![]() ![]() ![]() On the normal price ($58.41), it really would depend on your preference. On the Lion Brand site this yarn is $5.99 each and you get 219 yards (200 meters). I could easily see making bags, hats, shawls, or cardies with this yarn, but definitely with a open work vibe to it since it tends to squish down. The Rewind yarn is ridiculously soft, and machine washable on cold, but not machine dryable (lay flat to dry). ![]() ![]() It’s made of 70% polyester and 30% viscose and, as the name implies, is shaped like a strip of tape. I actually love the colorway, Valerian, I would have most definitely picked this color for myself. This is the one I’m most excited about! I’ve wanted to try the Rewind yarn for a while now. Just kidding, I really like the mystery box tape, I think that’s a nice on brand touch. I think it was packaged in Halloween town. The second picture shows the wonky damaged box a bit better. This yarn mystery box took 4 days to get here, that’s not bad as far as standard shipping goes. It’s also a bit more damaged than I imagined, but that’s FedEx for you, I hope the yarn is okay. Oh, I’m nervous, that’s the box! It’s a bit smaller than I imagined. But through the magic of blogging you will find out what happens (and if it’s pink….or what if it’s white.or yellow? ugh too late now!) in the next section. For 9 skeins of weight 5 yarn? Heck yeah! Now, because I just bought it I’m going to have to wait to see what happens…. However, because I found it in the clearance section of the Lion Brand site, just couldn’t resist! (I’m a sucker for a sale what can I tell you.) The price is currently $24.99 for the CYC 5 box, but wait, it gets better, I had a 35% off coupon!Īfter standard shipping ($6.50 ouch!) the total was $22.27. *If you like pink that’s fine, but I’m a Black, Grey, Purple, Teal, or Blue kind of gal. I’m not gonna lie, I don’t know if I’d want to spend the normal price on yarn, when I would have no clue what color it was or if I would like it. When I first saw the mystery yarn box, I knew I had to get it since it’s an introductory item! Lion Brand is having a 40% off introductory sale right now, so it really is the best time to grab it. Just based on the name can you guess which one I picked? That’s right, the Magical Mystery Box CYC 5. The numbers equal the yarn weight, or in the loop yarns case, a yarn type. The box has 4 options, My Secret Admirer: Loop Yarns, Mystery Box CYC 6, Magical Mystery Box CYC 5, and Shh It’s A Secret CYC 4. Included yarns are hypoallergenic so everyone can enjoy! The mystery box I got… Each Mystery Box is filled with 7 skeins (you will receive an assortment of 3 different yarns). We love a good mystery! Especially one that includes yarns. Update: Lion Brand has changed their description! Update: There are 2 mystery boxs available right now! One that’s weight 4 & 5, and one thats weight 5 & 6 both are $19.99 USD. Update: The mystery boxes on Lion Brand are no longer available, there’s not even a listing for it anymore it literally went *poof* if I see them again I’ll update this post again Purchasing more than one of the same box may result in duplicate yarns. Choose from an Off The Hook option or your favorite CYC weight and get a box stuffed with 9 skeins! *Please note yarn will be selected at random. Who doesn’t love a good mystery?! Especially one that includes yarns you love. I just purchased it as I’m writing this now, So the only thing I know about it is what’s on the description and the yarn weight, which is: So when I saw the lion brand mystery yarn box I was pretty excited! Yarn and mystery, all I need is a cup of tea and I’m set! If you’ve ever seen my book reviews you know I like a good mystery. ![]()
