    Credit to Lion, they're one of the few big box brands that really make an effort to do something different. I really enjoy the variety in their range!

    I love how detailed and well thought out your yarn critiques are. A nice balance if personal preference and technical analysis. Regardless if our opinions jive or differ, I enjoy the amount of effort and thought they are given. Keep up the great work.

    Wow. Love that you sound like you're talking with me, a good friend, though we've never actually met. Easy. Clear. No hard sell. Up beat. Helpful. Makes me believe I could do it and I NEED most of this yarn!

    Ok, I just gotta say, I found you when I first started crocheting a couple months ago, and I 100% trust your taste in yarn. You've never steered me wrong, and by god, I love tunisian crochet better than regular. I just wish I could order some now, but I'm moving, and don't know when! lol.

    Can I just tell you how much I appreciate these reviews? I live in a rural area and the nearest Joann is 3 hours away. That means I can only get things online so I can’t check anything out before I buy it. These reviews are soooooo helpful, thank you so much!!

    I tend to watch TH-cam pretty much all day as I carry on with everything else I do. It's the background noise of my life. I'm really about half-watching... or less. But I was completely absorbed in your reviews and completely stopped being productive. So, I had to take some time to tell you how fantastic and complete your reviews were. You showed and told me pretty much everything I needed/wanted to know about these yarns and you were completely engaging. Thanks for some real quality edu-tainment!

  • @Julescelt01

    "Incredibly bouncy, making it more fun to squish"! Is my new way to evaluate yarn!

  • @LizzLizz
    @LizzLizz 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    As a brand new crocheter. I would love to see a video from you where you dive in to what the different levels of yarn mean, what they are best used for making, etc. Also the different materials yarn is made from. Is more acrylic better for some projects than others? I know I can google this, but you are so good at describing things. I feel like I would get more from you, than reading.

    Hey Tony, I would love to see a review of the most popular yarns from Knit Picks! I'm thinking Wool of the Andes, Palette, City Tweed (one of my ultimate fave yarns!), Stroll (another deliciously soft yarn), Dishie cotton, Hawthorne, etc. They also have some cool specialty yarns like Lindy Chain, Fable Fur, Wonderfluff, and Shine (cotton and modal).

    Hi Toni -- So appreciate your yarn reviews!! So often you don't know whether to try a new yarn when there are no reviews out there for it! Your honesty and enthusiasm is so refreshing! Keep the reviews coming! Just bought your pattern for the Rochester Pullover and got some Lion Brand Heartland yarn as I didn't want any wool - too hot for me even in winter! Can't wait to start that, but need to wait for weather here (CT)to cool down a bit!! Thanks again!!

  • @AntisocialAuntie

You are a delight to listen to, obviously very experienced and knowledgeable both about yarns but all things crochet. Thank you for taking the time to share this info.

    I stumbled upon your videos and I'll echo what others have said: they are excellent. Not repetitive, very informational, and I love that you do a swatch that we can see. I mostly knit, but I do also crochet. I especially enjoy Tunisian crochet, so thank you for displaying that stitch. Currently trying to work through my ridiculous stash, but I just may have to try one of these!!

  • @irisayala3497
    @irisayala3497 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Oh, but remember, Joann always has coupons like 40 and 50% off the regular price or 20-25% off the total price. And Lion Brand has great coupons too on their website once you sign up like 25-35% off total order. I just grabbed Truboo yarn (100% bamboo yarn with a sheen!) to make the Sweetpea Top on Lion Brand for 25% off just for spinning the wheel to get a discount code. So, never pay full price. Thank Toni for the yarn reviews. Can't wait to shop again for my next project.

    @tabcat9 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love your videos so much. You speak clearly and on point. I can see everything you're doing perfectly and love how you show us the stitches. I have to say I really wanted to see what you had to say about mandala watercolors. I recently made a blanket in moss stitch and I was blown away by it. The stitch definition was wonderful, its so soft, fluffy, and the transitions of colors are wonderful. It is a gift yet still hanging out in my house because I love looking at it. I was glad to see you gave it 10. :)

    @dawnfredlund5810 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for showing the yarns and working samples. I personally will try all of them. Especially the comfy cotton fetti,

    @sharecare-tg2dx 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    LOVE your reviews! So helpful because I don’t know much about yarn and get most of mine on mine. I have to say that the Watercolors really got my attention and next in line was the RePlay. Pima and Confetti fall next in line for me. The others, not much interest. Definitely want to try Watercolors!! THANK YOU for such great, in-depth, straight to the point, and honest reviews! I can almost feel the yarn as you describe it! Very well done! Hope you never stop doing these reviews!

    Gotta say I am loving the variety of cotton and cotton blends. I live in Arizona and don't get much call for the warmth of wool. Completely enjoy your critique and you have inspired me to try Tunisian crochet!! My current favorite cake yarn is Twister or Twister solid from Hobbii. I just love the feel of it! Thanks Toni!!

    @normamurphy2827 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Based on your judgement, bought 5 skeins of Lion Brand Pima Cotton for an intarsia baby blanket. Thank you sooooooooooooooo much!!!! I LOVE knitting and crocheting baby blankets for the hospitals. Doing the needlework is a joy, auditioning the yarn is tedious, $$$$ and a pain in the hinny. I can't tell you how grateful I am to have you doing the reviewing. You do the WORK, I do the fun part :-) Time to buy you SEVERAL cups of coffee!!!!

    Wow I wasn’t really into the mandala water colors until I saw the swatch you made. It’s beautiful! Thank you for testing these.

    I'm SUCH a fiber nerd, I could talk about and learn about different fibers ALL DAY (I appreciate you talking a little bit about the fibers 😍🙌🏻)! Textiles was my fave class and is now the reason for my obsession with wool (and sustainable fibers)

    Great review Toni,wow, I have to agree with you colorwise that the Mandala Watercolors are beautiful and I can't wait to see what you come up with with Tunisian Crochet. I did love the Twisted Cotton too and the tape yarn (I think it was the Re-Play...I'm in love with that yellow and that Tunisian swatch you did. Thanks for your fun and thorough review.

    Screwd the pooch made me die laughing!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣💕 I can totally relate to the moniker of "Yarn Snob". Your Summertime Tank pattern would be cute in the the funfetti yarn. I'm making it with Comfy Cotton in Poppy. I might try the Pima Cotton for your Summertime Tee in mineral yellow or spice. The watercolours pallet is gorgeous. Thank you for your honest, clear and insightful reviews. It helps when buying yarn on line to know how it looks, feel and handles on the hook.

    I love your yarn reviews. I always find them so helpful and its made try Lion Brand yarns again. Watercolor and Comfy Cotton-fetti are definitely my favorites.

    Thank you for the yarn review it helps so much! Bag-o-day did a yarn review on Pima Cotton and she said it didn’t wash and dry very well but she loved working with it. She suggested hand washing and laying flat to dry! Love the Confetti Cotton yarn and was excited to see you gave it high marks! Enjoyed so much and do more yarn reviews!
