Most people who buy yarn do. red Heart makes super-cheap completely artificial yarn. For the most part they're scratchy and uncomfortable in glaring colors.<br/><br/>In my work as a knitting and crochet instructor one piece of advice has consistently served my students and myself well. Find yarn you love, and find a pattern you love. You're much more likely to follow through on something you're passionate about than on something that cheap and easily accessible.<br/><br/>That being said, red heart has good stitch definition and lots of colors -- it's great for baby and child-safe toys, and is cheap enough for an afghan -- a scratchy and uncomfortable afghan, but for many folks that's the only way their going to afford that volume of yarn.<br/><br/>I think of it this way, personally: I'd rather have half as many nice things than twice as many cheap ones.<br/>...
