"It's soft and easy to handle. It has a nice weight for making the hats I've made with it. I made 11 hats 3 years ago and am now making 2 more for grandkids that outgrew the first hat I made them. I really enjoy working with this yarn and am enjoying making more hats. Now I need to make one for myself. It's a comfortable wool blend to wear."

Product Description

Berroco Vintage is a worsted-weight yarn made from 52% acrylic, 40% wool and 8% nylon, and it's machine washable. You get wool's warmth in something you can wash without a second thought. That's why it's a go-to for hats, scarves, shawls and everyday wear for kids and grown-ups. It comes in a wide range of solids and heathers.

What makers noticed

Knitters say it's soft and easy to handle, and that it knits up evenly without splitting. One maker has made more than a dozen hats in it for her grandchildren and says it's a comfortable wool blend to wear. Others have picked it for shawls and for a college-colors scarf.

Pro tip: Berroco gives two knitting gauges: 20 sts to 4 in on US 7, or 18 sts on US 8. Swatch to see which one your pattern calls for.

Best Stocking Yarn

I love Berroco Vintage for knitting Christmas stockings!!! It's the only yarn I use. Great colors choices for either traditional designs (snow day, holly, and berries). For my recent stocking I used muted colors love how the fawn turned out.

I love using Berroco vintage for my mosaic crochet projects. It is a lighter 4 weight so it's not so heavy with this technique. It comes in a HUGE range of colors. It washes and wears well. Definitely my favorite yarn at this point.
