Lion Brand Yarn (1 Skein) Coboo Yarn, Terracotta, 696 Foot (Pack of 1)

I recently purchased this coboo yarn in bayberry for a crochet wrap that will be a Christmas present. This is my first time using this yarn and, while I love it, I am frustrated at the number of knots and frayed ends in each skein. I am using two skeins at a time, and have found 11 factory knots in the first two skeins so far. There were sections where I was having to cut out factory knots every few feet. Due to this issue my project now has extra knots throughout this section making it look less clean. I would love to keep working with this yarn as the colors are beautiful and it is truly lovely to crochet with, but the excessive level of factory knots makes it less appealing. I tried to report issue this through Amazon, but was only offered a return. I’ve already used two skeins and have cut out and retied the factory knots so do not feel comfortable returning these skeins. Updated: The first two skeins I used may have been a fluke, I am now mostly through another two skeins and they have had no factory knots. This yarn is truly a joy to work with when not having to undo factory knots. Updated review from 3 starts to 5 stars.

I do like it. Color is a lovely coral-y orange. Beautiful. It also makes for a soft garment. Until you get used to it, though, maybe use wood needles? Very slippery. It WILL fall off your metal needles. It also will split. But just be careful and get used to it, and it will be okay in the end. Frogs really easily - some might say TOO easily... but tomato, tomahto.

Lion brand Coboo yarn is the best yarn to crochet clothes. It is very soft and durable because is made from bamboo. The yarn still looks new after several washing. It really feels like a light weighted yarn when worn. Works well and the strength is amazing. I love the color choices. Definitely a value for the money. The cake looks small but in reality the amount of yarn for the price.

I really like this Lion Brand Coboo yarn in Vanilla Blossom! I originally purchased my first skein from the Lion Brand website and then ordered the rest I needed here on Amazon to finish my project. The color is absolutely beautiful in person a soft, creamy Vanilla Blossom shade that works really I’m using a 3.5 mm hook as the yarn is thin, despite being thin the yarn makes beautiful petals for my daisy granny square and the flower part works up speedily and I’m able to speed through the flower part. It’s a good value for the amount you get, and I appreciate that it feels comfortable to work with most of the time you will need lots of this yarn and it’s small . I did notice dye lots can different , but luckily mine still blended well enough that I can’t really tell the difference. I would definitely recommend buying a bit more than you think you’ll need at once, just in case dye lots don’t match perfectly. The biggest downside is that this yarn does split fairly easily while working with it, which can be a little frustrating compared to other Lion Brand yarns. Once you adjust your tension and get used to it, it’s manageable, but it’s definitely something to be aware of. Overall, still a lovely yarn with a gorgeous color and great softness, but the splitting keeps it from being perfect for me.

I love knitting projects with it as it is so inexpensive, offers great color choices, the finished product looks and feels so very nice with its sheen, knitting doesn’t have to be a luxury hobby. It doesn’t split just like any other cotton yarn, it’s not a quality issue, it’s that most cotton yarns not matter how expensive have this splitting behavior that is a little annoying to get used to but over time you get a hang of it how to work with it best.

Love love love cooboo. It does separate so you have to be careful crocheting but I think that’s just the type of yarn. It works up beautifully and gives that drapey look. So soft for wearables.

This yarn so so nice and soft but I am having a problem with the yarn splitting. It has really slowed down me down. I did read about splitting yarn and they gave me some ideas that are helping. So if you can deal with the splitting of the yarn, the finished product feels and looks great.

I have been waiting to try out this yarn, it has a sheen to it and is strong like cotton yet soft. I love it and can't wait to use it for a project.

ممتاز ولونه وسعره ونوعيته جيده

Fantastic yarn, drapes well, feels soft agains your skin perfect for garments, a little on the expensive side to what I like but well worth it.

El color está lindo tal cual en la imagen, tiene buena textura, de pronto se me hace un poco difícil tejer con el pero todo bien, yo utilicé un gancho 3.5, estoy haciendo un jersey

Muy buen hilo para tejer, con una sola madeja hice un sombrero, el color es tal cual se muestra en la fotografía, sin duda volvería a comprar hilo de esta marca para tejer.
