Let me begin by saying that I hate cotton. It doesn’t move right and it doesn’t stretch which affects the knitting experience as well as the finished object. It’s also not particularly soft. This yarn is different! It feels more like a bamboo mix. It also moves just like wool. I am knitting a baby sweater and the ribbing stretches the way it should. It is definitely soft enough for next to baby skin items and I found the color representation to be on point (I did get the flamingo pink) perhaps the reviewers who complained about the colors need to adjust their monitors? So far this is a wonderful knitting experience. I will see how it blocks later. I am also looking forward to crocheting with it. Very nice yarn.

This yarn is very soft and I appreciate existence of fingering weight for this type of fiber. It is ideal for summer baby sets. I ordered "Flamingo" color and it is exactly the same color that is on my computer screen. Flamingo bird has no bluish undertones. It is soft pink with warm undertones and yarn is exactly like that. Will be ordering other colors soon.

Why is Knit Picks so completely unresponsive to its customers calls for more color choices for its Comfy Yarn as well as truer representations of the colors on its website? Please respond.

I just had to write a counter-review to the review of FLAMINGO. I have used this color for several projects and it is definitely PINK, not orange or coral.

OK, the yarn IS great....I will not take that away, but boy is the color chart off.....I wanted a soft baby pink...ordered Flamingo ...."a delicate pink with blue undertones" nope nothing like that compared to the picture...and the color is like a light faded coral....So now do I order the Peony..."warm pink with orange overtones"...??? I don't want orange...I want pink!!! Do love this orange but your color is so way off.........FLAMINGO IS NOT PINK !!! at all...don't let the picture fool you.

I love this cotton fingering yarn. I've purchased it for a baby dress yoke. It's the perfect weight. It is soft and has nice drape. I think it would be a good idea to purchase a colour chart if there is one.

I love this yarn. Such a soft texture. Drape and light sheen are beautiful. Haven't had any problems with knots or colors being off. Slightly splitty. Wish there were more color choices.

I bought this yarn in the Peapod colorway for a summer dress I was making for a little girl. First off, this yarn is so soft and wearable that I am definitely going to use it in the future for my own summer garments. The stitch definition is great. Also the color was just beautiful and fun. I would love to see more color options.

I am knitting up wonderful cotton socks and this yarn is fabulous! Great textured details, soft, yet it feels like it will wear well. Wondering why it took me so long... I cannot wear any wool.

I absolutely love this yarn! It crochets up beautifully. Perfect for thinner light weight Spring and Summer shawls and scarves. It is very hard to find such beautiful yarn in cotton for an affordable price. I would love to see more color choices coming out in this yarn, especially more lighter colors.

I live in a mostly warm climate and have been trying to now knit with cotton. This yarn fits the bill as it is soft, easy to work with, washable, and inexpensive. HOWEVER, Seriously folks, MORE COLORS ARE NEEDED. Just regular pretty colors please.

So far, this yarn knits up nicely and feels very soft. However, I was very disappointed in the colors. I have an excellent computer and video card but still the colors look very different in person. If you're looking for a true pink, you won't find it with this yarn. Flamingo is 100% peach, not pink. And Peony is more of a faded rust color. So disappointing.

I've been designing, making and selling doll clothes and patterns all over the world since 1991. I just started using this fingering weight cotton and fell in love with it. If there were as many colors as Palette, I'd go hog wild having fun with designs. This yarn is so soft, knits up evenly, and it's perfect for doll clothes on a 2.75mm needle. Please, please, please do so many more colors!!!!! My patterns always recommend Knit Picks and nothing else.

one of my favorites, been using it a long time. STILL...need more colors!! Not even an orange?!! Thanks, KnitPicks!

Lovely yarn! So soft and good quality. The only problem was all my skeins had pieces of fuzz of them, but I'm not so picky about that because they're easy to remove. Made bracelets out of these and the silky quality is great for my sensitive skin. It wasn't itchy at all and I could wear it all day!

Wonderful easy-care yarn. Please more colors please. Also does cotton yarn ever come in heathers?

I love this yarn!! It's beautiful, so soft and a dream to knit with. I bought some to make a baby sweater as a gift and it's coming out so perfectly that I want to make myself a cardigan with this yarn as well. 10/10 will buy again.

I love this yarn! It's so soft and smooth and glides along the nickel plated circulars I purchased for a beret I'm making. Love it!!

I love that this yarn has the softness of cotton but doesn't split like it. It's equally at home in a delicate wedding shawl or harder wearing items. I only wish that it came in larger 100g (or bigger - a girl can dream) skeins and had more colors. I can't even make a rainbow. There should always be a complete rainbow available in every yarn. That's more important than eleventy shades of blue.

Love this yarn! I design and knit clothes for small baby dolls. It's perfect and so soft!

Lovely yarn to work with, and the color is beautiful! Just be aware that the center pull skein is impossible to find, as another commenter noted. I am rewinding each ball from the outside into a center-pull ball to avoid having huge gobs of knots to untangle.

The colors are all off. Love the feel of the yarn though. Wish the colors were more like the pictures on website.

I love comfy yarn--especially for baby clothes--but the color selection in the fingering weight is awful.

This is my new favorite. I am obsessed with it. The only thing that would make it better is if they offered more colors. LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! This Yarn!!

This yarn is so soft. The garment feels like a soft t-shirt and my grandson will love it. I had no trouble with it pilling or having lint come from it. No splitting easy to knit. Highly recommend and it will be so easy to care for since it is machine wash and dry.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I love the cozy feeling! This yarn is aptly named. However the white is more of an off white! Be warned about that. This is the best fingering weight cotton I have ever used!

Be warned: this yarn does pill and leave lint on dark fabrics, but the incredible softness makes up for it! Really wish the fingering weight came in seraphim and silver sage, too!

THE YARN: Very nice and soft with a sturdy feel. I love the colors, but a little warning to those of you who are considering buying "white" - it's really more of an off-white/cream color. Did notice a slight amount of pilling, but that seemed to go away as the fabric worked up. Beautiful stitch definition. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE: Wow!! I'm so amazed. I originally ordered one ball each of "semolina,""pea pod,""peony,"and "lilac mist," but found out that I needed more yarn of each color for the project I was making. In my order I requested KnitPicks to match the lot numbers of the yarn I was ordering with the numbers of the same yarn I ordered previously(mentioned above), and accordingly listed them. When the package arrived the first thing I did was compare the lot numbers...AND THEY MATCHED PERFECTLY!! The package didn't even take any longer to reach my doorstep, either(yay!). Thank you KnitPicks.

This is my first use of Comfy - I am very happy with the way it is working up. Nice and smooth - and I haven't noticed much shedding, as others have mentioned. I am using Flamingo - nice soft apricot color but I also ordered Semolina and Peapod and they are almost neon in their brightness - I do like the creamy white that is Swan and the Seafoam- more delicate colors are needed .

Love this yarn. Best socks ever. Please more colors!

It does pill, which drives me crazy, but it is soft and sturdy. At the moment, I'm going to buy white and try to dye it up myself; I hope it dyes nicely, but I would love to see them in more colors.

Please please bring back Green and Sweet potato.

The yarn itself is very soft and smooth which is nice. However, the colors don't seem to be true to what is portrayed in the pictures. The Pea color is much brighter than what is shown and the Parchment a little more gray. It seems that the colors that appear in the cart are more like the ones you get. Moreover, having more color options would be nice as an alternative to palette yarn for those allergic to animal fibers.

I ordered this wool for making Christmas balls and it is the softest wool I have ever used. I cannot wait to order more of it. I would recommend this to anyone who want a great quality product for a very reseaonable price.

Lovely yarn. Nice and soft, works up well. I bought it for a shawl for someone with a wool allergy. The only caveat, and it wasn't a drawback for me, but might be for some: the white isn't a pure white, but a natural cotton white. So, if you're looking for a "pure as the driven snow" white, that's not it.

I love this yarn! It is so SO soft, and the colours are just beautiful! Really enjoying knitting tons of socks with it! 2 pairs of socks out of 3 balls of yarn, for $4.50 a pair of socks! I'd call that a bargain! Plus a little bit of shipping... and FAST shipping! And that's to Canada! Very impressed with both the yarn and Knitpicks!

I did 24 pairs of socks, for my family Christmas 2015. I started in July! Love the yarn. I'm also, a doll maker, crochet and knit, everyone loves the texture of the yarn.

Although this yarn gave me a good stitch definition, this yarn is shedding A LOT. Moreove, I had ordered white but what came was more like off white. Knitted it anyways, but I know I will not use this yarn again.

Having used the Comfy worsted and like it a lot I was expecting more of the fingering weight version. The worsted is soft and has some spring to it while this thinner version is more stringy so it doesn't really stretch much while you knit with it. But it is soft, which is good. However, it is knitting up nicely in a simple lace pattern and is stretchy enough as a fabric. I also was a bit disappointed with the colour I ordered. I wanted ivory to knit a baby cardigan to match an oyster-coloured wedding outfit, but the ivory is much more brown than the photo makes it look. Now I will have to order the white and try for an off-white cardigan instead.

I wanted so much to like this yarn. Before knitting I thought the fibers felt of poor quality and loose, almost like unspun cotton. Swatching confirmed my feelings. The yarn began pilling on the needles and when I rubbed the swatch between my fingers, whole fibers easily came off in my hands. I was dissapointed and returned all the balls purchased.

Perfect yarn to knit baby dresses!!! Used Hollyberry to knit a Christmas holiday dress and Lilac Mist to knit an Easter dress for my soon to be 1 year old great niece. Will use Seafoam next! Find my projects on Ravelry - my username is muffymammamail :-)

I haven't actually used the yarn yet. I generally love KnitPicks but this yarn arrived and I eagerly took out my needles to make swatch for a pattern it's intended for. I could not, for the life of me, find the start of the center pull. I finally wound up pulling the middle clump out carefully and what I wound up with was a tangled pile that took me something like 3 1/2 hours to untangle and wind into a center-pull cake. I know it took this long because I watched 4 episodes of Law & Order from my dvr while I struggled with it. I'm hoping the yarn itself knits up great but I'm not looking forward to the moment when this first ball runs out and I have to start another.

For Oona - I have used comfy for socks, and it worked out very well for me. In fact, I am at Knit Picks today to see if more colors have been added, because I wanted a few more pair of Comfy socks, but see there is still only a very limited selection of colors. I was hoping for a neutral shade somewhere between the doe and parchment, and maybe a light taupe, but the present colors don't appeal to me very much for socks, or I might be knitting most of my socks with Comfy. Wool socks seem to wear out on me very quickly, but this cotton fiber has held up very well, comparatively! I duplicate stitch over the worn spots on my socks, but would prefer doing less of that by having more made from cotton, so I keep checking for new colors. I found Comfy easy to knit with and very comfortable to wear, also.

I used this yarn for socks. It's ok for those that can't tolerate wool but I don't expect them to last very long. There are other non-wool sock yarns available that will hold up. Better suited for baby things, bags, and summer tops/sweaters. I think I'll make a washcloth with my leftovers. A very nice yarn for what it is, just not a sock yarn.

I really love this yarn. It's so soft and a real pleasure to knit with and wear. It also washes up really nicely, and gets even softer. I live in a warm climate where it's too warm to wear wool about 8/9 months of the year, so this is a wonderful alternative. The small amount of added acrylic gives this yarn a nice stretch, unlike pure cotton yarns. I love the colours it's presently available in, but I'd love to see more! I've made a few cardigans, short sleeved tops and even lacy socks in this yarn :-)

Knitting a lace baby blanket with this yarn. Feels like cashmere to knit with but I know it will survive a wash. Love it.

I have had problems with cotton yarns in the past, so I reluctantly ordered this one. The first impression is how soft the yarn is... super soft. I have hand washed the shawl twice and so far no pilling. The feel and look is just wonderful, and the hand of the yarn is very good. I made a half PI shawl, and the drape is amazing. Very happy with my purchase.

I absolutely love this yarn! Currently knitting up a cardigan with it in Flamingo and it is the perfect shade of light pink! The feel is amazing and it knits like a dream! It would be great for baby items as well. I will definitely be using this yarn again in the future!

As a person that is very allergic to wool I LOVE this yarn! Like others have said I too wish they had it in more colors. Especially, an orange and true red vs just the holly. BTW, the Hollyberry is gorgeous, but when you're something for a little boy in superman colors... well A simple red would have worked better.

Great yarn. Would love to see more colors though. I have made a few baby blankets and a few circular vests for girls. Working on another blanket. Just love it.

I HATE this yarn. I've worked with hair thin silk and another KnitPick linen yarn, Lindy Chain and they were fine. This yarn (a) comes in hideous colors, nothing appropriate for a baby so we picked Semolina, which is a loud, ugly gold. I'm trying to bleach it down. And the yarn itself is torture to work with. It splits like a cheap acrylic. Won't use it again. But then, you get what you pay for, and this yarn is cheap.

I love this yarn. It's very soft. I knit sweaters with it using size 4 needles. It usually takes 6 skeins, which makes it economical. It washes well too. I just wish there were more colors.

I am currently knitting a fine gauge cabled cardigan with this yarn. It gives good stitch definition and feels very nice. Silky and soft. I am finding, however, that it is shedding a little fluff as I knit which makes me worried about how the finished piece will hold up. I bought the semolina color which is a little darker than I expected but it is a nice subtle golden yellow that is not bright or harsh

This yarn is so soft and pleasant to work with. I am making motifs to join together and the cotton doesn't give me "yarn burn" after working with it for long periods of time. Can definitely see it would make beautiful socks, as well. The colors are beautiful. One small note would be that it can split more easily with hooks that are "sharper," e.g. Susan Bates. I have been using Clover hooks which glide through easily and don't snag often. Would love to see more colors!

I love the feel of this yarn and I would like to see something in either Comfy or Shine in an even lighter weight yarn closer to a laceweight heavy lace weight for crochet and fine lace shawl. I would also like to see more color selection. I do a lot of baby knitting and the more color variety the better. I was disappointed though in my last order. Since my monitor does not accurately portray colors I was depending on the color description and Flamingo and Peony were definitely not pink but coral and almost a terracotta orange. Since I have an order to fill for a baby hat. I am at a loss to find a nice soft pink....I may have to split some Shine Sport to get a light enough weight yarn....Please more color selections and if the color varies lot to lot please recheck that the description matches....

Love, love, love this yarn for socks. I'm allergic to wool and finding sock yarn without wool gets to be a challenge. I'm just waiting for Knitpicks to come up with a bamboo sock yarn and I will be buying one in every color.

I would give this yarn a much higher rating if it wasn't for the fact that the finished garment, a sweater in my case, very quickly looks worn and shabby. The surface pills immediately Something I noticed while knitting was that it releases very very fine fibers that fly in the air and land everywhere, I was constantly inhaling them in both nose and mouth. . It is, however, incredibly soft and comfy, probably the loveliest, softest yarn I ever used, and makes for a wonderfully cozy and warm sweater. I will recommend it warmly to anyone who does not worry too much about a worn-looking, fuzzy and pilling end product. I have 2 skeins left over and will make myself a pair of socks!

I make stuffed animals and full size afghans from this fingering yarn. All my grandkids love them. Making a full size "blankie" from fingering yarn is expensive but they are gorgeous. Am working on a request from my husband at the moment. I do agree though, that the colors are very limited.

I love this yarn. Its very soft, and the color was really pretty. Admittedly, I only got the color Blackberry but it was exactly the color i expected. This yarn would make a great pair of socks, but i used it to make a shawl/scarf hybrid. It keeps my neck fairly warm. :)

This is a query, not a review! Has anyone made socks with this yarn? I have a number of family members who don't tolerate wool, and would love to make them some special footwear.

Love this yarn, it's very soft and looks lovely. I desperately wish it came in as many colors as Palette, as it is such a great alternative for summer things, people with wool allergies, machine wash-ability, the list goes on! More colors!

I've only used this yarn to make fingerless mittens to help protect my hands at work (I have severe eczema). It makes for very soft, durable and comfortable mittens, but they do look worn out and fuzzy very quickly. It's probably better suited for items like tops and hats but I still like it for my mitts. I love the colours, but it would be nice to have more.

I have been reading the previous reviews about the white yarn not being snow white. I look at it this way, the cotton fiber has to go through a bleaching process to get that whiteness. The less processes the fiber has to go through the better;better for the environment and our bodies since we absorb those chemicals through our skin. And this is the softest yarn I have ever felt, I have been knitting cardigans for my granddaughter out of this.

the yarn is so soft!! the colour though is a bit off. I ordered white, expecting to see a pure white and it wasn't. It's kind of light cream-ivory, not very white

I love this yarn. It makes great socks. I also made a pretty feather and fan scarf. More colors please.

Love this yarn! So soft and, like the name implies, comfy! Wishing hard for more colors choices, especially navy!

I loved the yard itself; the fingering yarn is perfect for intricate baby items. However I only rated it Average due to the fact that I ordered white and although the cover said it was white it was actually off white/ivory. Not sure where the mess-up was but if you really want a bright white (like the picture) don't order this.

Please add more colors.

This yarn was perfect for a spring/summer hat for a friend that is allergic to wool. It was super soft and easy to work with. I got it in Planetarium and it was a gorgeous color!

I have made a baby blanket and a dress for a baby girl using this yarn. Very soft and light. Please add more colors.

Love love love this yarn. More colors in all the weights of comfy, please!! More greens especially!

I made a cute pair of baby pants with this yarn -- so soft, very "comfy!"

This is the best weight for steamy hot climates. I do wish you would add more colors especially red.

I'm making a pair of fingerless gloves with this beautiful, soft yarn and they're going to feel so good to wear! I agree with the others...more colours please!

I hope Knit Picks will add many more colors!

This yarn is so soft! One of my favorites! Fingering is great for scarves and shawls! Would love it in a denim color. More blues, please!
