  • It comes in 200g cakes of yarn with 358m per cake.
  • It varies in price all over the internet, but i’ve found it averages at about $16 a cake.
  • A 6mm crochet hook is recommended or 4.5mm knitting needles.
  • Crochet gauge – 10″ x 10″ equals  16 rows by 13 stitches.
  • There are a variety of solid and mixed colours depending on where you purchase.
  • The label states that Comfy Cotton Blend is machine washable and dryable.

My Observations

  • Lion Brand Comfy Cotton Blend is very enjoyable to crochet with, although it can catch a bit sometimes. I find a larger crochet hook easier to use
  • It’s perfect for spring/summer projects, being a light yarn and great for clothes too with the added polyester.
  • I love the variety of colours and it is very reasonably priced, although it can be hard to find depending on the colour you’re after.
  • The polyester added with the cotton gives it a lovely drape.
  • I think Comfy Cotton Blend is really nice for hats, accessories and garments….I have made a sleeveless cardigan with it, which I love!! Paid pattern available here.
