- 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.
