These little guys are fabulous (Hint they are small because "bonbons")

The negative reviews regarding how small the balls are - clearly from people who do not knit. You can get One skein of regular yarn for this price, maybe. Meantime, Bonbon - google the images. They are small candies (usually chocolate covered). Ergo, this yarn is named. It is Fantastic for accessories - creating flowers, etc. for embellishment. Knits up nice. I am making tiny Christmas ornaments, and tags, and flowers for barrettes. It is helpful to research the project you want to work on - then get the yarn for that project. It all works out.

Pretty Little Bonbons

I never used this yarn until my employer requested a sample that required using Bonbons . It was super easy to use and the sample is so pretty . I used the leftovers in a weaving project late winter. I was quite surprised. I plan to use this purchase in a future weaving project this summer.

Soft

Soft thread, warm colors. A lot smaller than I expected but that’s my fault for not paying more attention.

For a larger product of course it would be better for larger skeins of yarn

They are smaller than I imagined (I thought they would be the size of the Lily Sugar'n Cream cotton yarn) but they are still sufficient for the small project for which I purchased them. For a larger product of course it would be better for larger skeins of yarn, but for small multicolor projects this is great. Each skein I received measured about 2 1/2" by 1". However they seem pretty densely packed (I couldn't get to the thread that generally comes from the center of the yarn and so had to start from the outside in due to how densely it was packed, which is good!) Some ideas of the small size of projects would be like hackey sack bean bags, small frisbees, coasters, bookmarks, wash cloths, etc.

Much on the wee side lassies

These are really small. I was thinking like can of corn size and they are more like matchbox car size. I couldn't picture the amount listed in my head. Nice yarn. Cute. Works for project, just not enough to go around for everyone to get to use it.

So pretty...

These tiny skeins of yarn are very small, but so cute. The weight and texture of this particular selection is similar to heavy pearl cotton and would be appropriate for making doilies, baby sweaters/booties/hats, doll clothes, and other "smalls." The description is accurate--be sure to read it carefully before buying, so you won't be disappointed when you see how small Bonbons really are. The nice thing about Bonbons is that you don't have to buy a huge skein of yarn for a small project, and you get a variety of nice colors.

Good for small projects

These are so tiny!! I should have read the reviews before purchasing in order to get a better idea of what I am getting. I am new to the yarn world so the package may have stated the size.. Maybe even the word Bonbons should have given me a clue. but other than that they are great colors and seem to be good quality yarn

Super Duper Teeny Tiny!

Eensy weensy teeny tiny little bundles of yarn (like a sampler pack sort of, or for a kid to use) but pretty colors and soft! I bought these for making a yarn wreath since these little bundles are easier to pass through the hole in the wreath than a huge thing of yarn. A little overpriced for what you get, considering you can buy 1 bundle of yarn for less and get more yarn! But I'd seen these in craft stores and knew what I was getting so I wasn't disappointed.

Bundle packs

Love these little bundled of yarn. So easy to carry/ have on hand, while waiting. Each little bundle make a nice size granny square, connect all for a scarf or hat. Use all in separate pattern for a hat, scarf. Nice soft yarn

Tiny skiens of bold colors

These are tiny bonbons. There a nice thin yarn but not that much of each color I made a infant hat and it took 3 skiens. Bold colors are great sleek yarn no fuzzing, works well. Nice variety pack but expect to change colors often doing a project and keep them small. Would work well for hand embroidery or small crochet projects, or just friendship bracelets. Would buy again now that I know what they are but was a little surprised when got them cause they were so small but I'm new to crochet so it's a beginners error.
