I know this yarn as I have used it many times for baby items. it made a lovely baby blanket for a baby boy

Think your skeins have less yarn and cost more. I need another skein to finish the afghans that I have been making for many years.
Carolyn C.
Love the yarn, easy to work with.

A friend gave some of this yarn to me. I am knitting a twin bed size afghan for donation using double strands. I needed more yarn to complete the afghan. Your quick delivery was much appreciated. Other stores didn't have the colors I needed. This will be donated to a refugee relocated to this country. I even ordered some more to complete the afghan. Thank you for this great product with great service!!

My local shop kept letting me down, "we're expecting a shipment any day now" for months. I needed a whole new red in addition to a few more of the red I was using and a few more Navy. I had begun with Encore, and didn't want to mix yarns.

I am an avid knitter and enjoy knitting with beautiful yarn. When I'm unable to find what I'm looking for at my local yarn shop(s) I have a few out of state shops that I turn to. Michigan Fine Yarns has become a favorite yarn shop of mine outside of Connecticut. Great service, helpful staff and beautiful yarn at MFY has me becoming a regular customer.

This is your for my second flag, and I ordered the wrong white but as soon as I figured that out, you shipped four more things of white for me and I’m gonna start it pretty soon the first Flag Afghan that I made I bought The yarn there too. I donated it to the American Legion in Brooklyn Michigan for their cash bash. It was a silent auction and it brought in $600. I was so proud and so happy to help the Legion out my heart belong to our country and to The American legion 315 in Brooklyn, Michigan
Joan H.
Only yarn I use for making afghans.
Kathleen M.
easy to work with and very vibrant colors - would order again

I received my order promptly and was pleased with everything. I have used Michigan Yarn to make four baby blankets and like the yarn's quality and feel. I intend to order again in the near future. The product I used was washable wool in white.
Thank you Michigan Yarn,
Suzanne
Beautiful yarn. Works up nicely
Claire R.
This is a great yarn to knit with with sturdy plies, yet it is so manageable and soft. I love the wide selection of rich colors, and the price can’t be beat.

It's a pleasure buying yarn from Michigan Fine Yarns. I order by mail and have spoken with the owner. She is such a pleasure to work with. I used this beautiful yarn to make a double-stranded Afghan. The pattern is called "Shadowed Triangles Afghan" by JoAnne Turcotte from a pattern book called "DONE BY MONDAY AFGHANS" - trademark Plymouth Yarn Design Studio. I just love working with this yarn.
Tika S.
I bought some yarn from another company and I missed judged and didn’t get enough. After searching for quite awhile, I finally found you. Thank goodness u had the color and plenty of it. The order came fast and the price was the same as the other place. I’m not sure it’s exactly the he same dye lot but it’s awfully close so I should be ok.
What a relief u were there and had the yarn! I’ll be back for my next project. Thank you!
Carol A.
This is a nice economical yarn for projects that need to be easy care.

I would always rather visit the shop in person- it is beautiful, with tons of yarn and great staff- but when in a pinch, I can count on them to help me find the right thing virtually!

The pattern is Michele Wyman's "Block Party Baby Blanket." It has become the "family" baby blanket: I am knitting it for the 7th time, each time with some variation. I am currently knitting the 8th version for the brother-to-be of the baby shown on the blanket.
I always use Plymouth DK weight Encore. It knits nicely, is machine washable, and is very durable. The 19-year-olds still have theirs on their beds or sofas!!
Debbie T.
The yarn is nice and soft, and works up easily. I really like it!

My daughter needed a skein of this discontinued yarn for a project she had started a couple of months ago. Two sources didn't have it (thought it was listed on the website of one of the sources) You had it in stock and rapidly sent it so that I could give it to her for Christmas.
Thank you! Thank you!

I love crocheting with Plymouth Encore! Great stitch definition and the yarn slides effortlessly from the hook. And my blanket made with this yarn is very soft and warm.

The husband of my friend unexpectedly died and his family all want an orange hand knit hat like the one his sister made him years ago for hunting. I love to knit. I’m glad you had the orange I needed.

Yarn was great. I should have ordered chunky instead of worsted. Then,my house got flooded from hurricane Ian. I'll order more when I can. Thanks
