Each ball of Anti-Pilling Butterfly™ features a unique stripe pattern where approximately two thirds of the cake is one solid color and the remaining third features a 5-color stripe. Each ball stops and starts at the same point of the stripe pattern, taking away the frustration of finding the right spot in the stripe pattern. Butterfly™ is made with Anti-Pilling Acrylic so your project will look Like New, Wash After Wash.™.

Acrylic fiber is widely used for textiles of all kinds: clothing, upholstery, carpets, and of course yarn. Acrylic is strong, lightweight, warm, soft, and resilient making it the yarn of choice for many.
But acrylic has a tendency to form pills – those hard little balls of tangled fibers on the surface of a fabric that make your clothes look worn way too soon. The same fine surface fibers that give the fabric its soft feel clump together and become enmeshed. Pilling is most likely in the areas of a garment that are subject to friction, like sleeve cuffs or under the arms.
Anti-pilling acrylic is a Pilbloc™ fiber preparation available in the US exclusively through Premier® Yarns. This fiber is specially formulated to resist pilling over time. If and when pills do form, they are removed through the simple process of machine washing your sweater or other project. No picking, no shaving - just toss it in the wash! Sweaters and blankets made with anti-pilling acrylic come out of the laundry looking fresh and new, time after time.

It is so soft, and the muted colors are lovely! Will buy more. The only drawback is that it is a bit ‘splitty.’

I love the look and feel of this yarn and it was nice to work with, although a little splitty to crochet with. I did, however, encounter a problem with the yardage on one of my cakes. I bought two cakes specifically to make the Cluster Cardigan. I ran out of yarn before I could finish my first hexagon. When I weighed my project it only weighed 6.2 oz instead of 7 oz. So I was short approximately 64 yards. I did, however, have the correct yardage in the second cake and was able to use some of it to finish my first hexagon. This could be a problem if you only had one cake and needed the specific yardage. Hopefully, this problem will be taken care of. All that being said, I would buy this yarn again, because it is super soft and my cardigan is a delight to wear.

I'm really enjoying learning to knit with this beautifully dyed yarn. The yarn is soft and spongy.
