What are my favorites?
SO glad you asked!
PALETTE: Starting at $2
This fingering weight yarn is 100% wool, superfine, spun with 2 strands and comes in over 160 colors!
It is 100% wool, and a rather rustic one at that, so I don’t recommend using it for next-to-skin wearables.
I love the rustic stray fibers, so perfect for my Rustic Crochet Nativity.
I am also using Palete for this year’s Christmas CAL!
Other Patterns using Palette:
Mini Nativity Ornament
Resurrection Scene
DISHIE: Starting at $2
This is my favorite 100% cotton yarn. Think Lily Sugar n’Creme but slightly finer, sleeker, easier on the fingers, and less lint wafting as you work. It’s a true worsted. I have found that cotton yarn found in big box stores is more of a bulky #5 weight and a bit hard on my fingers. For the past several years I use only Dishie for my cotton projects.
Whistle and Ivy Patterns that use Dishie:
Cactus Coasters
Pocket Planter
Baja Crossbody Bag
Boho Ornaments
Rustic Carrots and Eggs
Tropical Leaves
BRAVA: Starting at $2
Approachable, easy-care acrylic. This was my go-to for my plaid designs for years, but they changed scarlet to a pink-ish red, so I had to switch.
Brava is a lovely yarn for so many projects, especially next-to-skin easy-care projects.
PROJECT IDEAS:

Serape Stripe Hat
Puppy Love Arm Warmers (And scarf!)
Perfect and Easy Bows
Sea Turtle Stuffy
VIRAL Baby Flip Flops
Baby Trapper Hat
Mini Stocking Advent Calendar
SHINE WORSTED: Starting at $2
Shine worsted is another lovely cotton, however, it’s a blend with bamboo. This gives it more of a sheen, and makes it easier on the fingers than a 100% cotton yarn. The balls are a bit smaller though, containing 75 yards.
PROJECT IDEAS:
Donut Coasters
Faux Macrame Rainbows
Snowfall Knit Stich Pencil Pouch
Rica Colorful Clutch
Fillable Easter Eggs
Cactus Ornaments
COMFY WORSTED: Starting at $2
Comfy worsted is a lovely cotton/acrylic blend. I do tend to use Comfy and Shine interchangeably. They work really well together and even look a bit similar, except Shine has a more shiny sheen. Shine glides easier through the fingers. Comfy feels more like a 100% cotton but slightly softer. Due it including acrylic, it can be washed without shrinking.
Protect Ideas:
Baby Gladiator Barefoot Sandals
Coin Pouch/Airpod Case Cover
Easy Key Fob
Crochet Succulents
Cactus Pin Cushion
One more I wanted to mention was Fairy Tale Fur, which I use to crochet fur pom poms! It comes in a few fun colors!
I hope this helps, happy shopping and happy crocheting!
