For the smell, I've not tried it, but I've heard that you can stuff those smaller skeins into a sock and wash and dry it.

The silk they have in "A Touch of Silk" looks to be silk noil, those tweedy bits in the yarn give it away. Silk noil is the shorter fiber that is left over from making silk fabric so it doesn't have the soft and shiny quality like the pulled silk you normally think of. It has a bumpy texture and feels a bit more like cotton in texture. Landscape breeze is so gorgeous, thanks for sharing these!

I made a 100% silk noil dress once. It was wearable, luxurious, unique material and lasted for yrs and yrs. It didn't feel anything like you expect "silk ", that is not slippery or drapey. I guess it is just enough silk noil to add the.nubs to texture the yarn. Thanks for the reviews. Love to listen to you.

The danger of watching your videos about yarn is that I must buy more yarn! Thank you for your honesty and your personality! 💜

Exactly same !! I ordered the lazy days

Walked into Joann’s and found landscapes breeze and immediately fell in love with it. I made my sister a pretty long scarf with only 4-5 little skeins in Willow and I made a small dog sweater in a different color. The color transitions are amazing! I’m just sad that it’s all sold out online. Can’t wait until they restock. :)

Wow, as a hand spinner I am very impressed with your critique of the average/ or above average retail yarn. I've just rolled a one pound ball of yarn mixed with scrapes of everything. Merino, Jacob, finland, hand dyed, hand spun, art yarn , nylon, mohair acrilic. Every random yarn you could think of in a cornucopia of textures and colors. The end results are one of a kind artistry. Hang on to all of it. You can never underestimate how a simple yarn can make a project pop. All of us fiber artists are amazing creators. Your information is so real. It doesn't shame anything just reads the medium for how it hooked. Love it.

i used the faux mo in the charcoal color to crochet a sweater vest! i doubled up the strands and it turned out really light weight and soft! it is affectionately called my dust bunny vest

I love, love, love that you actually take a minute to crochet the yarn you’re reviewing so that we can see how it looks. You rock!!!!!

I'm here so quick for the yarn "snobbery" that is really helpful deep quality reviews of different types of yarn. I love this. 💜

I can't be the only one that hits the like button as soon as I see Toni can I? 😅 Even if I am ....I don't care because she's THE BEST!😍

The scrubby yarn surprised me, to be honest. I've never seen a skein of this type of yarn before, ever! And that it was soft on your skin REALLY surprised me. Am dumbfounded why Lionbrand would develop a singular, niche yarn like this only for a limited time frame. It seems to me if it is successful, they should continue to make it since it is the one yarn no one else ever makes. That Landscapes yarn reminds me of a yarn you used about 18 months ago in another review, but I think that one was a cotton yarn. Thank you once again for being such an amazing presenter. I adore your channel!

I happened to find several skeins of the scrubby yarn in the bargain bin at my local JoAnne's- and I have ZERO complaints about it. I'm generally extremely bad with crochet- for years I couldn't even maintain tension, or keep track of stiches, always fighting the yarn (and what do you know, it's always been the cheapest of worsted weight acrylic). But the scrubby yarn? Love it. A little hard to manage the first few stiches, but that's understandable, and after that it's dead simple. So much so I've made a few scrubbies from it, and usually have at least one for use in the shower. It really is fairly soft on the skin while working it up as well

Love ur reviews because u do a swatch in front of our eyes and u talk about how it is to actually work with it and the slip on the crochet hook! Ty for a detailed review

This old girl love Lion Brands!! Landscapes my FAV🌻

I always love your yarn review videos Toni, but I especially loved that you brought in questions from your Instagram audience - it really covered everything we’d want to know about these yarns 🙂 Thank you for trying out all these yarns for us!

Even your swatch is beautiful. It's amazing. Thank you for sharing.

I’ve been going through a little bit of a depressive episode where I’ve lost my joy in yarn and crocheting… I really wanna try some of these yarns now which makes me really happy. So thanks for putting these videos out 🥰

As a yarn snob with very little $$$ to buy certain yarn, I LOVE this series! Can’t wait to try the artificial mo for a light shawl…

Toni as always I love your videos. I especially loved this format with the Instagram questions, you should definitely keep that it’s nice to hear other people’s concern thrown in to your already incredible yarn reviews.

Your yarn reviews are exactly what I want to know. I've used many of the yarns you recommended and I was not disappointed. I appreciate you taking the time and saving me from making yarn shopping mistakes. Thank you for being my yarn consultant 😊

* * * From this first video of yours that I've seen, you are NOT a yarn snob, you are a intelligent fiber artist with a deep knowledge of all aspects or your craft. You are personable and can express your opinions and the reasons for them clearly and well. I have subscribed based on this one video which I have never done before, and am looking forward to diving into the playlists. * * * Also, I LOVE the way you class the yarns correctly by saying "Category 4, worsted weight" yarn instead of a definitive and misleading "Size 4, medium" as other poorly educated, less savvy KZreadrs do. It just came to me to comment on some of the other crochet channels, "Please visit TL Yarn Crafts and educate yourself." (But that would be bitchy and I never would!) 😇

Hi, I’m new to crochet and just found your channel. I am going through your videos and learning so much. OMG you know so much your videos are so detailed and full of information. Your wonderful to watch love your reviews, thank you xx

I am actually a very long time knitter and a big yarn snob. Would never buy non-animal yarns but I just was blessed with a brand new grandson. As I am older I have decided to start to crochet again and have found your channel so refreshing. Love your reviews. I am going to return that cake yarn that you really gave a thumbs done and I am sure you are right. I have to go and check out some of your beginner stitches and Tunisian videos. Thank you so much

Double checked the Landscapes Breeze - it's got 20% wool, not cotton. I'm trying to find non-wool colorful options for my daughter. Off to look for another yarn. Love how you review yarns- from softness, colour range, workability, price etc. Many thanks!

Toni, it's always good learning about the different yarns. It definitely helps me in choosing yarn for projects. You're the best. Thank you!🥰

I’m late commenting, but regarding the smell of the yarn that had silk in it…silk itself has a very distinct smell. I haven’t smelled the yarn in question, but whenever I am shopping for clothes, I can recognize silk by the smell.

I think I'm ready to get back in to it. I was mesmerized watching you crochet forwards and backwards. I've never seen that before.
