Firecracker Recycled Resolution Silk Yarn

Shiny and colourful silk yarn

This yarn looks like candy, the way the colors are spun together. Love it!

I love the shine and richness of the colors. I a nice weight. Maybe a little thicker than worsted. Smooth silky feel. The two below shipped together, as you can see totally different colors.

This yarn is so soft and the colors are vibrant. I can't wait to knit this up.

I love this yarn so much! Its silky in the most perfect sense of the word. Its thicker than Spice Market but I find it to be overall smooth and soft and gorgeously shiny! Photo is a heart pillow I was working on when I wrote this review. Fabulous.

Great colors!!! I love this yarn and I was able to make a cute little handbag. The yarn can tend to snag a bit and fray. Besides that I am totally happy with the yarn quality.

Fell in love instantly with this yarn!

Love the colors ! Haven't used it yet winter project.

I just received my skein of this yarn, so I can only review the look and feel at this point. I got the non-metallic and it is so beautiful! I will be using it as an accent with some other silk yarn from DGY. I think it would also make some wonderful tassels.

I purchased the metallic and non metallic varieties and they work up so nicely. Thank you for awesome, high quality yarns!

This yarn is handmade, and can be a bit hard to work with because it is handmade. It is a lot thicker, thinner, loose, tight, etc in some places than others, and there are some colors where it's pretty clear the silk scraps used were more frazzled than the others.It knits up just fine if you're careful, but it's thicker than worsted weight usually is, and needs more careful handling than commercially spun yarn. I've made yarn myself with a drop spindle, so I wasn't expecting tightly, evenly twisted yarn. But I was expecting something slightly more regular than what I got. I also needed more than I expected for the scarf I made, so order an extra skein if you have something specific in mind, or you might run out.

love it just wasn't enough , so i bought some more

First, let me say that I love the colors in this yarn! I was so excited to try it out. The colors are just so eye-catching and bright, and I love the silky feel of this yarn.That being said, I found this particular yarn to be a bit difficult to work with. Silk has a tendency to be very slippery (I had to get those needle stopper plugs for my dps because my stitches kept falling off the ends) and because of the nature of silk as a fabric, it unravels constantly. It was hard to make sure I was catching all the little threads for each stitch, making knitting (for me) a slow process.Because of the way this yarn is twisted (plied), you have to be careful which direction the yarn twists when you knit. After starting my little handbag project with this yarn, I had to frog it and re-wind my ball the opposite direction. The first time I started the bag, the yarn was constantly untwisting itself as I was knitting it, which lead to a lot of fraying and the yarn threatening to pull itself apart. After winding my ball the other direction, I still had to stop after every row to untwist it (it winds itself tighter after every stitch), but at least it wasn't untwisting to the point where my yarn was falling apart.I'm not sure I will purchase this yarn again, but it did end up looking nice as a cute clutch-sized handbag.

Will be purchasing more shortly Love the yarn Prompt service Thanks

this yarn is truly colorful...and quite bulky as well...it's very soft and not too 'fuzzy', yet I had to return it because it was too 'bulky' for what I wanted to knit.....I'd say one could knit these easily with a size 10-13 knitting needles...would make a great winter scarf...

Amazing yarn, love it. I'll use it for felting,

I just love the vivid colours. Im mad at myself because I made a mistake when asking for the colour. I actually wrote I wanted two of the three to be dark blues and I meant all three . How in the world did I do that? Oh well Ill just have to order more..lol I will be ordering more from Darn Good Yarns in the future for sure.

I'll admit, when my yarn came I was a little surprised at what I received because of a surprising color scheme but I can't say I'm disappointed. The color was gorgeous and the texture was the quality I expect and get from every product I at darn good yarn! I am no doubt pleased with it and would buy it again in a heartbeat!

I love this yarn! The colors are absolutely VIBRANT!! and this is so easy to work with ! I love to make ponchos and that is what I did with this yarn. it came out so pretty and worked up fast and I have had many compliments on it. I don't like to wear coats and sweaters so I have many ponchos that I wear on a regular basis. This is one that I will wear over and over!! It is SO fun !!

I have never worked with silk yarn before and I love the Firecracker Recycled Resolution Silk Yarn is beautiful! I love all of the bright colors and the quality of the yarn! I can't wait to work with and I can't wait to order from DGY in the future!

There isn't much of it. Being new to crocheting I was unaware of how much to expect in one skein. Perhaps it says somewhere on the website and I just overlooked it. However, on the bright side, the colors are vivid and I have enjoyed working with it.

Very nice feeling, soft to touch, silky! :)

The colors are so clear and vibrant. It feels wonderful. I haven't used it - I'm gathering yarns for a project - but I want to start now!

Fun, fun yarn! Love the vivid colors!

It's so very bright and so very lovely. It takes a bit of patience to knit with it, but I'm learning its idiosyncrasies...I don't really know what to make out of it, but I'll probably knit a hat or tank. I'll check the FB page or the website again for a pattern.

Got my yarn today ! Looks great !

I am using it for embellishment on a craft project and it's perfect.

This yarn is beautiful!!! Can't wait to see what can be made out if it. I will be ordering more of this soon, but want to try the one without the metallic threads next time. Love this yarn~

Very nice silk yarn and great vibrant colors.

I used 7 six-foot strands + 1 string strand with brass beads on my kumiloom to braid an elegant necklace? tie? that can be tied at the neck or lower. Looks super on a black or ivory turtleneck. I think I have enough to make 2 or 3 more! THANKS!!

I love my Firecracker Recycled Resolution Silk Yarn. Its very beautiful. I just don't know what to do with it. So many possibilities, that I probably need 100 more, but my pocket book won't let me. :D Can't wait to finally get something decided on so I can finish it then post a picture.
