Rosários4 Invicta yarn review |Keeping it Real

I recently finished and posted the free pattern for my basic crochet scarf, and since I used another new (to me) yarn, I decided to share here a review:

Invicta is a 51% wool/49% acrylic blend variegated yarn from the Rosários4 knitting collection, and it comes in 12 different colors:

Even though this is presented as a knitting yarn, it works great for crochet too. It is, however, a yarn that is variegated not only in color, but also in weight - which means that some parts of the yard are thinner than the others.

This creates a slightly wavy pattern in your work, which is perfect for blankets, shawls or scarves. I'm thinking it might not look so good in sweaters or cardigans...

For my scarf I used one skein of color 33 Invicta yarn.

Rosários4 is a Portuguese company that sells a wide range of yarns, accessories and craft kits. Their official site doesn't have an online shop as far as I can see, but it does have a lot of free patterns available, a few great tutorials and a lovely blog too. You can find their site here: https://rosarios4.com/en/

I bought the yarn locally and it doesn't seem to be available on Amazon. There are a few European craft supplies sites that sell their yarn, though, and a few do ship worldwide, so if you want to try it out just search online to find a shop that can ship it to you.

(this is not a sponsored post; I have no relationship with Rosarios4; all opinions are my own, based on my experience with this yarn)

Thank you for stopping by and happy Wednsday!
