It’s actually sold as 5 ply milk cotton in my country (might be miscommunication) Basically, the ply number tells you the amount of strands twisted together (e.g. 5 ply milk cotton - 5 strands of milk cotton twisted together). The milk cotton ply that you purchased usually comes in 40-50 grams skeins, so they’re pretty small. But the 8 ply, which is thicker and even more spongy, comes in 100 grams skeins, which is probably similar to the size of skein you expected. Hope this helps!
Supposedly the yarn is 80% cotton and 20% milk protein (whatever that is)! We always have that brand in stock where I live I just never had the chance to try, it looks lovely though, thank you for sharing your experience with it!
@@mrbobvinn Milk protein is a hybrid fiber. It takes the natural proteins in milk (yes, like milk that you drink) and chemically processes them to make a fiber. Rayon (made from wood pulp) is another hybrid fiber. Because it's made of protein, milk fiber shares a lot of traits with wool and silk.
That yarn is very popular in Vietnam, basically when you ask for a beginner yarn people will tell you to get Milk Cotton yarn. They are cheap and have a huge variety of colors. The yarn is 80% milk and 20% cotton. Recommended hook: 2.5-3mm (I use 3.5mm hook and still ok) Knitting needle: 4mm

It’s acrylic but in china they call cotton milk.
Simone from china translate for me .
Also if you put on fire it melts. Cotton never melts
I'm in love with the color variations you get. I just started to crochet and it's so hard to find like "gradient" palette all in the same yarn
FYI, you can use Google lense on your phone to translate the package.. It's helpful!
This was actually one of the most genuine and helpful reviews in comparison to others

Ten ply means Aran weight which is a 4 in US measurements of yarn
Where do you get your hooks from? I want to start crocheting
I’m fairly sure that brand is 80% acrylic but anti pilling.
Yes ! It’s acrylic. It melts in fire
I love your hooks, where do you get them from?
