Perfection Worsted from Kraemer Yarns – Review & Giveaway!

December 10, 2018 Leave a Comment

Yarn was provided by Kraemer Yarns. 

Perfection Worsted from Kraemer Yarns is a real workhorse of a yarn. It's the ideal pick for knitters and crocheters looking to make colorful projects that won't break the bank! Click through for a full review. 
Sometimes you just need a good, go-to yarn that comes in a million colors, is easy enough to launder that you can gift it to anyone, and isn’t a zillion dollars. That’s where Kraemer Yarns’ Perfection Worsted comes in. It’s one of those yarns that has a good combination of wool and acrylic that gives makers many of the advantages of wool yarn. However, the acrylic adds some softness into the mix while also making the yarn more affordable to buy and easier to wash than something that’s, say, 100% wool. The big thing that separates Perfection Worsted from the pack of other wool/acrylic blends (since there are definitely a few out there) is that it’s made in the United States with American wool. Read on for the nitty gritty about this yarn. :)

The Yarn : Kraemer Yarns’ Perfection Worsted

Colorways pictured: Cobalt & Daisy 
Skein details:
 ~200 yd / 3.5 oz  (100g) skeins  /  30% U.S. Merino Wool  / 70% Acrylic
Knitting needles: US 8, 5 mm / 14 sts & 20 rows over 4 inches (10 cm)
Crochet hook: US I-9, 5.5 mm / 15 sc & 18 rows over 4 inches (10 cm)
Cons: It’s still 70% acrylic, although that very much helps make the yarn more affordable and easier to launder.
Pros: Perfection Worsted is an all-purpose yarn available in over 70 colors. If you are looking for a yarn that’s budget-friendly but still contains real wool, Perfection is a great pick for so many projects!
Pattern Ideas: Since this is a worsted weight acrylic blend yarn, I’d be remiss not to suggest the Intarsia Mountain knitting pattern, which was designed with exactly this sort of yarn in mind! Crocheters could definitely give my Granny Throw Pillows a try with Perfection too.

Peg boards and craft room organization go together Peg boards and craft room organization go together like peanut butter and jelly. So, as you can see, do latch hook tools and screwdriver organizers! 🪛 
.
I think this trick translates to any tool with a thick handle, so leather working tools, punch needles, print making tools, etc. should work! What other tools am I, a needlecrafter, blanking on right now?

Pegboard storage is my favorite for craft supplies Pegboard storage is my favorite for craft supplies, so getting a few hung in my new studio has been a priority. Here’s my first attempt. 🔨 
.
Details: This pegboard panel is for organizing my knitting needles, latch hook tools, sewing thread, etc. It doesn’t need to hold much weight, so I didn’t anchor this into a stud - just used basic drywall anchors. I’ve also got a set of two 2’x4’ panels for another spot in my studio, and those will need a stud/more than 3 drywall anchors. Wish me luck!

June’s big ears can get cold in winter, so I’m improvising a doggie ear warmer/hood for her. What are the odds she tries to shred it immediately when it’s done?
