What color is this? I'm making a blanket using up old yarn and can't figure this one out.

It's the blue/green color. I am almost out of this color, and I really want to be able to finish this blanket the way I am picturing it in my head. I need to order more, but I can't color match it for the life of me! I think it is either red heart or lion brand. It's probably pretty old, the woman still had skeins of yarn in Ames bags from the 90s! I know for sure that it is not "real teal" by red heart. If anyone could help me I would be so appreciative!

Thrift Store Yarn Haul - need help IDing some yarns

Hi there! Relatively new knitter here. I have been really enjoying thrifting yarns and using them and I had honestly what seems to have been an amazing haul yesterday. I found some that still have their labels so obviously I know what they are, but I found some cakes of what LOOKS to me like some kind of Noro yarn and I’m wondering if anyone recognizes the kind?

Anyways if anyone recognizes any of the non labelled ones let me know!! I prefer to use natural fibres as I’m sure most people do. Thanks!

I want help deciding the type of yarn to use for this top.

I am planning to make this top and I don’t know what kind of yarn I can use to give me this look of baggy on the top.
I’d also not want it to be warm and prickly on the skin.
Can anyone help me out for this as I’m not too sure of types of yarns to use?

I need to find more of this yarn. Making a hat using thrifted yarn.

I got this yarn with no label at a thrift store. I would love to make myself a hat with it. I think it is lightweight, I used a 1.25 mm hook to get this DC rectangle, and I’m pretty sure it is all acrylic.

I don’t know who’s to describe the mix of colors- it reminds me of rag wool socks.

Does anyone recognize it?

Help identify yarn

I got this yarn as a gift a year ago. It is a purple/plum/cream self-striping. It is aran weight, and a sort of wool blend. There isn’t a tag on it, so any help identifying it would be amazing!

It was bought at Rumoleskiltskin Yarn in Huntington, NY, which closed down in the last year. I am working on a cardigan and losing yarn chicken, so even similar options would be greatly appreciated!!
