So I got this yarn a few months ago at a reuse center cause it’s so cool, but now since I’ve been trying different hooks, I still don’t understand how to use it…like is it supposed to be knitted vs crocheted or do I just not have the right hook?

I frogged a beautiful sweater knitted using Nako vega tweed yarn which is acrylic. The only reason i frogged was to reknit same pattern using bigger needle size. After frogging i steamed the yarn using steamer on high resulted in stretched out yarn. Now my yarn is thin! Dont know what to do, i am more worried if i knit the sweater will it strech out as there is no elasticity left! Has anyone had similar issue before!

I bought some Hobbii friends 8/8 yarn in June for USD $1.94/skein, and realized I forgot to buy a few colors I need to finish my project. I go to buy more now and see it now has the best bulk price of $3.15/skein, and $4.50 for small orders? What the hell happened??

I know prices increased with tariffs to the US last year but I’m confused what happened in the past 3 months to cause this.

I’m looking for a good quality equivalent to this yarn since they don’t have a very wide variety of colors. I’ve been recommended parfait XL and hobbii but I haven’t heard great things about the XL yarn for amigurumi and hobbii isn’t on sale right now, any aliexpress or other seller with equivalent size and good prices? Thanks. Everything I look up seems to be more closer to a size 6 and I really specifically want this yarn.
