Knitted a free pattern baby blanket for my dear friend with this beautiful yarn. One of the best blankets I’ve ever made and I have been making baby blankets for 30 years! Keeps a shape but yet thick enough & so wonderfully soft!
This is the best yarn for hats and scarves. It is washable and can be tumble dried. I have used this yarn for many projects including my favorite sweater.
I'm impressed with this yarn, and how easy it knits up. The yarn is soft and warm according to my daughter, who is wearing a new hat I just finished knitting with the Plymouth Encore worsted yarn.
This yarn is excellent for hats and larger projects. It is soft and available in so many colors
I’ve used Encore on a number of baby blankets. I like the price point for when I need several colors. It’s easy to work with, and it is machine washable. I love the vast selection of colors.
I love this yarn! I make a lot of hats and scarves for donation and this yarn is perfect for giving. It washes well, can be dried in a dryer, and is a delight to knit with great stitch definition.
Plymouth Encore acrylic/wool yarn is really easy to knit with, washes and dries well, and wears like iron. It is great for blankets or lap robes, with a large variety of colors from which to choose. The price is easy on the budget too. Just a very good buy.
Perfect for little boy/dad matching sweaters for Christmas. Gifting two sets this year. WEBS helped when I needed an additional skein with the same dye lot. Thanks-you saved the project!
I have been using Plymouth Encore Worsted for years. It is always great quality, and rarely has tied knots. I mostly use it for children's clothing, because it doesn't pill and is easy to care for. My finished items always come out perfectly. This is my go-to yarn for anything.
I use this for all my baby things as it’s part wool, but the acrylic component makes it possible to throw soiled items in the washer and dryer. The range of colors is AMAZING, the feel of the yarn as you work with it is very comfortable, not scratchy, and the finished items are sturdy and long-lasting.
