Description

The listing, Mystery Yarn: Blue With White Acrylic has ended.

This listing is for another yarn I received from a co-worker. It came to me in a hand-wound ball, with no label. It appears to be a blue acrylic yarn, with a wrap of white nylon, perhaps? (Could possibly be tencel or rayon, but I'm fairly certain the skein is 100% acrylic.)

After being washed and re-skeined on my 1.67 yard Ashford niddy-noddy, this yarn measures out at approximately 170 yards, and approx. 17-18 WPI, which should make it a fingering-type. Soft and smooth! I would keep it myself, but I've already achieved SABLE. This yarn is begging to be used!

This yarn comes from pet-friendly households, but the pets are not allowed to knit. ;)

Good luck, and happy bidding!

I think it could be Red Heart's Baby Econo Pompadour Sport Weight, looks like stuff I've used for my nephews blankets.

It could also be Bernat Softee Baby Sparkle. I've used that yarn on a couple of baby blankets and this one looks like the stuff I've used.

Thanks for the info. I've never seen a yarn like this in the shops, so I was at a total loss on an i.d. :)

So you think this is smaller than a worsted weight yarn??? Thanks!

I think it's closer to a sport weight. :)
