I would like for Michaels to please ask for this yarn to start production again. Please and thank you. I make special hats scarves and booties with this beautiful yarn. Thanks so much

These people must be colour blind.  They discontinue one yarn called grey scale and bring out another, different name, total different colour altogether, but have used the grey scale picture.  Red Heart, shake your head!!!

i got the cobblestone color, and the shaded neutral grays and blacks were pretty. working with the yarn, however, was very unpleasant. the yarn was shaggy and frayed, and every skein had several knots.

I really like how soft this yarn was and how well it worked up. I read that someone else had a couple knots. I used 6 of these skeins and two had small knots that were easy to get out. Maybe a little overpriced when you have to pay full price.

I was winding the yarn into a ball and found that 2 pieces of yarn had been tied together creating a knot. I do not recommend this yarn.

My project pattern should have resulted in a 30+ inch length baby blanket using five skeins. And should have striped! It did neither! At least three of the skeins were broken and the pattern did not stripe. The pattern was specific for this brand and yarn. So disappointed! And cheated.

I was hesitant to buy this yarn online, because I couldn't touch it. I am very picky about how a yarn feels, and having never felt this line of Red Heart I hoped it would live up to the reviews I read all over craft sites. I was not disappointed! I cannot begin to describe how soft, "squishy",and truly stunning this yarn is. I used the color Linen, which is in pretty  shades of white, blush, dusty-grayish purple, and gray., to make my first corner-to-corner afghan. It works so nicely, slides on the hook effortlessly, and stripes beautifully. Even though it's a bulky weight yarn, it isn't too heavy, nor do I think it will be too warm for chilly weather. I got 15 skeins to start with, and have not had any issues with tangling, or pulling from the center, with the exception one skein. Quite a bit came out with the starting strand, but none of it was tangled, so it was not a hassle at all. The only very minor thing I've found is that each skein has had one knot where  the strands to make the skeins were joined.  However, the knots were "clean" in that they were  small, and neatly tied with no fraying ends. I could have left them in, and no one would see them. But, I can't stand knots in my work, so I simply cut them out, with the only wasted yarn was about a centimeter's worth where the actual knot was. I highly recommend this yarn!

I absolutely love this yarn! It's so soft and has a slight shimmer to it making it look very professional and as if it's top quality. I used this to make a nice bag for my aunt and it turned out better than anticipated. It's a thinner bulky yarn, not super thick. So easy to work with. I bought the linen stripe though, thinking it was tan and white as shown in the photo and it is not! It's white and gray and a champagne color and tan. It's absolutely gorgeous and better than I even thought, but the photo is off with the color.

This yarn is so easy to work with and all the children I have made blankets for absolutely love them. It washes up beautifully.
