Have you found some really nice yarn and are you working on a project with it right now?
I’d love some suggestions because I’d like to buy some more yarn soon and try something different from ribbon yarn. So I’d appreciate any input :)
Happy crocheting and knitting :)

Hey

So, depending on what I’m crocheting, I use the following yarns:

Catania, Superglanz, Limone, Playa

Batika, Novela,

Catania Grande

various yarns from on-line; they have different lines

and I also like to buy yarn from Supergarne; for example, I really love the bamboo yarn

Schulgarn from Bellalana

Teddy yarn

Soft-Mouline from KK (Klaus Koch Collection)

hand-dyed sock yarn

and many more

it simply depends on what you like to crochet and which hooks you have available :)

Hi muetzekatze,

one of my favorite yarns is Jawoll Magic by Lang. It’s actually a sock yarn with gorgeous color gradients, but it’s really too good to use “just” for socks. That’s why I also use it for baby booties, shawls… Likewise, Kolibri by Rellana and Meilenweit Magico by Lana Grossa are lovely too. But they’re all quite similar

Best regards, Nici

That reminds me of something I was thinking a few days ago: it would be nice if the gallery could include which yarn was used to make the items. Then, if I really like a piece, I could get the right yarn for it right away. Or is that too much “yarn advertising”???
I guess that’s more a question for the platform owner ;-)

Oh, and one more thing. One of my favorite suppliers is Woll-factory. I absolutely have to include some Noro yarn in my next order *grin*—I’ve had my eye on it for a long time

I feel the same way as Sternen-Welt — I’ve ordered from there too. I also enjoy knitting with On-line, Catania and a few others.

My favorites are the yarns from Drops Design—affordable and great quality!

 Right now, I have a ton of leftover yarn in there—I need to stock up again soon.

@Hamster
If you have lots of colorful leftover yarn, maybe you can make a few pretty little things with it. But a big yarn shopping spree is always a good thing. Have you found anything yet? Or are you still looking or ordering yarn?
