Bernat Baby Blanket Stripes Yarn Review
I recently picked up this Bernat Baby Blanket Stripes Yarn, and I wanted to make something out of it, so I decided to make a simple corner to corner (C2C) blanket. After I got it all worked up I thought I'd share some thoughts on the yarn, so if you are thinking of picking some up you'll know what to expect.
I liked that the yarn is convient because you don't have to carry a bunch of balls of different colors with you to make a striped blanket, but I did have a hard time with the fact that I couldn't control the color changes. Almost none of the color changes occured where I would have chosen them. I also liked the that I didn't have to choose colors to make a pallette, I'm not great at choosing color combinations, so I liked this step was done for me. I wasn't especially happy with the color changes themselves- they were sometimes a little sloppy and had a weird texture, but they seemed secure, so I think they'll be ok.
The yarn is soft, fuzzy, and squishy- everything you'd want in a baby blanket! If you can handle the color changes happening with no control over them, then I strongly recommend this yarn. I was able to get a decent-sized baby blanket, including edging, out of just two balls!
