Red Heart Boutique Irresistible Yarn

Love this yarn! Thick with minor fuzz from the wool. I've made two throws so far and he yarn worked up beautifully for both!

I have done both a crocheted afghan/throw and a knitted one. It is so much easier to crochet with this yarn than to knit with it. I use a size 70 hook (and knitting needles) on it. The knitting needles tend to split off the edges of the strand while trying to knit it. I had no problems crocheting it. I did about chain 25 and single crochet in each stitch across (24 sts). I used the ombre and the coordinating solid, just tied on the new ball and kept going. The hardest part is trying to weave in the ends. I do wish it was machine wash instead of hand wash as I doubt the afghan/throw will be hand washable due to the size of the piece.
