'm loving Hobbi friends cotton yarn right now.
    I still use my acrylic yarn stash to make blankets and for amigurumi I'm using the cotton yarns.
    It was very satisfying to wach you organise your yarn, you never know how much yarn you have until you try to organize it. :D

    I live in the US and I've never used any of those yarns but the Alba looks lovely. Amigurumi are my favorite things to make. They bring such joy to people! That's for sharing. Warm wishes from the state of Georgia.

    Hi! I love how it all turned out in the end, so satisfying to see all the yarns organized by colour 🤩 I don't really have a favourite yarn yet. I usually buy whatever is on sale on Hobbii that fits the project I plan to do 🙈 Lately it has mostly been Rainbow cotton and Friends cotton.

I'm also travelling to Iceland soon and am looking forward to picking up some Icelandic wool from the Handknitting Association with which to make Amigurumi. ❤

    seeing as I have always been using acrylic, broke student and so on xD I actually started using the Paintbox cotton Aran for shirts recently and I really like the way the cotton yarn feels, might try some different cotton yarn/cotton blends in the future :D

    • @garnknuten
      @garnknuten  2 місяці тому

      I understand, at the end of the day, it's more important that we're creative with the materials and tools that we can afford at this point in life than not doing anything at all. 😊 If you like acrylic you might like some of the fluffy Sandnes wool yarns like Poppy. 😀

    Went to pull out yarn for my next project and was overwhelmed by all the charity yarn I have right now piled up. Took multiple attempts too as the first two I pulled would not work with the dress I have. Ended up settling on Coboo in white. But I need to also jump into charity blankets again and work down the pile in the closet.

Cotton, acryl and cotton/acryl blend I can keep because I use those all the time for amigurumi depending for who and what I make.

  • @Alice-by2mf
    @Alice-by2mf 2 місяці тому

    I usually knit a lot of clothes and wearables so I prefer to knit with natural fibers such as cotton, wool, and alpaca. Yarn, especially natural fibers however gets expensive very quickly so I like to pick out a project first and then pick out my yarn. I also tend to gravitate towards buying 1kg cone yarn as it tends to be more budget friendly.

    • @garnknuten
      @garnknuten  2 місяці тому
