I looked in my favorite yarn site, Blue Moon Fibers, and found a few colors which might intrigue. My favorite is <br /><br />http://www.bluemoonfiberarts.com/newmoon/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=19_20_577 <br /><br /> in the color Vintage. I think the Polworth yarn would be closest to Mad Tosh merino. The BFL sport is also lovely, a little less twisted.<br /><br />I have always had a good experience with them. The colors change from time to time, as they put new ones up and take down others, but they can reproduce them with their formulas.

This class was on how to read antique knitting patterns. Franklin, as always, was his witty, friendly self and an excellent teacher. It was a most enjoyable class and worth every penny of the fee. <br /><br />All of Franklin's other classes filled within minutes of the Registration opening several months ago, but I was #1 on the Waiting List for another one of his classes. Unfortunately, no who signed up for that class (Snips and Zips) broke their leg, so I was out of luck. Does that make me a bad person, hoping someone would break his/her leg and not be able to attend class?<br /><br />Mary G. in Texas Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-67523319875831033082013-04-07T13:06:25.679+01:002013-04-07T13:06:25.679+01:00I saw recently an article about someone using twee...I saw recently an article about someone using tweets on twitter as "found poetry" for cross-stitch samplers. Perhaps you could recommend the best of the spam for a similar fate? "So what can this all imply?" would make a lovely wall-hanging!<br />cheers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
