I knit and crochet, and yarn preferences are really subjective.

I would buy your cousin a gift certificate to her local yarn shop, so she can choose exactly what she wants.

For example, I can only touch vegan yarn, merino, or silk. Everything else burns—even alpaca, which everyone insists is so soft & hypoallergenic. In addition, I have a very limited palette.

But I’m happy to hear “the kids” are getting into r/crochet.
