Caron Simply Soft yarn is one of Caron Yarns strongest performers of yarn in the collection, other than Caron Cakes and Caron One Pound.
Caron Simply Soft is on the thinner side of Medium #4 - 4-ply yarn. This product cannot be mixed easily with Caron One Pound, Red Heart Super Saver or Bernat Super Value as the yarn is thinner.
This product is premium-grade acrylic. It's meant for amazing clothing and well-draped items with flow, such as soft blankets, wearables, hats, scarves, and much more. An elegant baby blanket in this yarn is surely a good choice.
Premium acrylic reacts differently. The plies can separate because the premium grade acrylic doesn't stick together like value acrylic.
Premium acrylic also produces a lustre (somewhat shine) to the product to the upgraded quality.
