There are two yarns I use that are reasonable in price, soft, and don't split. One is Bernat Premium acrylic. I'm mad cuz my local Walmart stopped stocking it. Another one is I Love This Yarn acrylic from Hobby Lobby.

I ran into a real rough spot with the Caron Simply Soft I was(am) using to make a poncho...I discovered a huge unfixable mistake and figured I could easily rip it out and start over...NOT! This stuff got knotted all on its own...I spent an entire weekend plus most of a Monday getting that darn stuff unknotted and untangled...I swear, if it wasn't so pretty, and I hadn't bought so much...I would have trashed that entire project...I managed to tie together the many sections I had to cut to untangle this yarn...it may be soft and very pretty, but boy-howdy is it a humdinger to get untangled...lol
