I ordered a Debbie Biss pattern book that uses cotton/angora blend a couple of years ago. I think I finally found an affordable yarn to use with the patterns.<BR/><BR/>I use my "Needle Master" Boyes for my felting.

And maybe you'll get lucky - my not-so-local Wichael's just started carrying the new Lion Brand Cotton Ease and the colors are yummy. I haven't knit with it, but I've heard only good things. I'm with you on the eyelash yarn - exactly who is buying all of that?<BR/><BR/>I learned the hard way with Boyes (bought the Needle Master). I can use the straights all day long, but the circs are ridiculous.KelInCalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09583924963562826278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10812997.post-73375432404946709932007-04-07T10:18:00.000-05:002007-04-07T10:18:00.000-05:00In your defence, that's jolly good sock yarn (poss...In your defence, that's jolly good sock yarn (possibly usable for Hubby socks to make him forget the no-yarn-in-April thing?), and Addi's can knit through at least 12 pair of socks with no signs of wear.<BR/><BR/>Hoping to pop down to my LYS this afternoon.quantumteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10607006842837899014noreply@blogger.com
