It's August 1st, and it's time for the fall reset of retailers in Canada and the USA.
New Patterns for Bernat Fluffee Yarn are Here. It's a generous-sized ball with bulky weight to make crochet or knit projects go much faster. The texture is air-spun with a nylon anchor that prevents shedding and allows you to stitch without snagging the yarn.
Enjoy the new launch of this product and see it's fabulous 12 colours that are available. This will be heading to retailers later this month. You may run into this product as the stores begin their fall reset.

The Twisted Time Crochet Blanket is the same written instructions as the Wonky Square using a much bigger hook and Bernat Fluffee yarn.
The colouring is different, and 4 ply medium-weight yarn is used, but the tutorial uses the same stitch work. There is no fancy border on the new twisted version, but the sky is the limit.

How similar is it to the Caron Halo yarn? I struggled using the Halo in any project as it was very difficult to identify individual stitches when crocheting, now that could be me with a tighter stitch than what's recommended. I really liked the texture/feel of it but found I could only do dc stitching. Am hoping the Bernat version is easier to use...

IT's a different material completely and holds together differently as well.
