Lorena Bamboo

I am in love with this yarn; the colors, drape, you name it. Only down-side is the size of the skeins. Being just 50g means more ends to deal with

I just finished a thorough review of the Lorena Bamboo line and I am blown away by the quality for the price. As a creator who focuses on summer wearables I was specifically looking for a bamboo blend that offers the signature silky drape without the typical splitting or sagging issues of 100% bamboo—and this comes very close.

Why I’m Impressed:

Splitting: While there are some minor split issues, it's much less splitty than most bamboos

Colors: It's rare to find this kind of color vibrancy in a bamboo.

What Could Have Been Better:

Hand-feel: It definitely feels more like an acrylic than a bamboo.

Washability: Cold Water Wash, Lay flat to dry isn't ideal for summer wearables.

I’ve shared a full deep-dive video featuring several swatches and a "drape test" to show my audience why this should be their go-to for spring/summer projects. You can find my full analysis here: [https://youtu.be/1w_STXK4Y2E]
