Ravelry's top yarns

Most popular yarns on Ravelry July 29, 2011.
This is a little shocking to me, is anyone else surprised? Red Heart? Caron? Lion Brand? Vanna White?

I am admittedly a yarn snob, but this was an eye-opener. Cascade and Noro are no surprise, but I didn't know that Malabrigo had such wide distro.

  1. OK, I just looked at some of the sweaters people are knitting with Vanna's Choice, and many of them are beautiful, skillfully crafted, complicated patterns. I don't get it. This is just like Grandma Vivian, who was an absolutely brilliant knitter but insisted on using disgusting acrylic yarn. I can understand if you're making something for a fast-growing, rough and tumble kid, but can someone tell me why you would knit with this stuff otherwise?
