JP – August 1, 2022
Over the years, I have collected 8/2 cotton from several sources, some of it from highly publicized, big-name brands. I recently had a project that combined these many-sourced yarns and can honestly say that Made In America yarns were not over-twisted or over-processed. They did not unravel or fray. They performed well; and I had no problems with them, unlike the yarn from the Big Box Stores, which I will never use again. I would like more color choices…hint, hint. 🙂

Great for towels. I use a lot of this and its a great value, shipping was fast. I will purchase again.

This is actually my second purchase of this yarn. The only complaint I have is that when warping, keeping a lot of tension on the threads as they wind on is as crucial for happy threading as keeping the yarn straight. This thread has a tendency to curl a bit and become tangled.
I love that it is absorbent and soft after washing. It makes great towels; and of course, the neutral color goes with everything.
