Beautiful sunshine yellow, not “Banana” as it’s called by the manufacturer. This was listed as a fingering weight. It's not at all. It’s much closer to a heavy lace weight, not even a light-fingering weight. Because of the blend it doesn’t really have much bounce to it, but for supposedly being 6 strands, I expected some depth to it. Just not there. In all fairness, I haven’t knit it up yet, since the project I ordered it for calls for a fingering weight. Also, I ordered 3 skeins, and received 2 different dye lots. When I contacted the seller, she made it perfectly clear it wasn’t her issue, and that it came from the pickers and was packed from desertcart. That if I cared so much about matching dye lots, I should’ve ordered directly from her website. She than went on to tell me many ways to blend the two totally different lots with no idea as to the project it was meant for, and making the assumption I’m a “newbie.” She also made sure I was aware it was past the 30 day return period. *I had to come back in and edit this review based upon the false information provided by the seller. I finally set down to work with this yarn, and realized one very important fact. Whereas she blamed this mishap with the dye lots on the desertcart pickers, this turned out to be completely incorrect. The shipment came directly from her store, so it was either herself or a worker that sent this off containing two different dye lots. She could've tried to work with me on doing an exchange, by splitting shipping charges or something, but apparently absolving herself of any responsibility or part played in this, was more important.** I have ordered a lot of yarn off desertcart that came directly from the warehouse, and not even once, have I ever received mixed dye lots. I’m all for supporting my LYS’s in the area, but since they’ve all closed down within a 25 miles radius, and we are still in the middle of a pandemic, what’s a yarnaholic supposed to do?? It’s quite common amongst crafters to order yarn, fiber, materials, for future crafts, and not get to it as soon as we thought we would. We all know how that never works outs. Lol Or for us to pick something up just to have in “our stash.” So pardon my enthusiasm on wanting to start the new year with a new project, and my hoarding tendencies in my hobbies. Way to make a girl feel proud of her talents, and stash!! But hey, let me at least thank the seller for my education into the cynical side of now ordering from certain vendors on desertcart.

The Salted Caramel looks more reddish-brown/russet on my computer (which may of course not be accurate). There's a list of suggested pairings here: http://www.scheepjes.com/en/yarn/whirl-whirlette-combos-2694/ **Q: what size crochet hook works best with this yarn (Whirl)?** A: I’ve been using a 2.75 mm hook, and it gives a gauge of 6st/in and 3 rows of half-double crochet are about 0.5 in. You could probably go a bit smaller on the hook size, but I wouldn’t want to go any larger than 2.75 mm. **Q: You call it “blueberries”. The picture looks green. I have been looking for that color green. Is the picture wrong?** A: No, it's not green. This is the correct color of "blueberries" https://cdn.webshopapp.com/shops/297089/files/319028623/scheepjes-whirlette-854-blueberry.jpg **Q: Is chewy more gray or brown in coloring?** A: I suggest going to Scheepjes website for a better answer. I haven’t bought this color, so u can’t say. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ LightWeight Got 5 Stars-But Not In A Good Way *by T***R on February 17, 2022* ETA-See below for ** **'s Very true to color.
