The Most-Reviewed Yarns of August 2026

I am planning to crochet a scarf with this yarn. It is so soft and squishy, and it comes in so many beautiful colors! It feels so luxurious to crochet with!

“Beautiful yarn for gifting”

I buy this yarn all the time. The colors are rich and it holds its shape well after washing. It’s soft enough to wear right next to your skin. I make cowls that protect my son's neck and are long enough to pull up and cover his nose and mouth when it’s cold. I make shawls and scarves for Christmas presents for family and friends. I give them away as fast as I make them.

“Beautiful colors and easy to use”

I used it to make a slip stitch blanket. It is very easy to use. I like watching the colors interplay with each other. I gave it to my sister, so no photo unfortunately.

“Great yarn at a great price.”

The socks I make with Heritage yarn are long lasting. I have worn them for years and still have no holes. The yarn feels soft and is easy to knit with. It doesn’t split.

“Versatile yarn with great colors”

I use Cascade Yarns in a variety of my knitting projects. I love it for the colors they offer. I use a lot of the Heritage Yarn in shawls, scarves, socks, and mittens. I use it for mittens and shawls. I am slowly getting back into knitting socks and scarves.

I love the perfect color match. Winding was smooth—no glitches. I would purchase again for heel & toes of socks.

“Softer than I expected, beautiful colors, a satisfying knit”

This is my first time knitting with cotton yarn, and I’m surprised to find how much I really love it. I expected it to feel like a washrag. The fabric it creates is much softer and more supple than I had anticipated. The colors are beautifully saturated and the arm gives good stitch definition. Can’t wait to wear the tank top I’m knitting.

“Versatile and easy to use”

I love cotton yarn. This yarn doesn’t split. I use it for many different projects, including baby blankets, origami, market bags, ladies tops, and baby toys. Shaping and stuffing was so easy. All of my projects turn out spectacular. The yarn is very versatile.

I'm using it for summer sweaters. It is lightweight and washable. It washes beautifully. The yarn gets even softer.

“Versatile and soft yarn”

I have used this yarn before and love knitting with the Peruvian wool. This yarn has been a go-to because of all of the color options available. I use it for scarves, shawls, and blankets. The pieces I knit always feel so soft and the yarn wears well.

“Enjoy working with Cascade 220”

I have a large collection of Cascade yarns that I use mainly to make fair isle mittens and hats. It is a lovely yarn to work with and shows the patterns well. The 100% wool keeps hands and heads warm in the winter and retains moisture when wet. It’s my go-to yarn.

— Elizabeth

“Perfect for Master Knitter certification”

I'm using it for TKGA Master Knitter certification. It has availability and price. It is very well suited for this purpose.

“Perfect for knitting projects”

It is perfect for sweaters, blankets, and hats. I prefer it to the regular superwash 220. It is softer and feels better on my hands as I am knitting.

The raspberry color is amazing, perfect for the knit 'raspberry beret'. It is nice to knit with as well! It is nice and soft! Perfect knitting yarn!

“Perfect for reversible throws”

I love the gorgeous color and lovely hand. I'm using it for a bouncy, lofty reversible throw for a gift. That's what I knit now - reversible throws. No matter how they're piled in a chair, they look great! I highly recommend it 10/10!

“Great affordable sock yarn”

I have a hard time finding sock yarn that’s not wool. I like the colors and it is fun to work with. It’s an affordable option for people who can’t use wool, and I’m always happy with the finished product. I have not used these yet, but I’m looking forward to it. I’ve used this yarn and probably some of these same colors before tho.

— Sherida

“Joy to work with”

I saw the colorway Fruit Cocktail and was drawn to it. The yarn was a joy to work with. It was soft, smooth, and easy to work with. No stickiness at all. It's fine for me. I haven't blocked it yet.

“Soft and beautiful yarn for socks”

It knits up beautifully and is soft. I'm using it for socks. I've made many pairs in the past, and I’m still working on this pair.

I have used it for years. I am an avid Plymouth user for 30 years. It has 25 percent wool which makes it awesome to work with. I made over 30 afghans and they look brand new. I am from Methuen and also like to support my city.

I'm using it for a blanket for my newborn great-grandchild. I've used the same yarn for many years. It's soft and washable.

I've been using it for years to knit baby blankets and wraps/stoles. So glad it is still available.
