About the Friends family
The colors of the yarns included in the Friends family are literally friends!
This means the color numbers correspond to the same color across the different Friends yarns. If you order the same color number from two different Friends yarns, they will match. Please note that there can be slight differences in the shades from fiber to fiber.
Have fun combining and matching them in all your projects.

I used the lavender shades to make a summery top and the yarn was a delight to work with. It's very soft and cool so would be perfect for a summer shawl or a cardigan for the chillier evenings. The top I made feels nice and soft on the skin . I hope to purchase more colours in the future.

This might be the best yarn I've ever worked with! Lovely colour palette, never splits, doesn't pull, and just glides on the hook. It's smooth a soft without being too heavy. Would especially recommend for projects for babies if you're looking for something safe but also comfortable!
Debbie
I used this to make a crochet granny square cardy in 6 different colours as my first crochet project. The yarn is very soft and easy to work with. Colours are lovely and the yarn is not at all splitty.

Gorgeous yarn. Silky soft to work with, beautiful texture and finish. I love the two tones you get from the combination of the silk and cotton – gives it a really vintage feel!

Loved working with this yarn. It's soft and silky to the touch, has a beautiful dual-stranded texture and looks fantastic. Would happily purchase again.
