Bernat® Blanket Ombre™ #6 Super Bulky Polyester Yarn, Ocean Teal Ombre 10.5oz/300g, 220 Yards

I knit prayer shawls for our churches Mission Outreach and this is the only yarn (brand, texture and weight) I'll use. We have been told by many recipients that it gives comfort and a healing peace to endure whatever they are going through or what may come.

This yarn is a delight to crochet and the blanket that resulted is a favourite of all the humans in our family...but also our little dogs, who adore it for naps. A bonus is that the yarn is quite strong, so strong in fact that in a pinch I used some leftover lengths of it to secure the cover to our woodpile during 90km/hour winds...and it did not break. True story!
