Review: Soft and easy to work with - This is a fine (2) yarn so the skein seems small but it's not.... it goes a long way! Didn't even use 1 skein for this project and it comes with 2!! Well made, it didn't split or unwind. Sturdy and easy to work with. I would buy again. Definitely recommend. The blue yarn is a different brand... Review: Recommend product - Very nice color and high quality yarn ❤️ ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09Q29G6LN | | Best Sellers Rank | #14,187 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #347 in Yarn | | Brand | Generic | | Brand Name | Generic | | Color | 249 GOLD | | Compatible Crochet Hook Metric Size | 2.5 millimeters | | Compatible Crochet Hook US Size | 1 | | Compatible Knitting Needle Metric Size | 3.5 millimeters | | Compatible Knitting Needle US Size | 4 | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 549 Reviews | | Item Length | 4921.26 inches | | Item Thickness | 3.5 millimeters | | Item Weight | 100 g | | Manufacturer | schachenmayr catania | | Material | Cotton | | Material Composition | Cotton 100 | | Material Type | Cotton | | Product Care Instructions | please ensure that you wash your Catania garment at 60°C for the first time.

The blue yarn is a different brand... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommend product *by A***. on July 5, 2026* Very nice color and high quality yarn ❤️ ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can't recommend enough! *by A***B on February 20, 2024* I don't understand why Amazon lists this yarn as a frequently returned item. I love it! I used it to make a few dish towels for Christmas presents, and they turned out beautiful (and they hold up perfect in the wash). I've seen other reviewers mention that there's less than expected in each skein, and this makes them overpriced, but I completely disagree. Yes, there isn't a crazy amount in each skein (it took me 2 whole skeins to make a very small gauge 17"x8" dish towel, reasonably sized), but keep in mind that 1) it is 100% cotton & well made and 2) you get two skeins for ~$9, which is comparable if not slightly more than one skein that is equal in weight/length to these two skeins added together. It all kind of evens out. I also want to add that it was almost impossible to find a 2 (Fine) yarn weight in 100% cotton that wasn't actually overpriced (the website I got my pattern from sold their 100g skeins for ~$20), so finding this yarn was a godsend lol. I highly recommend it, just keep in mind how much you'll need. For small projects, 2 skeins will likely be enough. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/415481064-set-of-2-skeins-smc-catania-originals-100-mercerized-cotton](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/415481064-set-of-2-skeins-smc-catania-originals-100-mercerized-cotton) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
