I’m glad I waited to buy this yarn because it’s now on sale for $5.99 at Joann’s and I received a gift card for my birthday so although I don’t need any more yarn, I treated myself to the cranberry frost color way and it’s so soft and easy to crochet! And it matches a sleeveless dress I have perfectly so I’m making a cardigan to wear over the dress. ❤

Oh I NEEDED this review because I wanted to use some halo interchangeably with the original OGo yarn that I love working up. But I didn’t know if it was really 5 weight bulky soo thanks for doing the samples!!!!

@ClaireCambridge Жыл бұрын

It looks so much better than the old one! Also I saw someone cake it up and it looks amazing

@mh.1568 Жыл бұрын

I like cake yarns but if this doesn’t tangle I don’t see an issue plus can’t beat the price point even at regular price. Beautiful colors and no other yarn has the true ombré like this. Gorgeous.

Looking forward to trying out this Halo yarn. I like the fact it’s not as fuzzy and the ombré is absolutely beautiful. Huge improvement from old Ogo.

Hey Ginger! I love your setup in doing reviews on yarns! Plus, your yarn wall looks amazing! 🤗 Have to tell you that you’ve really accomplished so much with your channel - congratulations are in order! I remember your very first video… 🥰 Take care sweets. Just know I’m still around - watching all your vids!

I used the Old O'Go to make a narrow and long scarf for my daughter. The yarn felt "cheap" to me.

@ygmacrocheter5859 Жыл бұрын

I like it, now its only 3.00 in Michaels clearance so i have all the colors. I made things with it. I don't see any issues with it. I got the new ogo with 40% off. So i will be collecting all tue colors.

@traciperdue Жыл бұрын

👍🏼I appreciate you crocheting some up and showing it up close so I could tell what it actually looks like. I think I’ll actually like it better than the latte cake because I’ll be able to see to use it. I also like the Gradient. Thanks for sharing, Ginger. Have a good night!!!

@egoreknits Жыл бұрын

I bought nearly all the colors of the Halo yarns. Love them! Hats, scarves, and blankets Oh My! The Latte Cake yarn is heavier. Love the gradient colors. FYI, teachers JoAnn's is giving 30% off to all teachers through August 13th!!

The only thing i liked is the really slow gradient of color. Glad to know im not the inly one to notice its not a 5 bulky wieght too. And i also thought it was scratchy. Currently im useing two strands of it to make a throw. I got 4 for the blanket n another for edging but only if i need it.

Thank you for the great review Ginger! I’m not in a hurry to get this yarn just yet. It look awesome but I need a good sale first. It’s very pretty and the Ombré is fantastic. See you Saturday morning. ❤️🧶

I just started a project with the old o'go which I bought for $2.50, clearance and the yarn is not bad. I would like to make an amigurumi teddy bear with the new o'go. I think the color changes, the fuzziness and softness would look great 👍

@starbrown940 Жыл бұрын

I wonder, never having worked with an O'GO, how that shape handles the constant in and out of the project bag. It seems like it wants you in one place to stay tangle free. That's not realistic for most of us even if it's just back and forth between the couch and the craft room, lol. And then there's car rides, waiting for appointments, airports, and all those other times we crochet while we wait.

@zoni3gurl641 Жыл бұрын

First time watching you channel because I was looking for more info on this yarn. I was watching your crochet. Do you do a lot of amigurumi? It looks like you do yarn under instead of yarn over.

So frustrated, I just tried to order some of the new OGO yarn and Joann’s told me my address was wrong and wouldn’t let me go to the part where I paid for the yarn. It kept telling me parts of my address were wrong. I give up. Maybe it’s an omen. I really like the way the colors change though. I give up!

They’re on sale at Joann’s 7.49 and they have a 20% off your pick up order….so 5.99 plus tax which isn’t bad to me 🤷‍♀️

Great job Ginger. I just watched BagODay who did a nice review but you were more thorough adding the stitch swatches and more comparison with Latea Cakes.

@craftychatscafe6342 Жыл бұрын

yes the yarn is pretty...the way it's packaged still feels unnecessary to me...why add an extra thing you need to do before you can start crafting. How exactly is this neater than an easy pull tag...easy pull tags also have the advantage of less plastic in their packing. Granted its acrylic we're using so no brownie points there but still the extra strand of plastic when you open the skein feels more than needs to be there. Just my opinion....
