Has anyone worked with Textures yarn from Lion Brand?

 

Talk about being purposeful as you use this yarn. I am making two afghans
for customers. One is with Homespun from Lion Brand. You know if you used
this yarn the stitches fall off your needles perfectly smoothly. But with
Textures you have to make it your business to be purposeful pulling up the
yarn to the height of your needle. But wow, what a glorious yarn with all
its magical colors blending and fading from one to another. 

 

Homespun goes faster, but the blending of color is great with Textures.
