Comments about Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic:
I have been knitting Gary Kennedy Intasia sweaters for my grandsons. The patterns actually call for wool but as the boys live in Southern California the Cotton Classic works great.
The stitch and color definition is terrific as is the color selection.

Comments about Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic:
This is my go-to yarn for any & all baby projects. One blanket I made for a friend's daughter became her daycare blanket, so it was washed & dried every week and held up beautifully. Super soft, decent yardage, amazing colors...can't say enough good things about this yarn.

Comments about Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic:
A size 4 child's ruffled dress was so heavy that I changed my plans to knit one for an older child.
Love the body, the drape of the garments made with this yarn, other than that as with all cotton, the ends have a way of finding their way out, no matter how carefully woven in, and poking through.

Comments about Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic:
Cotton classic is just that -- "classic" -- and very cotton -- don't use for hats or gloves, or anything that you do not want to grow. But if you love big, big sweaters, and scarves that don't itch, it is absolutely the best. Gorgeous colors that mostly match from dye lot to dye lot. And your price was the lowest I've ever found.

Comments about Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic:
Was skeptical about purchasing cotton yarn again after being disappointed by another brand. This brand works up quickly and well. Doesn't have the tension issue I was disgusted by with the other brand. Blocks beautifully.
