Author: Crocheting is a very rewarding hobby enjoyed by many. Making wonderful afghans and throws by hand is a lot of fun and the finished products make perfect gifts for people of all ages. A nice thick chunky yarn made from 100% acrylic is the yarn that experienced crocheters use for making top quality afghans that are soft, warm, long-lasting and machine washable.
One of the best brands of yarn for crocheting that money can buy is lionbrand yarn. This American yarn manufacturer offers a very wide selection of top quality yarns that include six weight classes. Category 1 yarn is very fine, making it the perfect yarn for baby wear and socks. The Category 2 and 3 yarns are also fine in nature and they are used for making light-weight garments and adult wear. Category 4 lionbrand yarns are the most popular weight for both knitting and crocheting while the last two yarns in this lineup are used for making warm, thick sweaters, hats and scarves.
