Caron Jumbo Yarn Review

Yarnspirations is always coming out with fabulous yarn lines, especially from Caron. Yarnspirations is the one-stop shop for all your knitting and crochet needs; it's affordable, durable and reliable, so you know you're getting a good deal. With Caron's Jumbo yarn line you're getting it all.


Jumbo is exactly as it sounds; it comes in a skein of 340 grams or 659 yards which is great for those one-skein crochet patterns. Jumbo is a worsted weight yarn with a variegated shade range that comes in an economical big ball skein. Because it's 100% acrylic you can easily machine wash and dry your projects.


With a soft yarn like this you can make anything from crochet afghans to hats and scarves and even some baby items if you want. The soft texture feels great against your skin and doesn't cause any irritation. You'll really enjoy the color choices, too. Included in the options are rosewood, chocolate variegated, peacock variegated, perennial variegated, dalmation, Easter basket, baby rainbow and forget me not variegated, which is perfect for the spring season.


Because Jumbo is such a large skein of yarn it makes it easy to work up a project since there aren't as many joining strings to deal with. And of course with each skein comes a pattern on the back of the label in case you need some inspiration. Have just a single skein of Jumbo? That’s just enough to make a baby afghan!
