I find this thread to be superior to other similar threads from the past (including J&P Coats Knit Cro Sheen) as it is smoother/silkier and has a bit more stretch to it. It seems also to split less when working with it. One issue seems that different colors seem to have slightly different thickness for reasons I do not understand, resulting in finished products that are of varying sizes, though this usually is not an issue. Something to keep in mind is that dye lots do vary, and it is important to buy enough of a particular dye lot when you first make your purchase so that you won't have to buy more later, which might not match. Yarnspirations is NOT good with this. They do not guarantee that all of the spools of any particular color you order will be from the same dye lot.

Loved the different varieties of the variegated string! All of the colors I was looking for and colors I found that I wasn’t looking for. 💕

It has been many years since I crocheted using thread and tiny hooks instead of yarn and bigger hooks. My Mom needed help with a doily pattern so I decided to crochet the doily for her. Now I have made other doilies. This brand thread is the only one I would use to crochet.

I just received my purchase of Aunt Lydia's Crochet Threads and I love them all. The colors are beautiful. They are all easy to crochet with and the texture is soft. I bought the Delft, Orchid Pink, Spring Green, and Taupe. I have begun making doilies and bookmarks for Christmas!

I create doilies and this is the best thread out there. It works up beautifully and blocks extremely well. I have a huge stash of this thread in every available color and will continue to use it as long as it continues to exist.

Yarnspirations is my go to for all my Aunt Lydia crochet thread. They always have the best choices of colors and they ship quickly!
