“I wouldn’t even bother recommending a pattern for this yarn since I don’t really want you to use it for anything other than wall decor” 😭😭😭 never will I ever doubt your level of honesty after that
being the yarn price snob that I am...I added up all of these yarns and BEFORE shipping, $472.65...no ma'am, no...thank you Toni for taking one for the team!!! keep up the honest reviews ❤❤
Think about how much more yarn you can get for that money!
Taking one for the team 😭😭 she still alive!! Cup caffeine sponsors do matter!
No wonder she mentioned the bills,😭😭😭💀
Why is their yarn so ridiculously priced? Do they donate to charities? I don’t get it at all!
I can tell you that few yarns from them are worth the extra cost but Feeling Good Yarn IS worth it. She is right; it is a dream but it is not one that we can afford every day. A special project is worth it for this yarn.
@@annahill-dombrowski1473 1
Every time I see their ads the Instagram reel "why buy it for 6 dollars when you can make it yourself for 92?" Plays in my head 😂
My thoughts as well. 😀
🤣🤣
Probably because most of the cheap versions use slave labor. But your point still stands; many of these trendy yarn brands are marked up beyond what sustainable products should cost.
Ha!
A friend of mine always knits with the crazy sexy wool and everything she makes is GAWJUS but gets ruined by wear! Thank you for the honest review Toni!
id love to see a "budget yarn" review video focusing on synthetic fibers! im unemployed and cant use animal fibers and cotton is either hard to find or a bit pricey. my personal favorite is paintbox but id like to try new brands!
Have you looked into drops from garnstudio? They're reasonably priced, even the natural fibers.
Id also recomment Toni's video about the drop yarns! They aren't more expensive than synthetic fibers but much better and more sustainable!
If you’re in the US or Canada, I definitely suggest looking into knitpicks yarns. Their acrylic yarns are some of the softest I’ve found and their plant fiber yarns are affordable and high quality. They’re also almost always running a sale on something, whether it be certain yarns or tools.
If you live in America then sign up for premier brand emails and you will get notifications of sales. They always have free shipping over a certain amount (which they lower at certain times of the year)
They do lots of sales. I don’t pay more than 50 cents an ounce for acrylic
Also you can go in on an order with someone too ❤️
Online, check out Ice yarns closeout section - they are based in Turkey and have a lot of yarns that are natural fiber blended with acrylic, which brings the price down, and their closeout section sometimes has killer deals - for example they have their winter colors of their 50/50 wool/acrylic worsted at $1.75 for 100g/150m right now
I also recommend hitting up the thrift stores. Check if your area has an art/craft supply exchange or a crafters swap meet (or organize one if there isn't one yet! Everyone meets up to swap their stashes). Overstock stores like Big Lots sometimes have yarn as well.
If Wool and the Gang are aiming for the younger generation then these youngers have a helluva lot more $$$ than I do!
me in my mid 20s, wondering which younger generation that wool & the gang is marketing to 😭 😂
me, a 28-yo with a master's degree who can't afford this yarn, wondering when yarn companies marketing sustainable yarn will bother making their products accessible to working-class knitters of any age.
honestly we don’t, i think wool and the gang aims themself at the younger fiber artist influencers and send it to them for free, the rest of us can’t afford them lol
@@lavenderafterglow just turned 20 and same here!! there is absolutely no way that my two jobs working self is going to buy any of these yarns with my own money 😮💨
Yeah no. Craftsmart for us 😂😂😂😂😂
I think a lot of the attraction of WATG is their aesthetic - it appeals past the yarn itself - the font, the logo, the packaging, the social media. I do feel that is where this brand appeals - but probably not to somebody like me who just doesn't feel that they can justify the price. Some of your swatches were a delight to look at. Thanks for these videos you save us crafters ££!
Personally I look forward to your yarn snob reviews so make them as long and as often as you like 😁
Yes, the longer the better!
Oh wow. I'm not in a place in life to spend that kind of money on any of their yarns, but I learn so much about the various fibers and their qualities by watching your reviews. Glad to see The Yarn Snob back and hope you've got more reviews coming soon!!
I liked several of the yarns, and appreciate that this company works to make their yarn more environmentally safe (and yes, this costs money, I get that) but have been an avid knitter for years and I know my yarn. This yarn, like you mentioned on quite a few of them, were very nice yarns, but can also be found at equal quality for a much, much better price, even from high end yarn companies. There was nothing so unique or special about them that I couldn’t easily substitute a less expensive/same quality/same fiber yarn for. For this reason, I wouldn’t purchase their yarns. I tend to make sweaters and socks…the sweaters especially are a big time and money investment for a quality merino, for example, and when I’m buying a sweater quantity of yarn, spending 20 to 25% more becomes a very significant price difference, for essentially the same product. That being said, I wanted to thank you for your great and honest reviews, and all of your videos that I enjoy watching. You may say, “you said you were a knitter, I’m a crochet channel,” and that’s true. I do know how to crochet, but prefer knitting, to each their own. But, I still love to see what can be made, and reviews on yarn. Also, I have never done Tunisian crochet…and you have me sold on it. I’m going to get some hooks and give it a try. I absolutely love how the Tunisian stitches look, as well as the fabric they produce…looking forward to learning something new! Thanks, Toni!
Don't feel bad about being a knitter enjoying crochet videos. I'm a crocheter who loves the Fruity Knitting podcast. I've learned so much about fiber, garment construction, design, and fiber careers and resources. They also feature crochet designers occasionally. We can all learn from each other.
@@kayjeanne8346 Absolutely!!! I do crochet a few things from time to time (no matter what hooks I use, it gives me tendinitis in my forearm) but prefer knitting. It think being a yarn enthusiast is perhaps a better term for watching videos doing a craft you don’t always do! You are so correct in the importance of learning about the fiber construction, how the yarn will work up, last, lay and hang. How to substitute yarns and understand how to do this well. How to know how to pick yarns that will work for different projects, and, like great reviews from Toni, just how good or bad the yarn is. Toni also gives me tons of ideas for how to put colors together. She has such a great sense for color combinations (I have no skills in this area) and she comes up with beautiful combinations that I never would have considered! Thanks, Toni!! From a “Yarn Enthusiast” 😁
As I was walking through Joann’s yesterday seeing new yarns, I thought to myself “I hope Toni is doing a yarn snob video soon.” And lo and behold, YOU DID! This was perfect for my car ride. I hope to try shiny happy cotton this summer!
I’m actually excited about this! I don’t get the expensive price of these yarns. I got their tape yarn in a kit to crochet a bag a year or two ago and was really disappointed by the pattern and the yarn. I hated working with this yarn, and the bag ended up super heavy and unusable.
I know they’re really popular amongst younger trendy knitters because they make that super bulky yarn, but oh god the price. I could always find great equivalents for much cheaper. They have amazing colors tho, for someone like me who loves bright colored yarn, it’s hard to find good dupes.
I find sometimes things are popular not because they’re good products but because of the social push
This is an expensive line. Definitely not interested unless I find it deeply discounted.
I did find some of their hats and scarf kits at a Habitat Home Store for a *heavy* discount! I agree it’s way overpriced.
@@jennyg6881 I really appreciate the review. Even though I can usually tell if someone is flogging something for a company or is completely independent in their review of yarn (like bagoday), it is still helpful to see different takes on these products. We all like different things for different reasons.
Black Friday is pretty good on the site
I use their yarns and either go for a kit excluding accessories or subscribe to their email list. They run sales often. Today they have 25-30% off for Memorial Day.
Same!
I received some Shiny Happy Cotton as a gift along with a pattern for the Rose Cardigan. I loved working with this cotton. As you stated it is very soft and easy to work with. The cardigan has nice drape and is comfortable to wear. Overall very happy with this yarn! I do wish their yarn was not so expensive however. Great review!
binge-watching yarn snob reviews while crocheting is one of my favorite past times. Though it does tempt my credit card
I truly appreciate this review, I've always been curious about these guys and why their prices were so high. This review definitely helped me decide that these prices just don't add up. $12.50 for cotton yarn that has just a little more than Sugarn 'n Cream is absurdly high. That cotton would have to wash my dishes by itself for me to consider making dishcloths or the like out of it! XD
They’re high because they’re mainly sustainable wools.
The blush you’re wearing makes you look RADIANT!! Love it. Beautiful.
Thank you for being so honest about the Crazy Sexy Wool, everyone hypes it up so much. I've never used it because it didn't seem worth the money to me, so thank you for pointing out the flaws that no one talks about!! :D
I have a balloon business and when I saw the ra-ra-raffia that reminded me the time I took a spool of balloon ribbon and crocheted with it. It looks just like it!
I love window shopping with you.
I turned this on in the background of my day because I love your pace, word choice, and the sound of your voice. You give me cozy crochet and drink tea with friends vibes. Thank you!
I love your videos so much! I just put this on the tv in the living room and caught my husband completely engaged in the video! Very enjoyable content even for someone who doesn’t crochet themselves! ♥️
I do love the cotton yarn 🧶..you are so on the money with that one …however yes very very pricey…I so wanted to try others but I had sticker shock ..thank Toni ..love you !!!
Toni…your videos are a shot of pure serotonin. This is my favorite series of yours, as someone who mostly knits but dabbles in crochet. (I’ll admit that I picked up and fell in love with Tunisian crochet though because of you!)
These yarns look SO COOL, and I love that your reviews include swatches with different stitches as well as pattern suggestions--it makes it so much easier to visualize how a cool-but-funky yarn might work up
Thank you for reviewing these yarns and being so honest! It’s great to see both the good and bad points to each type and hear what type of hooks work best. You spend the money so we don’t make mistakes!
Shiny Happy Cotton is MY FAVE. It's making super cute hexagons.
Loved this! Tried many of these yarns; for knitting though. Very interesting to hear how they can act so differently w crochet. WATG def helped energize my knitting journey, but I always bought on sale. Now a few years into knitting and I pass on their fibers because I know I can find something comparable elsewhere for a fraction of the cost. I do have to say that their colorways are some of the best and that’s part of their appeal to me even still.
Yes I found this interesting too! And I also agree with your other points haha. Great minds...
Thank you for talking about the hook type and why between them and the fiber reviews. Really glad to see yarn snob reviews back!
perfect timing, my bid won Shiny Happy Cotton at Auction and although I haven't picked it up yet I was curious about it. I got it for a huge steal, 9 100g balls for less than the price of one, and prices would be even higher in Canada so I really lucked out. As per your review, I know I'll be very happy with my win. thank you :)
On point with the Crazy Sexy Wool. My very first knitting project last November as a beginner was a throw with that yarn. It’s super fuzzy now!
I really enjoy your interesting and informative videos. This one was no exception. I'm really a knitter - though I do crochet an occasional blanket - and your assessment of the yarns was really helpful. I can see why some of the yarns would be great for knitting over crochet and vice versa as well as those I would avoid completely. So useful when it comes to choosing a more luxurious (and probably pricier) yarn online. Thank you for trying them out. Great job. 😍
Omg I love the way you talk about yarn! Giving me so much vocab I didn't realize i was missing and vocalizing so many thoughts I've struggled to articulate! New favorite creator!
I love your energy, and watching your videos just makes me want to crochet! I love wool yarn so much thanks to you, which is a surprise because I always found that wool coats and shirts made me itchy, but it feels great to work with. I just can't get enough of the incredible colors and textures, the yarns on the market today are BEAUTIFUL!
Girl I just love your yarn snob videos. Your wording is so cool. Thanks for the giggles and for the reviews!!!
I always watch everything all the way thru, usually while I’m crocheting so a longer video just means more hook time 🙂 thanks for your honesty & for the little tips about each one like the best hook material
I have been a knitter for 40+ years… but I learned how to crochet from your tutorials! Thank you so much Toni! Your teaching style is the way that works for me! Your instructions have resulted in straight edges which was the bane of my existence🤦🏻♀️I bought a couple of Wool And The Gang kits about 3 years ago and enjoyed it very much. My favorite yarn has to be the cotton Aran weight. I used it for a crochet blanket and a shawl that had an amazing drape. I have a slight problem with buying new yarns online. It’s hard to know the way it feels while working with it. It’s also hard to really know what the textures feel like and the colors look in person. Your review was great because it was really informative. Great for ppl who haven’t worked with it yet. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and your creative ideas! Your the best❤️ I am a self professed yarn snob and addict myself, so I get where you are coming from, lol!
I love looking at these yarns you gave good demonstration for each. I can't make decision because I knew to the gang.💝🙏
thank you for your honest reveiw . I have learned so much from your channel. Tunisian crochet helped me through lock down. You are inspiring and fun. I can always find something new whenever I watch you. Thanks so much .
I adore your videos and your calm yet positive energetic vibes. I am always so excited when I see a new video from you and I have adored making all of the patterns that I have tried from your line. Thank you for all you do and please keep up the amazing work.
You do inspire all of us. I absolutely love your energy. Much much love & be blessed
thank you for giving such an honest and in depth review on this companies yarn-- ive been wanting to check out their yarns, but afraid to spend the money on em! def here for the shiny happy cotton!
I love your yarn snob reviews and appreciate that you always keep it real with us!
The prices of the Wool and the Gang yarns have always scared me off of buying any... there's no way I could justify spending $30 CAD per skein 🥴
I would love to see a part 2! I feel like WATG is always such an obvious brand, and I love that we stop and question it as crocheters
Love love love your yarn snob reviews! I love that you swatch and give hook and project recommendations. I'm a yarn fanatic and it does my heart (and overflowing stash) good to get practical help with choosing online yarns. Thank you thank you thank you! ♥️
You are so beautiful so cheerful. I get so happy watching. The first video I saw and love was your Tunisian crochet shawl for beginners. I haven't had a chance to try it yet.
This Wool and the Gang yarn review was spectacular! Presented in a professional, masterly, skillful brilliant way, with just enough of humor, that makes you a genius, wizard, connoisseur and expert of yarn . Heck, your descriptions were downright poetic-like!!
Video was definitely not too long for me, This is only the 2nd of your yarn reviews that I have viewed. Same remarks go for the
other one, also. Gonna check your site to see if there are others for me to view.
Wow! You are good...truly a treasure to the game of crochet..
I am getting in trouble, trying to listen and learn.. love the spirit and your enthusiasm. I am In heaven for yarn. 🧶🧶🧶💖💖🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Crazy sexy yarn would be great for a project you intend to felt- make it nearly twice as big as you need and then wash vigorously, block it while drying. It creates a really unique material.
I love your closet! It's soo organized and attractive. I've been so depressed and i love your personality....I'm a survivor of domestic violence and I don't feel so alone anymore...Love Tracey Capone
I’m always eyeing up this brand but with drops offering so many similar alternatives for a fraction of the cost, I can’t justify it. Would love to see you review knitting for olive yarns! They’re currently super popular within the knitting community but I’d love to hear your thoughts on in for crochet
I love the Rock N Roll themes throughout 😁
Love your yarn snob review videos! I have learned so much from these videos that has truly helped my craft! Thank you!
AH! Subscribing!! The way you explain yarn makes so much sense, and as a fellow crochet nerd I really appreciate the quality of your content!
Looking amazing today, Toni. Happy weekend! Love your yarn snob reviews. My favorite thing to watch on your channel!
I love love love your snob reviews!! They are what got me interested in your videos!! Thank you for keeping them around!! Looking forward to your next video!! Have a safe memorial day weekend!
I am Definitely ami going to buy Alpachino Merino and Shiny Happy Cotton today thanks to your comments. The ease of your stitches and finished look make it the perfect choice for my beginner projects. Love your videos so much. Thank you
I love the longer video! I’m so glad you talked about Crazy Sexy Wool because I have loved the look of some peoples projects in the past and couldn’t convince myself to spend the money. Now I’m glad I didn’t! I’m really not sure what good roving is for except for wall hangings like you said.
This show is my birthday treat ! Thank you for another awesome yarn review.
Shiny Happy Cotton would be my choice. Toni, as always you have come through again with this yarn snob review. Thank you!
So much useful information. Thanks for the review complete with swatches and pattern suggestions.
I just adore your color choices!! The mustard, pink and pale greeny blue... so lovely. Looking forward to your next yarn review!
We have this yarn in the uk and it’s super expensive. I just want to say how much I enjoy your videos. I’m a knitter at heart but thanks to your videos I’m learning crochet and Tunisian crochet.
Thank u Toni so much I’m fairly new to crochet and I love it. U have opened my eyes and learning experiences to a whole new level . Ur an amazing teacher and so fair to the different yarn and accessories u review. God bless u always and thank u again I’m so pumped now to get more into it. Wow
years and years ago during a black friday sale I splurged and bought myself a few skeins from wool and the gang and ever since I've been too nervous to use them because of the price LOL. However, that shiny happy cotton TRULY is the softest cotton yarn I've ever felt and it's incredible.
I love your channel. So informative and you make it fun for this beginner! Thank you!❤
Great review as usual! Thank you so much for this! Love it!
I appreciated your thorough and thoughtful review! I was curious about this yarn because of the pretty packaging and some of the UA-cam vids they've been posting. I especially appreciated that rub test you did. I wouldn't have thought of that as something to consider for a yarn I'm choosing. Thanks again!
your energy always brightens my day :) thank you for a great video
I like the shiny happy cotton because it’s light and wears well even with hard use! The other stuff is kind of too expensive for what it is. I have local alpaca and merino options that are better, more affordable, and I know the farms and mills they are coming from. The sheep and alpaca have lots of space and happy lives and you can visit them!
Thank you for the review , I’ve had my eyes on wool and the Gang yarns for quite a while but with the prices I was afraid to buy them just to find out the yarn is trash . ……. Great review.
Great video. You have such a talent for making things sound so clear and fun. love,hugs,prayers
Thanks so much for this! I have been wondering about their products as well as the We Are Knitters products too. Both seem to be the same but I have yet to see any of their products in person and none of my friends have tried their yarns to tell me their thoughts. Your review videos are absolutely AWESOME! You always answer questions looming in the back of my mind. Thank you!
I enjoy all the kinds of yarns that is out there.
Thank you for this review!! I’ve always been super interested in this brand but it’s so expensive especially for the yardage. Really appreciate it.
Bright Cellars is a fun experience! Great sponsor. 👍🏻
I think your videos - and you! are wonderful! I am a knitter, not quite ready to give crochet a try and yet I love your videos. 🌺
Be subscriber and crocheter here! I am sooooo excited to get some snacks and a cozy warm beverage and binge your yarn snob reviews! Your energy is so bright and contagious and I love the way you describe your experience of testing the yarns and I love watching you make your swatches. The yarn you gave the 10/10, I can’t remember the name, that swatch and color combo made me so happy! Absolutely stunning! I’m really excited to check out some of your glorious patterns as well. So happy to have found your channel! 💕💕💕
Thank you for the review of the wool and the gang yarns. I will wait for a sale and try the cotton yarn. Have a nice weekend.
Thank you for making this, it was great info!
the crazy sexy wool colors popped but god i cannot imagine buying that way expensive yarn only for whatever i make to fuzz and felt up, loved that gold and hot hot pink tho
Love the shiny happy cotton cuz I use that to make some luxury dishcloths & hand towels for my grandma
really appreciate your honest reviews!
Thank you so much. I was soo close to buying the alpachino merino because I wanted a more luxury bulky weight yarn to make a scarf with for a gift and after hearing the care instructions I decided against it
Hi Toni can I honestly say I was put off many off your yarn snob videos by the thumb nail because you were pulling a face in many and took me finding one of your other videos to realise it was a joke because yoi are always smiling. 😂😂
Phew! Glad I watched this before hitting that purchase button. You saved me lots of pennies.
Now about that new Color Theory line from Lion Brand…thoughts?
I love crocheting 🧶 butttt babyyyyy this to rich for my pockets!!! I appreciate your review my crochet queen 👑 Maybe when found on sale 😉🤘🏾
I love watching your videos as I crochet! Atm i'm working on a strawberry inspired vest!
The shiny happy cotton is one of the best I’ve found for amigurumi
Thanks for sharing...beautiful yarn.
Wool and the Gang was one of the first yarn companies I found when I started crocheting. Their video tutorials are for the most part fantastic and helped me to learn crochet (although not as clear and well done as yours Toni!). I found their yarn to be expensive but being a beginning crocheter, I didn't know what actually distinguished a "good" yarn from those that aren't worth the money. I really appreciate your honest reviews as well as trying to find both the pros and cons with each yarn type.
I love watching your reviews! It feels like being in an intimate crafting conversation. Great reviews!! Even if I'm knitting with recycled no-name weaving wool while watching XD
Thank you for your review! Love your videos!
I love the patterns that you suggested with the yarns. I can't afford them. But there were some interesting ones, I like the cotton.
Excellent review, thanks so much!
Crocheting while letting playlist play and came upon this older video.
Watching your videos I think I’ve come to the realization that I too may be a yarn snob lol. I am so very much like you when it comes to yarn choices. Well at least I think you have excellent tastes in your yarn choices and selections.
Thanks again for another great yarn review. I purchased crazy sexy wool on clearance from Joann's a few years ago but couldn't find a pattern that I liked for it. Started a simple scarf but after your review on how it wears, going use this yarn for some decorative pillows😂😂😂. Will work up quickly, look very modern and will keep its shape.
Shiny Happy Cotton was one of the first yarns I worked with and I do like it a lot. Really soft and smooth.
I’m so glad you did this review! I’ve hesitated to buy due to the price, but you may have persuaded me to try that cotton or Tina tape.
What a fun video, Toni! Thank you for taking that financial hit so we know what to buy and what to leave on the shelf. I love your Lamia Wrap pattern; it'll be awhile until I can get to it, but get to it, I will! Thanks again for a great video. 💛
