Description

Red Heart Gemstone Yarn combines two printed plies that are twisted together to make gorgeous color combinations that resemble the many rich colors found in Earth’s gemstones. The broad range of shades to pick from make this the perfect yarn to knit or crochet unique fashion pieces and luxe home décor.

The CYC 5 weight Red Heart Gemstone Yarn comes in a sophisticated palette of 18 rich color combinations.

Review Summary:

Absolutely love it! The colors I chose are gorgeous! This is very similar to Puzzle yarn, which is less expensive, but this has more colors available, and I prefer some of these combinations by far. I don’t like all the colors, but I find that irrelevant as there are enough I do like for now (though I REALLY HOPE they keep coming out with new colors!). I’ve been working a corner to corner sweater (making up a basic pattern as I go) and this yarn is not only beautiful, but a pleasure to work with.
When there are knots (which aren’t very often), only one of the two plies is knotted in any given place, which makes them small and very easy to hide. Contrary to what others said it pulls from the center beautifully for me. Getting that big blob when you first find an end happens with most yarns, but actually I found the center end was outside and very easy to find on all my skeins so far. Zero blob! There are thin and thick spots, so if you don’t like that, don’t choose this type of yarn. For me it’s no bother at all, and the finished panels look absolutely lovely and uniform.
