Red Heart E300.4970 Super Saver Yarn, Acrylic, Bright Stripe, 5 Ounces, 215 metres

Excellent acrylic yarn. I used it to create a worry bear for my god daughter. It crochets up lovely.

I have always wanted to try Red Hearts super saver yarn ever since watching youtube videos for knitting and crochet.This was my first one and I love it!!It is Worsted weight, number 4 yarn which for us British is similar to an Aran weight yarn and knits up perfectly to Aran patterns. The first thing I made was a hat for myself and one for my daughter and they turned out gorgeous, they are lovely and warm also soft too.The colours in this print are lovely and the photo does not do it justice.It knits up beautifully and is nice to knit with. I have heard from other reviewers that it is a rather rough yarn best suited for blankets and such but I find it quite soft. I also understand that if it is washed and tumble dried it gets even softer but looses its shape over time so I shall see how my hats fair, I will keep you posted.A lovely yarn in a nice big ball (144g, 5oz ball) slightly smaller than the plain colours as they are 7oz balls but in 2 balls I had enough to make 2 bobble hats 3 pompoms (one went wrong so had to remake it) and a pair of gloves.Have ordered more to make a scarf.

The yarn has the pattern included for the cowl as shown in the photos. It's a brilliant pattern suitable for beginners at knitting and it really shows off the pattern which can be achieved from this yarn. But it really is very poor quality, squeaky and scratchy with messy joins. Very similar to cheap acrylic yarns like robin or pound shop.

Love this yarn and especially this particular colour mix. Red heart yarn is obviously more expensive but I like using it. The super saver skeins are worth the spend as there is so much yarn to work up. I've Crocheted a beer cozy, beanie hat and now I'm working on a blanket. The colour blend is lovely and I'd say suitable for more male oriented projects.

I have used red heart colour pooling yarn previously (Haute) and loved it- a count of 3 was maintained for each colour and there was no colour run between the changes. Therefore I decided to crochet a pullover which called for a colour pooled panel front and back. I chose Antique for this. The first ball of yarn worked up fine although i did find that the count for colours was 4, 5, 5,6. The colours didn't run into each other.However the second ball of Antique was very unsatisfactory for the following reasons:-1/ The count was completely different for the same colours as the previous ball2/ There was a tailors join after I had worked 1 inch of work and it was completely out of sync with the previous colour sequence-appeared to be wound from opposite direction3/ The colours had long areas of dye leakage from brown to turquoise (6 inches!!!!) making colour pooling very difficult and obviously affecting the overall look of the argyll effect.I have contacted the seller to ask how this issue can be rectified. I do hope that all other colour mixes are not the same as I have bought another 6 balls in various colours based on my previous wonderful experience.

I bought this wool for hat making, I made a really lovely crocheted beanie❤️❤️

I thought I'd try this bright yarn and to be honest I tried four different scarf patterns before I found out e that looked right with the yarn, I found there's no pattern to the colour changes which was annoying at first but once I found the right pattern I was away, I brought two skeins and I was 3 stitches from finishing but luckily I ended with black so was able to join another one on, it looks awesome, my friend loves it, definitely recommend.

Love using red heart super saver. Just wish the price was as cheap as it is in America!
