It's a little bit pricier but is probably widely available at yarn shops when you can find one. :)<br /><br />I have notied that Patons is offering more natural fibers and so is Lion Brand. I know LB is carrying a cashmere blend that I'd really like to get ahold of and try out!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08721379533440341110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11431157.post-87469141807022863852006-10-29T10:55:00.000-06:002006-10-29T10:55:00.000-06:00I've noticed that Michael's and Hobby Lobby have ...I've noticed that Michael's and Hobby Lobby have started carrying nicer yars and some wool choices. Guess with the felting craze, they had to keep up with demand. Hat looks good so far.

I was in there earlier this year to pick up my yarn for the Olympic challenge and never noticed. My throw was given to an elderly client that I knew wasn't going to fiddle with hand washing and drying wool the proper way. Since I don't do crafts anymore I rarely go in there. Guess I will have to take a second look.vlb5757https://www.blogger.com/profile/05444876262831798051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11431157.post-1161969353517001822006-10-27T12:15:00.000-05:002006-10-27T12:15:00.000-05:00Strange about the phone message.
