JubileeYarn Chunky Melody Yarn - Bulky Wool Blend - 100g/Skein - Black - 2 Skeins

This is the perfect weight and fiber for warm winter hats and mittens. The color is bright, it is not itchy, and it knits easily. This hat is actually two joined together, so it will be warm and windproof in sub-zero weather.

I used this for my daughters box braids..the 2 packs covered alittle more than half her head, down to rib cage length for reference. Also very fluffy on the thicker side. Colors are worth the purchase for sure!

I've been using this yarn now for a little over a month, and I really like it. The yarn is soft and everyone raves about the color and how beautifully it knits. The size is a little off, definitely not bulky yarn but still worth it. The wool to acrylic ratio makes a huge difference from other yarns I've bought. Point is, if you are looking for cute colors, give this yarn a shot

Here's the TL;DR version: this yarn turns out to be the same as Yarn Bee Melody Bulky, which was formerly sold at Hobby Lobby but discontinued. Three years later, I bought two skeins and it was exactly the same color. One skein had no knots; one had two. The yarn frogs well and knits clearly and isn't splitty.Now for the story. I was contacted in April 2017 by a woman whose daughter had died in 2014 with a project still on the needles, a hat, and asked to finish the hat. I was assured there was a pattern. I agreed to do this. Ready?1) I couldn’t figure out the hat because it was knit flat and had things on stitch holders.2) The pattern was for earflaps, and nothing else.3) Very quickly I realized this wasn’t a hat, but a baby sweater.4) There was six inches of yarn left over.So. Ravelry came to the rescue. We found and identified the yarn. I found that it was discontinued but this product, BambooMN Chunky Melody, was very similar yarn with all different color names but looked just like it. I bought it, and it turns out to be exactly the same yarn.I finished it off, and despite there being a difference of three years and two manufacturers, the yarn was identical. I finished off the sweater, and the mother now has her daughter's final project, completed. (Plus I had a little extra for fingerless gloves.)

I was busily knitting a pair of socks, when I noticed how small the second ball of yarn had become. I knew I didn't have enough to finish the socks and so I went back to the store where I had purchased the yarn, only to find out that it had been discontinued!!!!! The yarn was a variegated collection of bright oranges and purples so there was no way of working in another color, plus I already had one sock completely done. Panicking, I went to Amazon.com, remembering that they have many different items for sale. I typed in what I was looking for and lo and behold......there was the very yarn that I needed, staring at me from the computer monitor. I was beyond excited and so very relieved. I quickly ordered the yarn and was amazed that it was shipped to me so expeditiously! The socks were finished and I'm happy to announce that there was no mark where I tied in the new yarn:) They have since sold to a customer of mine and the person absolutely loves them. So, thanks to Amazon.com, all's well that ends well!Thank-you Amazon.com and to the person who was selling this particular yarn!Sincerely,Kathy Szente

Yarn is nice and makes a gorgeous, warm throw but has issues w knots and tie offs. Not itchy at all for being wool blend.

Love this yarn. Worth the price. Not itchy even though it's 30% wool. I have bought it numerous times.
