Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic

The put-up is all wrong. The hanks were in bad shape even before I removed them from the package. Some were so twisted and tangled that it took a good long time to get them onto the yarn swift. For that reason alone I would never buy this yarn/thread again. Yarn dot com wanted me to send them a photograph of the yarn but I don't have a digital camera. So they said I could send the yarn back. However, postage from Canada is not cheap, and this is more than 10 hanks, some of which are a tangled, useless mess. It's not like they could rewind them and resell, so I guess they think I am lying about this problem and trying to get something for nothing. The few hanks I was able, with some difficulty, to get into a workable ball produced a fairly nice crocheted fabric but now I don't think I'll have enough yarn to finish the project. The marled (two-tone) yarn hanks were the ones which caused problems. The two solid coloured ones were OK. I do not know how the persons who packed the marled ones could fail to notice that the hanks were in bad shape right from the get-go. It looked as if the hanks had fallen out of the paper label and so they shoved them back in any old way. I'm tired of complaining, now. I'll let this go, but not deal with this company anymore.

I’ve been knitting with Tahki Cotton Classic for years and in many kinds of projects. It’s my favorite cotton yarn because it is nice to knit with and keeps its shape after many wears and washes. I only wish that WEBS would keep their stock up so that there would be more colors available as they used to. Perhaps with the new owners, this will improve.

Lovely color......Blueberry, and has a nice sheen to it.

I love this yarn, and wish it wasn't being discontinued.

Very uniform smooth cotton. Few knots . Easy to use .

Tahki Cotton Classic is awesome for amigurumi. It's very easy to work with, with no tendency to split. And I happened to find out that the colors are very stable. I ran out of some light brown that I'd had stashed away for years, just as I was coming to the snout of my tyrannosaurus. The skeins that came this week match it perfectly.

I like that yarn just hate the that I have to wind it into a ball and I'm new to this so I don't have the equipment to do it and ugh is it frustrating to unwind

Just my FAVORITE COTTON yarn to use. I've tried others, but because I use it for Crocheting afghans, it stands up well. Because I know colors come and go, I try to order as much inventory as I can afford. If it's going to be discontinued I'd like to be notified ASAP so I can secure as much as my credit card can stand. Thanks for being the Vendor who provides access to my favorite yarn.

Love this yarn and have knit with it for years and years. Love the feel of the cotton in the sweaters I knit. Right now, I'm knitting a Henley-style sweater with a collar and re-wrote the pattern to be in the round so I can knit it in community knitting.

I love the Cotton Classic yarn by Tahki - Stacy - Charles, Inc. I've used it for many, many years. The only thing I hate about it is that they no longer have the vast variety colors they use to have when I discovered it about 15 years ago. Oh well, things change. If I could go on a field trip, it would be to go to Greece to see the factory and how they processed their skeins.
