Love the scarf hate the yarn!


I am knitting and crocheting my fingers to the bone! I really enjoyed making this scarf! Fun and easy...However, the yarn not so much..Its Lion Brand Homespun.. Its very splitty and hard to work with. I love Lion Brand and this is the first yarn I dislike from them.. Colors are amazing though...Later Y'all!

eeeeeeks... so sorry you didn't ask...homespun is on my no-no list. It really doesn't like a hook at all.

I'm think a trip up to the new NPR Hobby Lobby is in order... I know you will aDORe the I Love this Yarn. Maybe, I will see you there between the 22nd and 29th. MIL visit and you know I will need something to do while there.

That being said. I still think this is cool looking.

Yep...that Lion Brand Homespun is nasty stuff. I've tried several times to use it because it's so darn pretty, but I never can finish anything because it's so frustrating trying to crochet with it splitting so badly. Your scarf is very pretty! Your patience paid off.

Scarf is beautiful but I'm with you when it comes to homespun although the coloring and shades of the yarn is very pretty.

I can't get with Homespun either. It's especially difficult to crochet with. Does Lion Brand still sell it?
