TA-DAAN selection and review on the most soft and versatile yarns from @yarnandcolors.
Today we’ll go through Yarn and Colors yarns, and we’ll point out 4 yarns for winter projects. 🧶
Before getting to the list, there are a few general considerations to make:

Yarn and Colors yarns are great value for money. As the price is so affordable, is encouraging (even for beginners) to take on big projects;
Colors names are always the same. No confusion between different yarn types;
All their yarns have nice names: great when there is attention to details.

With that said, let’s see what yarns are most suggested this winter and what projects you can do with them 👇🏼😎

Cheerful is a must for winter! We love this yarn, it’s very soft and a joy to work with!
Quite voluminous, is perfect for any warm winter project! It is a wool-acrylic blend, the composition is 60% wool, 40% acrylic. TA-DAAN team tried this yarn to make a granny square headband (tap on the image below to see the steps).

🌈: 20 colors

🧶: 100-gram skein
🥢: recommended 7mm needles

Serene Yarn

Serene yarn wins second place on the podium.
Made from 100% merino wool. It has a light weight, perfect to make warm gloves or socks 🧤🧦
The only downside is that it comes in limited color range, so you probably have to adapt your initial plans…other than that is highly recommended.

🌈: 10 colors

🧶: 50-gram skein

🥢: recommended 4/5mm needles

💡: not itchy and versatile

Baby Fabulous

Baby Fabulous uses a 45% cotton and 55% acrylic. Quite elastic, this yarn is great for beginners as it doesn’t fray and has a good yarn weight. We have tested the baby fabulous to make cool crochet scrunchies (tap below to see how to make one) and highly recommend this yarn for such projects!

🌈: 35 colors

🧶: 50-gram skein
🥢: recommended 4/5mm needles

💡: versatile, beginner friendly, perfect for making accessories

Elegant Yarn

Elegant yarn comes at last, but not the least! Soft as a cloud and very light.
Recommended for soft hugs 😍 As it is very thin, looks great combined with another yarn or with multiple threads at once.

The composition is 25% Mohair, 25% Wool and 50% Acrylic.

🌈: 12 colors

🧶: 20-gram skein
🥢: recommended 3.5/4 mm needles
