Not an extinct green that I have no idea what the original name was. The swatch shown on my monitor is not close to the color but it's not a light green and it's not a dark green. It has a little different twist and appearance than Super Saver. I purchased this to match part of a very old skein of Super Saver that doesn't have the band and this isn't it. Overall though Red Heart Yarn is the one I've used for most of my projects of the last 40 odd years. It has rebounded from that fiasco of the one supplier folding doors and the replacement and some of the icky dye feelings. Classic though seems to be a little thinner and a different twist than Super Saver. I still gave it five stars because it's a good yarn and I will use it for a project. Not their fault it didn't get close to a yarn made in probably the 70's or 80's. Review: Afghan project - Love Red Heart yarn. Soft, easy to crochet, good value for the money. After washing and drying the afghan is so soft and looks great. ## Features - Classic yarn is a traditional acrylic yarn - 100Percent acrylic - Recommended knit needle size: us 8 (5mm) for gauge: 17 sets x 23 rows= 4 (10 cm) - Crochet hook: i-9 (5 mm) for 12 sec x 15 rows = 4'' (10cm) - Meter age/yardage: 134M/146Yds ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001732B7O | | Best Sellers Rank | #367,422 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #5,574 in Yarn | | Brand Name | Red Heart | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (2,244) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00073650629013 | | Included Components | 1 skein of 100% Acrylic yarn | | Item Length | 5275.59 Inches | | Item Thickness | 0.04 Inches | | Item Type Name | Yarn | | Item Weight | 0.22 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Coats & Clark | | Material Type | Acrylic | | Product Care Instructions | Do Not Bleach | | UPC | 073650629013 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Red Heart - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Knitting Needle US Size:** 8 - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00073650629013 - **Item Length:** 5275.59 Inches - **Item Thickness:** 0.04 Inches - **Item Weight:** 0.22 Pounds - **Material:** Acrylic - **Product Care Instructions:** Do Not Bleach - **UPC:** 073650629013 ## Images ![RED HEART Classic Yarn, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YJruyYqPL.jpg) ![RED HEART Classic Yarn, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Ip1rha1RL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic is not Super Saver *by B***R on January 31, 2015* Not John Deere Green.
