Credit to Lion, they're one of the few big box brands that really make an effort to do something different. I really enjoy the variety in their range!

OMG STAAAAHHHHP making me buy things, lol! 😂 If you don't already get sponsorships, somebody at Lion Brand better sit up and take notice.

Wow. Love that you sound like you're talking with me, a good friend, though we've never actually met. Easy. Clear. No hard sell. Up beat. Helpful. Makes me believe I could do it and I NEED most of this yarn!

[gingerfoxx]

I love how detailed and well thought out your yarn critiques are. A nice balance if personal preference and technical analysis. Regardless if our opinions jive or differ, I enjoy the amount of effort and thought they are given. Keep up the great work.

Ok, I just gotta say, I found you when I first started crocheting a couple months ago, and I 100% trust your taste in yarn. You've never steered me wrong, and by god, I love tunisian crochet better than regular. I just wish I could order some now, but I'm moving, and don't know when! lol.

Can I just tell you how much I appreciate these reviews? I live in a rural area and the nearest Joann is 3 hours away. That means I can only get things online so I can’t check anything out before I buy it. These reviews are helpful, thank you so much!!

The Mandla Watercolor is my favorite yarn. I been having my eye on the pink one.

[superdupe]

I literally paused the video to go pick up comfy cotton-fetti

[gymcraftlaundry]

I honestly never imagined I would become addicted to watching yarn reviews and I’ve been crocheting for over 30 years lol.

[LizzLizz]

As a brand new crocheter. I would love to see a video from you where you dive in to what the different levels of yarn mean, what they are best used for making, etc. Also the different materials yarn is made from. Is more acrylic better for some projects than others? I know I can google this, but you are so good at describing things. I feel like I would get more from you, than reading.

Toni, those deep jewel tones for the Date Night are on Lion Brand’s web site. I love your reviews. Keep em’ coming!

[ghostmochi]

That Mandala water colors is the yarn of my DREAMS! WHERE HAS IT BEEN ALL MY LIFE!?!?!

[Julescelt]

"Incredibly bouncy, making it more fun to squish"! Is my new way to evaluate yarn!

[janet]

what a fantastic teacher you are! I loved the foundation crochet tip. I've never used it before, but now I'm in love! Thanks so much -

[MGK-jelf]

I’m so happy you tube recommended this video. Your review style is fantastic. Loved watching and listening! Subscribed! Thank you!

[dpreeper]

I tend to watch YouTube pretty much all day as I carry on with everything else I do. It's the background noise of my life. I'm really about half-watching... or less. But I was completely absorbed in your reviews and completely stopped being productive. So, I had to take some time to tell you how fantastic and complete your reviews were. You showed and told me pretty much everything I needed/wanted to know about these yarns and you were completely engaging. Thanks for some real quality edu-tainment!

[kayenicholson]

I love the yarn spinner. Do you ever talk about it, stitches, and needles?

[knittedbywhitney]

Hey Tony, I would love to see a review of the most popular yarns from Knit Picks! I'm thinking Wool of the Andes, Palette, City Tweed (one of my ultimate fave yarns!), Stroll (another deliciously soft yarn), Dishie cotton, Hawthorne, etc. They also have some cool specialty yarns like Lindy Chain, Fable Fur, Wonderfluff, and Shine (cotton and modal).

[AntisocialAuntie]

I just found your channel a week ago and now am going through your older videos. Thank you for doing these! I'm a knitter trying to figure out crochet and your info on some yarns don't work with your hook has helped give me hope instead of frustration! Lots of love!

[MarquitasKnottyCrush]

I love love that you demo the work up on hooks💕 which is sooo important. Also, you recommend a hook choice with the yarn. You're the Best! We Love you Toni!
