Red Heart may not be the softest yarn but it wears like cast iron. I still have slippers that my grandma knitted 50+ years ago.

Omg. I have not been a fan of Red Heart. It irritates my skin when I work with it. So many have talked about softening up. Well I tried it ….. wow. So soft.

[jeanmajors]

Been softening yarn this way for years. It really works.

I love Red Heart. Thanks for the tips on making it soft! I have used the ombre and it is beautiful. Thank you for sharing that you have autism. My son has autism too. 😁

i've only ever seen red heart ombre at joann's until now, i hadn't realized that there were more color options! this was a dangerous thing to learn when i already wanted so many of the colors

Thanks for the tip. I do find the Ombre's to be softer than the others. My favorite color of the Red Heart Ombre (I also pronounce it ombray), is Jazzi - the bright pink one.

Thank u for sharing. I use red heart constantly

I have been missing you. Looked up this tutorial to soften a red heart blanket.

[LeoandTaurusCreations]

I made a virus blanket using the redish color. Its turned out gorgeous! My favorite outcome! ❤

Hi Kassi! When I get bored watching stuff on telly I switch to your channel and play catchup.

I love Redheart! I'll be 68 years old in June of course I've been using Redheart since I was 7 years old.

No brand I've found has as varied amount of colors and styles.

I keep a stash of Redheart because I can always find a color that works for my projects.

I knew Redheart softened in the wash, but I never tried putting fabric softener in with the was.

Thanks so much for this great tip Kassi!

I'm working on a red heart super saver blanket right now, I'll definitely try this when it's finished!

Thanks for the tip. I never use fabric softener on anything but I will try this on the things I make my grandkids.I have only used Red Heart Super Saver.

[anthonyborack]

Great information, thank you. I have a question. Can you put a whole skein of Red Heart yarn in the washer with the softener so the yarn is soft when you crochet with it? I didn't know if this is feasible or not. Thank you.

[CharlieOkeson]

Thanks for this, Kassi. I love the look of Red Heart Ombre (I pronounce it ombray 😊), but I'm avoiding using it because of a Christmas Red Heart that I bought last year; it was so rough and scratchy that I can't even touch it, and can't imagine snuggling up in a blanket of it. My skin isn't sensitive, but I have OCD, so my feelings get hurt, if you can understand that. "Ooh, I don't like that, I'm never touching it again. Ever" ☺️

I live in an apartment building and I use dryer sheets all the time. Have never noticed any kind of buildup in my dryer. I use dryer sheets, so I don’t have the lug a big heavy bottle of softener into the laundry room. I also use tide pods. I get the kind that has all kind of stuff in it and I’m sure that helps.I wash all my knitted and crocheted out and tied, and dry them with dryer sheets. Everything turns out soft and squishy, just the way you wanted to.

[jessicaann]

I never thought to use fabric love red heart its durable my great grandma used it i learned with it but i do notice alot of crocheters dont like it and i frel like i get judgment for using red heart any soften my crochet items i use conditioner, i hand wash my items in the bath tub lukewarm water put a good amount of conditioner on it and soak for at least an hour then wash on delicate in washing machine and lay out to dry
