Our take on the Red Heart Soft Worsted Acrylic Yarn White 5oz 3 Pack

Red Heart Soft is a 100% acrylic worsted-weight yarn sold in 5 oz skeins of about 256 yards each, here in a three-pack of white. It is known for a soft, low-squeak hand for an acrylic, a smooth twist that crochets and knits evenly, and easy machine washing and drying. The 17-stitch gauge to 4 inches fits standard worsted patterns and US 7–9 needles. It suits blankets, baby items, hats and amigurumi where durability and easy care matter more than natural fiber. Against wool it is cheaper to care for and more consistent; against premium acrylics it is softer than Super Saver but less drapey than blends with wool or alpaca.

Pros
  • Soft hand for an acrylic, with little of the squeak cheaper acrylics have
  • Consistent thickness and smooth twist, so stitches look even
  • Machine washable and dryable with good color retention
  • Worsted gauge of 17 stitches to 4 inches fits most standard patterns
  • Solid white takes dye and works as a neutral base for colorwork
Cons
  • Acrylic pills and fuzzes with friction over time
  • No natural fiber warmth or breathability; can feel clammy
  • Skeins can vary slightly in shade between dye lots
  • Splits more than tightly spun yarns on sharp needles

Questions and answers

Is Red Heart Soft good for blankets?
Yes. The worsted weight and acrylic durability suit afghans, and it machine washes and dries. Expect some pilling on a blanket that gets daily use.
How does it compare with Red Heart Super Saver?
Soft is softer and has better drape than Super Saver, with a smoother twist. Super Saver is stiffer and more durable, which some prefer for bags and toys.
What needle and hook sizes does it use?
It knits at about 17 stitches to 4 inches on US 7–9 needles. For crochet, a US I-9 to J-10 hook gives a similar worsted gauge.
Can I machine wash and dry items made with it?
Yes. It is 100% acrylic and holds up to machine washing and tumble drying on low. Avoid high heat to limit pilling and distortion.
How much yarn is in the three-pack?
Each skein is 5 oz and about 256 yards, so the pack holds roughly 768 yards total. That is enough for a small throw or several hats.
Does the white match across skeins?
White is a solid shade and usually consistent, but acrylic dye lots can vary slightly. Buy enough for one project at once to keep the color even.
Where is the Red Heart Soft Worsted Acrylic Yarn White 5oz 3 Pack cheapest?
At Walmart, for $14.19, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Red Heart Soft Worsted Acrylic Yarn White 5oz 3 Pack?
