I totally agree. So did my husband ( whom knows nothing about yarn other than, I have way too much, lol) when I showed him other 4 weights I had sitting nearby. Also, totally not a roving yarn. I LOVE roving because it seams to give a softer feel and a beautiful halo. I would have felt misled if I had purchased it because it was listed as a roving.
Wow, you have taught me something NEW today. I never knew they could BLOW yarn through a tube of mesh like that to make it LOOK like a roving or other style they say it is. WOW. Great knowledge to KNOW. Thanks for teaching!
I met a wonderful lady at a pioneer fair on Saturday. We got to talking about crochet. She said let me show you my go to girl on tutorials. And she showed you! 😊 I said. Yes! I love her.
You go, girl you tell it like it is shame on Lionbrand! And I do trust your opinion Crystal if you can’t trust you who can you trust? Your opinion counts for more than you think! Thank you for the review again Lionbrand.
Only at the 10 min mark and I’ve laughed out loud twice, loud enough to have my son ask if I was ok😂. And then he heard your voice. “Ah…..Crystal is on”❤
Crystal you are killing me! 😂😂😂 Edit: How dare they try to pull one over on the roving Queen!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I love roving too so I'm super glad for the heads up! ❤❤❤
That was an outstanding review of that yarn. It makes me feel like if I were to go buy the yarn, I would know exactly what I am what to expect from the yarn. I agree, I thought it was a bulky 5, not a 4. It looked thicker, but it was beautiful. Beautiful yarn, beautiful transition in the coloring. A very wonderful review. Thank you so much. 😊😊
Watched your review, from start to finish; including the Ads! Love the shirt and hat, combo! Have a wonderful evening, and thank you for ALL you do! #bodfamrocks ⚓️🔔💙
I actually have never heard of a blown yarn. Interesting. And just with you handling it and showing it to us I wouldn't have thought it was roving either just because it seemed to be one size
You should write them you opinion explaining to them the difference so that they know they can't try & fool the public. You do have the experience after all. I'm glad you put this information out there for the public. I had know idea yarn was so complex. ❤
Your knowledge amazes me every time you drop a video! Thank you for the lesson on blown yarn, very interesting. While it is pretty and probably very soft, it is way overpriced and won't be landing in my basket anytime soon. Thank you for sharing your opinion Crystal! Have a great day. 🩵
Hi Crystal. As always I value your opinions. I agree with you not a roving style and I see more of a 5 weight. You can definitely see the shrinking and how its coming apart after washing and drying it. So this old lady will be passing on this, sorry Lion Brand.
when you said “they know more than me they’re a yarn company” 9:52 😂😂💁🏻♀️looks blown…it must be roving 😂 great review lmao you crack me up. It did shrink a bit. It’s very pretty yarn
Love your honest opinions. I’ve never heard of blown yarn, so thank you for explaining what it is. Thank you for your detailed review. Obviously you do know better. 😁👍💜🇨🇦
I learned something new, I never knew there was a thing called blown yarn. I'm so glad I watched this video. I love your honest opinions. I always listen to what you think and I will go look and see if I think it's something I would use. Thanks for the lesson, love you Crystal!!!!!
You Crack me up. I didn't think you were going to like it at all at first! Can't we go back to the good old days when A C Moore put their yarn on sale 5 for $10? I miss that!
Hi Crystal. When you showed it up close, I thought it was a 5 and surprise they say 4. Thanks for explaining CYC. I learn something from you all the time during my crochet journey 😊. Thanks for all you do.
Hola, Crystal. I love your review of yarn videos. I respect your honest opinion. Others I do not because they are affiliated with the companies. Today I learned about a new term, Blown yarn. Thank you so much for your videos.
I've never heard of a blown yarn. Good to know! I won't buy yarn unless it's on sale or I have a coupon. Yarn is so expensive now. I went to Goodwill the other day, and their yarn was even pricey! Thanks for the review Crystal!! 😊
Nothing bothers me more than a color transition yarn that they have run out of.. and tied on more. .. of a non transition color. And its happened to me many times.. especially with Lion Brand . Thank you for the review Crystal. ❤
I just ran across this using Lion Brand Landscapes Renewed. It wasn't only tied together, but I had to cut off the extra ends. I am new to crocheting and yarn in general. Thank you for letting me know I'm not alone.
Thank you 💕🙏🏼🌷Might be nice for boot cuffs. I live in the Northwoods of Wisconsin with a hat scarf set perfect for a sister gift. She is crochet worthy ❤
Great review! I had never heard of blown yarn. When you said they know more than you cuz they’re a yarn company- I thought of what I often say to the kids - “what do I know … I’m just the mom!” Lion Brand should be listening to you 😊
At first glance I saw it as chain spun and then you said it was supposed to be roving so I thought I just didn’t see it right. I’m so glad you explained about blown yarn. Made me think I’m not crazy 🤣.
Bulky 5 for sure. Original landscape stretched out of shape when I made wearables. This looks better. Ok that's what I call stretched. Shrunk irregularly. I'll stick with natural fibers and we'll made blends. Thanks for your hard work and honesty.
New to your channel and loving all of your videos. You are so much fun to watch and always so informative and very entertaining. You have a wonderful personality. And a great big heart! ❤
I've never heard of blown yarn. I do love chain spun tho. Ty for showing & testing these yarns! It is a pretty yarn. I'll have to try it...once it goes on sale! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Crystal for another top notch honest review of this yarn! Your reviews are always so very helpful. I've not tried it and have no desire to. 🤷🏼♀️ Have a beautiful day!🤗💖
Well, you called it. You said you didn't think it would pass the washer/ dryer test. You were correct. I will still probably try it if I catch it on sale near me. Thank you.
I didn’t think I would like it. But after you showed it on your knit machine I thought it looked beautiful. But the price is, steep for the fiber content/ yardage. Thank you.
I think 🤔 the texture of the strand of the yarn itself is interesting. Like you said blown...I never heard that term for yarn but it was cool 😎 to see what you were talking about. I think I would lay flat to dry.
Thank you so much for this review, especially the washing/drying section. I will be skipping this yarn for several reasons. I don’t like polyester yarn because I feel hot and sweaty when wearing a polyester garment. I don’t like the look of the yarn due to the blown in construction. I’m not a fan of fuzzy yarn that pills and looks old after several washings. I noticed the Landscapes Breeze yarn on their website is mostly rayon and is described as a hollow core chainette yarn. Interesting…… Thanks for all you do! 🍁🍁🍁🍁
I crocheted a sweater with this yarn and that exact color! I personally loved working with it. It’s definitely between and 4 and 5. The gradient wasn’t terrible or the greatest but I still enjoyed the color change. Thanks for your videos Crystal! Much love ❤️
Crystal your awesome I appreciate you so much. I love that you take the time to really explain whether it be a honest yarn review so that I know what I am buying and what to expect or one of your tutorials that I can actually follow. Thank you so much you rock!!!♥️👍
I have the color you got plus the green and the green transitions good too. I was going to make a shawl as I got 3 of both (on sale of course). I agree it is so very soft I keep having to squish it lol.

I did do a WPI test like the CYC does, and it comes out to measure a bulky 5 weight
Its not roving. Yur right!

Crystal, I love your honest yarn reviews ❤ You are the “Consumer Reports” for the yarn community.
You go, girl you tell it like it is shame on Lionbrand! And I do trust your opinion Crystal if you can’t trust you who can you trust? Your opinion counts for more than you think! Thank you for the review again Lionbrand.
I like your honest reviews and how you put the yarns through the testing and show us the results.
Only at the 10 min mark and I’ve laughed out loud twice, loud enough to have my son ask if I was ok😂. And then he heard your voice. “Ah…..Crystal is on”❤
❤😂
I did also.
Same LOL here!
Crystal you are killing me! 😂😂😂 Edit: How dare they try to pull one over on the roving Queen!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I love roving too so I'm super glad for the heads up! ❤❤❤

Hi. Crystal. I. Agree. That. The. Yarn. Looks. Like. A. Number. Five. .the. Color. Is. Very. Pretty. Thank. .you. For. This ..video. And. Your ..honest. Opinion. The. .samples. Look. Great.
Chrystal, thanks for the review. This color you are wearing today suits you SO WELL. It makes you look very special.
I love that colorway, very peaches & cream.
So funny! Loooove the subtle eyeroll at 9:53ish. 🤣 And then, "Remember, it's only 25% eco-friendly"
I actually have never heard of a blown yarn. Interesting. And just with you handling it and showing it to us I wouldn't have thought it was roving either just because it seemed to be one size
Thanks as always! Have a great evening! Take care. ❤️🤗
Love that color. It does look like the desert.

I learned something new today. I’ve never heard of that type of yarn structure before. Thank you so much Crystal for explaining it 😊❤
Thank you for explaining and showing the difference in how yarn is made, I always learn so much from your videos 👍🏾
Love the afghan on your chair.
Thank you for taking the yarn through the tests. Reviews are so much more meaningful when the wash test is done.
You should write them you opinion explaining to them the difference so that they know they can't try & fool the public. You do have the experience after all. I'm glad you put this information out there for the public. I had know idea yarn was so complex. ❤
That throw from Gary is beautiful
You saved me a ton of money and heartache. This one's a hard no...Thanks!

Never heard of blown yarn. I laughed when you said they should know more than you. But they don't! I do love the color transition. Very pretty!

Thanks for reviewing this new yarn
I have learned the most about yarn from you! You know yarn! 💗🧶
Crystal thanks for sharing your unboxing and the review of the yarn. It is nice when you work up. Have a great day.♥️
Beautiful yarn. Good review. Thank you Crystal ❤
I love your comments on this yarn. Have a wonderful day. 😊
❤😊 I always love your reviews! Open and honest! ❤😊
In thinking this yarn will be a hard NO! Thanks for sharing, Crystal🐾🐾🐾🐾
I agree,,polyester is such a cheap synthetic fibre and yet the price is over the top,
You Crack me up. I didn't think you were going to like it at all at first! Can't we go back to the good old days when A C Moore put their yarn on sale 5 for $10? I miss that!
Hi Crystal. When you showed it up close, I thought it was a 5 and surprise they say 4. Thanks for explaining CYC. I learn something from you all the time during my crochet journey 😊. Thanks for all you do.
I did make your stitch sampler beanie. You teach so well. I find myself saying skip-skip to myself!! Lol
I love your reviews. You are so thorough and knowledgeable. I enjoy watching your channel. I crochet some, nothing really hard. Thank you. 🩵🧶🇺🇸

Thanks for the review of the yarn. I'm glad you do this.
This is why we trust your reviews
Quite interesting love yarn videos
Oh I love your outfit today dear Ms. Brown BOD. You look cute. Thanks for your reviews. ❤❤❤
LOVE your yarn reviews!!!
❤️💜💕🧶⭐️
I've never heard of a blown yarn. Good to know! I won't buy yarn unless it's on sale or I have a coupon. Yarn is so expensive now. I went to Goodwill the other day, and their yarn was even pricey! Thanks for the review Crystal!! 😊
I know! Goodwill is getting ridiculous
I gotta agree with you on roving. Roving is sound fibers. In a single ply.
I love your reviews. You know more about yarn than I ever will. I love your tutorials and have tried making many of them.
Nothing bothers me more than a color transition yarn that they have run out of.. and tied on more. .. of a non transition color. And its happened to me many times.. especially with Lion Brand . Thank you for the review Crystal. ❤
Same here. I’ve never had it like Lion Brand. I recently did an afghan and in one skein of ombre there were 6 knots that screwed it up.
I just ran across this using Lion Brand Landscapes Renewed. It wasn't only tied together, but I had to cut off the extra ends. I am new to crocheting and yarn in general. Thank you for letting me know I'm not alone.
Wow, never heard blown yarn. Thank you!
Very pretty colors
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I never heard of this type of yarn. You are the best!
Thank you 💕🙏🏼🌷Might be nice for boot cuffs. I live in the Northwoods of Wisconsin with a hat scarf set perfect for a sister gift. She is crochet worthy ❤
Interesting. Thx for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great review! I had never heard of blown yarn. When you said they know more than you cuz they’re a yarn company- I thought of what I often say to the kids - “what do I know … I’m just the mom!” Lion Brand should be listening to you 😊

Bulky 5 for sure. Original landscape stretched out of shape when I made wearables. This looks better.
Ok that's what I call stretched. Shrunk irregularly. I'll stick with natural fibers and we'll made blends. Thanks for your hard work and honesty.
Thank you for your reviews, I always value them. And I love the hat! 😊
New to your channel and loving all of your videos. You are so much fun to watch and always so informative and very entertaining. You have a wonderful personality. And a great big heart! ❤
I really appreciate your honesty ❤ the dried sample really did look like crap
Pretty color! Maybe blanket would work! Price definitely too high! Thank you! God Bless. Take care. Love you. 🙏♥️😇
I've never heard of blown yarn. I do love chain spun tho. Ty for showing & testing these yarns! It is a pretty yarn. I'll have to try it...once it goes on sale! ❤️❤️❤️
5 for sure!
Thank you Crystal! Very educational.
Thanks Crystal, your reviews are very helpful!
Great review. Love the color.
Thank you Crystal for another top notch honest review of this yarn! Your reviews are always so very helpful. I've not tried it and have no desire to. 🤷🏼♀️
Have a beautiful day!🤗💖
Thank you for your yarn reviews.
I liked how sassy this review was 😂. I think I would like this yarn for the right project, too
Appreciate the thorough review.
Thank you for your honest assessment of the yard.
Hi Crystal. Pretty yarn and looks soft. Sounds like it may have some cons I may not like. Thanks for your review.
I love to watch your eyes when you are doing a review. LOL
Remember polyester leisure suits? I only had 1, a pantsuit; it was cold in the winter and hot in the summer.
Well, you called it. You said you didn't think it would pass the washer/ dryer test. You were correct. I will still probably try it if I catch it on sale near me. Thank you.
I didn’t think I would like it. But after you showed it on your knit machine I thought it looked beautiful. But the price is, steep for the fiber content/ yardage. Thank you.

I have a yarn that I'd call chain spun, blown-in roving, because the amount of the blown in fibers changes the same way regular roving does.
Good review and a lot of good information. I personally would not pay full price, like Crystal said.
Crystal your awesome I appreciate you so much. I love that you take the time to really explain whether it be a honest yarn review so that I know what I am buying and what to expect or one of your tutorials that I can actually follow.
Thank you so much you rock!!!♥️👍
I have the color you got plus the green and the green transitions good too. I was going to make a shawl as I got 3 of both (on sale of course). I agree it is so very soft I keep having to squish it lol.
Awesome review Crystal!! I love "true" roving yarn too. I agree this is blown yarn and not true roving yarn and is a #5. It looks beautiful though.
I love your facial expressions!
Great review!
It crocheted up beautifully. Lovely colour
Love your reviews.
