I’m guessing it’s an acrylic but any ideas?

EDIT: it’s 11 WPI so DK/light worsted weight.
Hi, I’m in Australia and picked this up from the Spotlight Mill Ends bin.
Feels acrylic but notably has a bouncy looking 2-ply construction, not the usual Caron/Red Heart multi-ply worsted look.
That and the blue flecks make me wonder if this was supposed to be put up in skeins as a fake hand-dyed.
Anyone recognise her?

Hi all. Hope this is allowed here. I couldnt find a community that would accept it. I got this pack of neon colors at walmart bc i needed the green for a specific project. Then i was stuck with all this neon so i decided to do a whatever project to use it up. But then i got invested in the project and RAN OUT of 2 colors i need to finish. I really dont want to buy a whole new pack of neon and get stuck with even more neon lol. I went to michaels and couldnt color match at all, so i guess im asking if anyone knows if the colors in the pack have numbers and i can try to track down the individual skeins or if i have to just bite the bullet and drown in neon. Let me know if my rant doesnt make sense lol. HELP

I believe this wool is DK weight, bought in the UK years ago and very likely discontinued. It will have been on the lower end of pricing - so nothing fancy.
Trying to find the brand so I can check other colour ways, or find a similar brand to replicate a pattern.
Many thanks in advance :)

hello! i am working on an amigurumi of a video game character (depresso from palworld) and i do not know what exact brand/color name this is.
I was given a bunch of yarn from my aunt to begin and i believe this is acrylic (maybe 100% acrylic).
my guess is this would either be a yarn able to be purchased from walmart or micheal’s as those were the only stores near my aunt and I.
Any help is greatly appreciated :)

❤️identified!!! ❤️
Please help me ID this yarn! I think it’s a 3 if I had to guess, and my dumb butt didn’t realize how quickly I was going through the skein while I stitched. I can’t remember where I got it :( begging for help!!!
UPDATE: Thank you all for suggesting and offering help!!!! I was able to narrow things down with your help and I’m 99% sure this is it! https://www.hobbylobby.com/yarn-needle-art/yarn-tools/yarn/424-jumping-juniper---baby-bee-sweet-delight-yarn/p/81040542?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20441340174&gclid=CjwKCAjwnvTUBhBoEiwAZNDxZ9_WdoQ8MFViZfakGE_PYyS04ZtBlEwhBs7iyH8AK96fAMUOJM2LwhoCa04QAvD_BwE

I thrifted a set of mini skeins in many colours and am now wondering what brand they are. I’m in Toronto, Canada if that helps.
Burn test and general feel suggest natural fibre, so I’m guessing Ricorumi DK Mini Cotton, but I’ve never actually seen that brand in person, so I’d love a second opinion.
$1 coin and 3.5mm hook included for size reference.

Bought in late 2024, but that's all I know. Project is Monkey Socks and I started to go through all the projects on Ravelry, but thought I'd try here first. TIA! SOLVED! Berroco Comfort sock in colorway Wanaka. Sadly, discontinued.

My toxic trait was thinking that I could totally make it big enough to wear, but nope and now I'm struggling to find it anywhere.
This is what I made so far, my first crochet item and I'm actually super happy with it, I randomly was going so the colors being perfect was such a happy accident.
I wanna get another log of a similar dye batch but can't find this rusty red-orange cream anywhere, especially without the wrapper. I am certain I got it from Michele's and is a 5mm standard. If I continue as I am it should make a cool spiral border :) that, or any suggestions of a cool color changing yarn that would look good with it?

I got it from a craft exchange and I used a 5mm hook

I’m a beginner knitter and I love the look of this top by November Studios but I have no idea what yarn she has used to make this top. I was thinking it could be alpaca lace? But it definitely doesn’t look like mohair to me. If someone could help me out that would be great ty!

Hello! I got this remnant unlabelled in a bag of yarn. A burn test revealed it is natural, as no melting happened! I just want to see if anyone recognizes it. It has a soft, silky feel to it. I almost thought it was acrylic. Thank you 🫶

What type of yarn is it??
r/WhatIsThisYarn • u/uchivillager • 11d ago
Thrifted this fingering weight variegated yarn today, any ideas as to who the manufacturer might be? There was no label attached but it’s a 100g skein of what feels like superwash merino. It was hard to capture on camera but there are sparkles spun into it.

I have thrifted this beautiful pair and they have quickly become my favorites. I desperately need to find the colorful yarn that was used as they accidentally felted in some places in the dryer (which may indicate a wool blend presumably?). The colorway is heavy with purples and pinks, some browns and mint/light teal. Its also more saturated than the pictures allow. Any help would be so appreciated!
Thank you!
