Bernat is great yarn

I love this yarn and your service was great. BUT, there's always a but, right. The picture here was exactly the yarn I wanted, the yarn I got was different light shades of pink and white, no grey. I'll use this one at some point, but. Thank you.

Baby Blanket yarn of choice!

I bought the colour “flannel”, which is described as pastel pink, grey, and white. It’s pretty, and I like the texture of the yarn - not too soft, not too hard, and no pesky fuzzies to pick off after knitting which I appreciate. I wish the colours were a touch more pigmented, especially the pink, and the grey sometimes looks a bit mauve in certain light (or I need new glasses) but overall, it’s quite lovely.

Very misleading name - Not at all soft

Main point: for a yarn that's supposed to be baby soft, it is not despite all the countless reviews that say it is, so proceed with caution when purchasing. Bought 4 skeins of this for a baby blanket, and knew pretty immediately out of the box there was no way I could use this for literally anything that would touch a human's skin, much less a baby's. Worth nothing that I didn't check the lots but 3 were packaged together in manufacture's plastic and the fourth was loose and not from the same bundle. Texture is very, very rough and scratchy, and I tried multiple methods to soften it (soak with vinegar, wash with hot water and softener, steaming it) with really no luck - It's acrylic so I wasn't expecting much in terms of trying to soften it. On the positive side the colors are cute in an older fashioned 90's baby sort of way if you're into that, but I would absolutely not recommend using it for anything that is worn or used for babies or even adults. I bet my cats will love the blanket I make for them of this yarn though.

Not soft

In whose universe is this yarn considered SOFT? I am making a baby blanket with this yarn and plan to wash it when I am finished. If washing it doesn’t soften it, I won’t purchase this again. Bernat Super Value is softer.

• Thanks so much for your feedback! We totally get that everyone has their own idea of what “soft” feels like—what works great for one person might not feel the same to someone else. Some people do find this yarn soft enough for baby items, while others prefer something like Bernat Super Value, which you mentioned. We recommend giving it a wash once your blanket is finished—often that does help soften the texture. But if it still doesn’t feel right to you, we appreciate you giving it a try, and we’re happy to help recommend something softer for future projects.
