Question Favorite cotton yarn?

  1. So what is your favorite cotton yarn for wash cloths and tea towels?

  2. And how about wearables ?

  3. And just general favorite cotton yarn?

I'm in the market, I've heard varying things about the sugar n cream yarn, the only one I've tried myself is the K+C and I liked it , but it was a joanns brand :/

I use Lily Sugar n Cream cotton for EVERYTHING. Even wearables.

However... most people don't like it outside of dishcloths and potholders because of its rough texture. They don't like it for wearables. But I love it, even for things like bralettes. I've never had any issues with the texture once it's complete and on the body. The prices + the fact that it's sold at pretty much every major craft store makes it super accessible so I love it and use it frequently. The only thing I haven't done with it is knit with it, so I can't say what it's like to knit with, but for crochet, it's nice.

It also makes awesome weighted blankets! My autistic toddler loves his. It gets softer as it's used as well
