Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton is 100% mercerized cotton with a soft sheen and crisp stitch definition. Mercerizing is a finishing process that smooths and strengthens the cotton fiber, which is why this yarn reflects light and holds a stitch pattern more sharply than a matte cotton of the same weight.
That definition is the reason it suits projects where the stitches are the point: amigurumi and toys, market bags and baskets, and homeware that needs to keep its shape. It works up at a worsted weight, so pieces grow quickly without losing detail.
It is also a practical everyday cotton. Machine washable at 40°C (105°F) and safe to tumble dry on a low heat, it stands up to baby items, kitchen and bathroom makes, and anything that gets handled often.

I have used Lion Brand Cotton before and found it very good to knit with. I do think that since the yarn is now made in Pakistan, it is not as good as when it was first made in Mexico. It had a softer feel about it. I'm having to use the new ball with the old ones from Mexico. The new ball looks a bit less fluffy, but I'm hoping it will wash a bit more softer to match. I will see how the made garments wear. Love Crafts was very good sending my order out.
It is easy to work with. I'm using it for a Christmas bauble!!!! So far so good - not quite finished. Gonna need a bigger tree!!!!
This particular yarn is great for bucket hats and sunflower handbags. Very durable and the colors are beautiful.
I really enjoyed working with this yarn. It is high-quality, and the colors are simply excellent; I bought even more for my projects. It doesn't split, feels very pleasant to the touch, and I recommend it to everyone. I will definitely buy it again for other projects.

Make a simple summer tops with Lionbrand 24/8 cotton. Great drape and very comfortable. Washed up nicely too.
Excellent yarn. I love to work with it. However - there is a new production site for the 24/7 and the skeins I recently received (from this new site) are more shiny (which is a plus), but on the other hand the yarn seems to be thinner and of lower weight, compared to previous batches from the former production site in Mexico. One should to consider that for larger projects - the structure of the newly produced yarn may not exactly fit to older batches.
Excellent quality yarn, right thickness, colour is better then on picture, very pleasant to work with. Would highly recommend. Quite expensive, try to buy on offer
I chose this yarn because it was recommended in my Unofficial Taylor Swift Lavender Haze Tank Top pattern. It is soft enough for clothing, and sturdy enough to hold its shape. I also appreciate that it doesn’t separate or unwind as I crochet with it.
