It's soft, beautiful to work with and to look at, comes in huge balls - what more could you want? I've been wanting to try this yarn forever and finally found a blanket project to do it with, so glad I did! I cannot recommend it highly enough.
I really like this yarn. Overall, it is easy to use, feels nice, works up quickly and the colours are wonderful. My orders arrived really quickly. I will be making more purchases in the future.
Some things I think worth mentioning that I wish I knew before buying:
1. Some of the colours I ordered are not accurately represented online - mid cake appears much lighter online and sticky date appears more red in the images. Thankfully I still enjoyed the colours of the physical cakes. The other 4 colours I ordered were more accurate in their images.
2. Weave in your ends as you work! I usually weave in my end at the end of my project, however the ends split quickly as I was working with my project. Weaving in as you go is a must with this yarn.
3. There were a lot of factory knots in one of the cakes that I purchased - although I haven’t finished using the cake, this is frustrating considering the price.
This is really soft good yarn, colours I purchased were the same as shown online. This will be my to go shop from now on.
I started a beaded blanket with pony beads using bamboo viscose from spotlight as Aran & Eve (at the time) had yet to be restocked ofter it was remanufactured. The bamboo viscose was uwful, the strands kept coming appart and started pilling before i had even finished the blanket. I was ready to give up at row 46/200 because at this spent had already spent 40+ hours on the project.
I decided to bite the bullet and buy 2 balls of the A&E and stwrt from scratch 😅 and OMG I'm soooooo glad i did.
The new blanket looks so beautiful and even. Its also a higher worsted weight so its much more plush. I am also having faaaaar less issues with the yarn splitting. I will note there is still some splitting, but i assume this is because I'm having to use a 3mm hook to fit through the pony beads. On the row where i can switch back to using a 5mm hook (recommend) there's much less issues. You guys said I wouldn't regret it and I don't 🧡
Highly recommend this yarn, will purchase again and I'll also be back for another 4 balls to finish my blanket 😂
A totally unbiased review of Aran & Eve by Source of Fibre
"On Wednesdays, we crochet with Aran & Eve." 💅
It’s luxurious AF. Like, 'you can't knit with us' unless you bring snacks and good lighting.
Every stitch feels like it’s about to spill tea and then bless your project. You could literally make a potato cozy and it would still look couture.
"This yarn is so good, I told my therapist about it."
Pilling? She doesn't even go here.
It stays smoother than Karen's brain during calculus. I tried to rub it between my hands like an over-caffeinated raccoon and it just sat there unbothered. Icon behavior.
"Stop trying to make fuzz happen. It’s not going to happen."
And the colour palette? She’s not a regular yarn. She’s a cool yarn.
It’s giving "I just renovated my life in muted terracottas and cashmere creams." Every skein is like a perfectly curated fall outfit with boots, a PSL, and unearned confidence.
This yarn didn’t just upgrade my croheting—it upgraded me. I now only respond to compliments. My WIPs are thriving. My enemies? Jealous. My projects? Burn Book-worthy (in a good way).
