Comments about Berroco Weekend:
I made vests for my two girls. Knit up beautifully. Nice stitch definition, great for a pattern and for simple garments. Very cost effective for kids items because of the large skein yardage - one skein per vest for a 1 and 4 year old. Be sure to wind into a ball as the yarn tangles easily.

Comments about Berroco Weekend:
I purchased this yarn through my LYS and through an online retailer. I bought it for the yarn content, both acrylic and cotton, and how it knitted up in the samples that I saw at the yarn store. The samples were really pretty with strong stitch definition. The colors available were very pretty. It has a lot of yardage as well. So, it is a great deal all around. You can't go wrong with this yarn or its chunky partner. I love it so much, I have purchased the Swimming Hole colorway, the Cornflower, the Phlox, and the Cerulean. There are some really gorgeous free pattern for this yarn on the Berroco web site.

I really liked working with this yarn and it is very comfortable against Summer skin! I have made three shrugs with it in Cornflower, Mushroom and Banana.
