Lovely Softness

After making my afghan from the Ferris Wheel yarn, my husband wanted one too.

It took a week to decide what yarn and color combination but now feel confident of our choices. We chose Tourmaline, Raisin and Moonbeam with a Chevron stripe pattern. I'm 3/4 done and have enjoyed working with the Color Theory yarn. It is so soft and behaves well. No knots and a consistent thickness.

We are excited to see this piece finished and laundered so we can both snuggle up in our blankies.

Love this yarn so much

I love the softness. I also love that everyone though it’s soft, it’s not just for fall and winter but also spring and summer which I think is absolutely amazing. As a knitter, I work with a lot of different yarns and a lot of them are only for fall and winter but I just love working with this yarn so much. It glides through my fingers very smoothly and I love how it feels. I highly recommend this yarn if you want to make all season projects because this works for both spring, summer, fall, and winter.

I even made this cute beanie in this yarn.

Beautiful color

This is my favorite color of The Color Theory palette. They are all gorgeous and soft, easy to knit, but Tourmaline is my best

Lovely yarn

Purchased to make a blanket as a gift. First time trying out this yarn and I absolutely love it! It’s squishy, soft texture is perfect for the pattern I chose. I will definitely be buying it again.

Soft and easy to work with

As an avid crocheter, I find acrylic yarn is often harsh and scratchy. Color Theory yarn is soft, easy on the hands and comes in a wide range of beautiful colors. I've made a cardigan and am now working on a blanket. This yarn will be in my "go to" rotation.

Timeless acrylic yarn

It’s hard not to love this yarn. It’s so smooth that I can work fast and all the projects have a lovely soft weight when finished. Bought 8 skeins (in Nutmeg) for this project and only 2 of them had breaks - not bad! Already bought another 8 in Citron for another cardie with summer vibes!
