Journey Recycled Silk Yarn is a a very nice yarn

Journey Recycled Silk Yarn is a soft sport weight silk yarn that comes in a variety of colors and a reasonable price. I recently found instructions for a thermal single crochet stitch and thought it would make a nice pair of fingerless mitts for my arthritic thumbs. The Journey Indian Peacock silk yarn was easy to work with and the stitch made a thick fabric. I liked it so much that I made a pair in Journey Fireworks, Journey Poppy, and even in Darn Good Yarn’s Twist Sport Weight Silk Yarn in Dragon Tail!

Hi there! 😊 Thank you so much for your wonderful review of our Journey Recycled Silk Yarn! 🙌 We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed working with our soft and versatile yarn, and that it was perfect for your project. We love the colors you chose - the Indian Peacock, Fireworks, and Poppy all sound beautiful! 😍 And we're glad you were able to find other silk yarn options from Darn Good Yarn as well. Happy crafting! ✨ -Claudia

Beautiful

Looks and feels great, awesome color now I get a sort out what to make with it, a top for sure to wear with my Darn Good Yarn skirts.

You're the highlight of our day

Beautiful stitch definition and pooling

As usual, the DGY recycled yarn is a dream to work with. I wasn't sure about this colorway (unbe-leaf-able), so I decided to experiment with it. This poncho pattern uses three different stitches, and I thought it would be fun to seein one garmenthow the variegated yarn pools and shifts with different stitches.

thank you>w

Gorgeous Color Pooling on Short Short-Row Patterns

I absolutely loved using this variegated yarn to make my scarf/shawlette, using the Pincha Shawl pattern by Pinpilan Wangsai US4 3.5mm needles and 1.48 skeins to create a 17 feathered mini shawl! I love how the colors work in a design like this and it's the perfect thickness for a bit of lightweight warmth or as a simple accessory (plus it looks great with the stick pin from my Darn Good Yarn Round Shawl Pin).Unfortunately, I learned that my Charlie's Laundry Soap really likes to discharge the green dye from silk, but a little vinegar stopped the discharge and I still love the muted version!

Journey Recycled Silk Yarn is a a very nice yarn

Works up beautifully

This was wonderful to work with Ive ordered more to make a scarf for a friend.

Awww sooo cute!!:purple_heart: - Claudia

I can't get over the

I can't get over the beauty of this yarn. I have ordered more!!

This is looking great!:heartpulse:-Claudia

So silky, and the yarn doesn't bleed on my fingers

Unlike my first time crocheting with the Phoenix Rising yarn, I think I prefer Journey Recycled Silk in Autumn jubilee because it doesn't rub off on my fingers that much, and it's very soft, shiny, and in the right color palette for my pink Hazbin Hotel cosplay as Charlie (see project photos)! And I love that it's silky and doesn't chafe either. So pretty, I ordered more from September's yarn of the month and I love it!

Beautiful yarn!

I love the colors of this yarn! It's bright and beautiful and reminds me of sunshine. It's fairly stretchy, which is nice. My only disappointment is that I thought it would be softer since it is made of silk. While working with it, it's kind of rough, but I think I can soften it up once I finish up my project.

New to me!

This yarn is entirely new to me. Id never worked with sport weight or silk or recycled silk, but I love the Fireworks colorway and wanted to make my first granny hexagon cardigan with it. So I did! (Well, I am.) Its easier to work with than I imagined and is super pretty!

Love This Yar.

Using this fantastic yarn for baskets and jewelry. Nice, nice colors.

So soft

This yarn is so soft. This will be great for a shawl or lap blanket

Soft, bright, and sturdy

I crocheted a lacy shawl with a couple balls of this and it turned out so light and soft! The colors are really vibrant too. Would (and will) definitely buy again!

Darn Good Twist Sport Weight Silk Yarn in Fireworks

I've just started working with this yarn and it is so lush I want to just pet it. I've ordered more because I may want to make the shawl I'm working on bigger than the three skeins I have but who knows, maybe I'll just sit here petting the cakes! It's absolutely lovely. I would like better information on washing and drying it but I can figure that out and write it down I think. It's lovely.

Just perfect I plan to

Just perfect I plan to make a shawl just as soon I get 17 other wips off needles. Lol always enjoy my yarn from here and the journey it takes me on.

Great yarn

Beautiful colors and it is SO soft. Love this yarn and will be ordering more on the future. Can't wait to work this up.

Gorgeous yarn texture and colors.

Gorgeous yarn texture and colors.Just the thing for a lightweight scarf project I had plans for!

Silk Yarn

Love that the yarn is made from recycled silk. The color is bright and the yarn is good quality for a hat or any other project. This skein is an orange/purple mix but the colors work together well.

Love it

I'm making my 5th scarf with this yarn. 4 of them I gave away. I just love the color and plan to keep the scarf I'm working on now.

An Incredible Journey!

Absolutely gorgeous colorway in this Journey recycled silk yarn! It has a very slight sheen, and with these deep, vibrant colors, it sure will make something super cute for my next project!

I love this colorway so

I love this colorway so much! The only problem I had was I ran out and had to buy more! It works up beautifully and make soft fabric.

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback! -Claudia
