I used Cascata Laja (07) to make my first blanket and absolutely loved working with this yarn. I had to switch hooks to find the right combination for my style and the yarn but once I found it was like I had been crocheting for years. I used 2 cakes of yarn to finish a 36 inch by 30 inch baby blanket half double crochet stitch (US terms) and only found one flawed section in the yarn that I was able to cut out and fix with an invisible know. I will be buying more of this yarn in different colorways for future projects and I cannot wait to use it again. I loved the feel of the yarn during the stitching process and the blanket came out extremely soft. If you haven't tried this yarn yet add it to your cart today!

I love the length of the color changes --- long enough that it doesn't look like a mess when crocheted, short enough to gratify your attention span! I was worried it was going to pill a ton, and while I my project is still under construction and it won't be a wearable, it's held up to lots of frogging, with no pill in sight. I'm happy with my purchase and will likely buy more in the future. In the future, I would love to see a version of this blown/tube yarn in a cotton + wool blend.

My fave yarn now! Excellent stitch definition so is a dream to crochet. Very lightweight but warm due to the blown tube construction. I normally HATE working with cotton, but I adore this. I bought no. 9 to make the monstera jumper (nearly there!) and loved it so much I bought another 3 in a different shade to make another jumper.

Gorgeous yarn! I loved working with it and because of the type of "tube" like shape of the strands, it's super easy to still see your stitches even though the color changes lots. Perfect color changes, great strength, easy to work with.
It does halo a bit after being worked and frogged a bit, but nothing major.

The seamless color transitions were perfect for my shawl project. Nachi slowly moves from vibrant pinks to warm reds, to delicate rose, and even a hint of rich burgundy. I enjoyed crocheting with this cotton / acrylic blend yarn. I used 2 balls and a 6 mm crochet hook and my project has lovely drape and stitch definition.
