Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
I purchased this yarn to knit my first illusion piece, and it did the job well. It was very soft with great stitch definition. The price is excellent for the quality. I would definitely purchase again, and I can imagine this being lovely for baby items.
My only complaints would be that it splits VERY easily (especially if you have to tink anything back) and it gets a bit fuzzy sometimes, and both of those things make it near impossible to get a knot or tangle sorted out. It's also slippery, but no more so than other nylon/acrylic yarns. I would strongly recommend rewinding the ball using a yarn winder even though it's technically already center-pull. Once you get near the end, it becomes a tangled mess.

Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
This yarn is very soft and smooth. Easy to knit with and very comfortable to wear. I am allergic to wool, so I'm always looking for a good yarn. This is good for adults with sensitive skin and kids, too.

I LOVE this product for baby items. They're soft and durable and new moms love the items. Easy care.
It does have a tendency to split if you must unravel but promptly returns to it's original ply.
Service and delivery comments:
GREAT service as always. Quick delivery.

Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
I am making a sweater for my grandson and I just love it - it really shows the stitch definition and it is so soft - he could wear it with no teeshirt on and it wouldn't irritate his skin. I just love it - I love it so much I am ordering some more to make sweaters for my other grandkids because they also like how soft it is - my oldest grandchild (10 yo) keeps rubbing it against her cheek because "it is just so soft".

Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
I knit a beaded scarf and loved the
durability. The beads slid easily and did not fray the yarn.

Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
Great stitch definition and tons of colors. For acrylic it's incredibly soft and the price can't be beat!! Highly recommended.
Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
I used this to make a crocheted square motif afghan in primary rainbow colors for a preemie baby who was born at only 24 weeks. I needed a yarn that would be soft and also could be washed with no problems. This yarn fit the bill perfectly, and got softer as I worked with it. Beautiful stitch definition. I do wish there was a kelly green selection, but the lime green color fit in nicely. The primary blue is absolutely gorgeous, and is truly that crayon primary blue color that I wanted! Works up great with a size G crochet hook. The only drawback with this yarn was that I found a knotted join in each and every skein that I had to cut out and join the yarn in inconvenient places.
Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
Colors are rich and deep. the yarn knits up easily and fast. This yarn improve with washing and drying. I 'abused' my swatch by washing in hot water and throwing in the dryer with jeans. Beautiful and practical.
Comments about Berroco Comfort DK:
i tried a lot of yarns but this is the best. Easy to work, does not change after wash, even gets better, and so soft on skin, pleasure to wear.
