New Bernat Blanket Perfect Phasing yarn is fresh in 2023 at select JOANN stores and Joann.com. This is a new technology that colour grades ideally.
Testing with Caron Colorama Halo last year, the technology is now with Bernat Blanket this year.
There is no colour blocking of a shade; the colour seamlessly changes and, depending on your project gives a unique look.
When jumping one ball to another, if you use the first ball from the interior and go to the outside of the ball, the next ball you want to use from the outside of the ball to the interior to create the perfect appearance.
Caron Colorama Halo continues to be the perfect phasing for this year. Available at select JOANN, Walmart Canada and through yarnspirations.com as well.
Is the llama/alpaca figure in these photos a project you made? If yes, is there a pattern available? He’s too cute!
He is actually a tape measure. His tail pulls out measuring tape. 🙂 He wasn’t stitched up, he was purchased from Jimmy Beans Wool.
Hi Mikey,
How many cakes would you need for a baby blanket and what chain count would you use? Thanks for your help 🙂
Baby blankets are between 65 to 75 to start.
Mikey,
What would this yarn look like in a corner to corner moss pattern?
Thanks so much!
Gloria
I think it would look amazing but I haven’t tried it to know for sure. I have a shipment coming in next week.
Thanks so much, Mikey! I just bought some from Joann’s and am excited to try it. One question: do you have any tips for insuring that Bernat blanket yarn doesn’t twist? I don’t remember this being an issue in the past but the last few blankets I made with Dappled I spent a lot of time untwisting the yarn. Or maybe it’s my crochet technique? Thanks again!
I’ve no heard of this issue. You may want to reach out to Yarnspirations.com and ask them about it. You can contact them on the website. They may have tips in case they have seen this before.
