Eddie Bauer Wool Paca Yarn Review - Untwisted Threads

[@karenmiller1665]

I am just about finished using this yarn for a stripe hype sweater and it has been a pleasure to knit with.

[@UntwistedThreads]

Ooh how beautiful! That is so exciting to hear! :)

[@rachelraye285]

Be sure to grab some Now! It is on clearance at Joann’s

[@UntwistedThreads]

Yes! We love yarn sales!:)

[@cupcakenormajean9974]

I knit with this over the summer and it’s seriously under hyped! Obviously does nothing for anyone who lives anywhere else but for those in the US especially in areas far from a lys it’s awesome this can just be purchased at a chain craft store.

How exciting! We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed it!:)

[@vegangelist]

Right? And the price point!! Try going to any yarn store and getting this many grams of this fiber content for anything less than twice the price. You just can't do it. How has this not been flying off the shelf? Truly.

This is probably one of the last superwash yarns I add to my stash but I love it and got a bunch over the summer. I wish they’d have used a non superwash version of this wool since it says on the label it has to be hand washed regardless, likely due to the alpaca content. So I don’t see an upside to it being superwash, ie the polymer coating is a negative addition overall. However using extra fine merino actually does restrict the wool to being a very low micron count I believe it is 18.6-19.5 microns, which is fantastic and I’d love to feel a non superwash version if Eddie Bauer decides to continue this collaboration in the future!

[@UntwistedThreads]

We absolutely can see what you mean, and agree, its probably the alpaca content that makes it not machine washable. Hopefully more yarns to come from them!:)

I absolutely love these reviews! I’ve already purchased a few yarns and avoided a few others. Thank you for what you do. I would love to hear more reviews of mohairs like Isagar and Onling and maybe something budget like Valley or Knitpicks Aloft. There’s a lot of interest in the suri alternatives like Fyberspates Cumulus (oh my gosh, so soft) and CaMaRose (not as soft to me but always curious what people think as it is soft just not Fyberspates). I love all the reviews on superwash and non-superwash merinos - it’s saved me a lot of time and money.. I’m also always curious which higher end yarns are worth it (Miss Babs, Hedgehog fibers, etc). Anyway, I LOVE these and have gone through all of them now while I knit. THANK YOU!!!

[@UntwistedThreads]

Thank you Jessica! You're too kind! We will absolutely add those to our list! Thank you so much for the recommendations!:)

[@Kate-t2h]

Love your reviews, can’t get into polymer coated washable wool.

[@UntwistedThreads]

Happy you enjoyed it! Maybe another yarn will interest you in the future:)

[@jeanette6396]

Never heard of this one. I've seen the Eddie bauer cotton adventurer and wanted to try it. Definitely would like to squish this one!

[@UntwistedThreads]

We'd love to hear your thoughts if you get to feel/try it out!:)

[@hula691]

I’m wondering if they are not going to stock this yarn anymore. Two weeks ago my nearby store had plenty and now they are almost out of it. I was going to make a shawl with this yarn and kept putting it off because of summer. Haha

[@UntwistedThreads]

We hope that's not the case! There was recently a large yarn sale, so that probably is why :)

[@vegangelist]

They have had a big sale on it, recently. I didn't know about it till then. Grabbed several of the cotton skeins and 6 of the woolpaca.
