Yarn in [1] Super Fine and [2] Fine recommendations?
I bought a couple of nice crocheting and knitting magazines, and quite a few patterns are calling for yarn weights in both [1] and [2]. Any recommendations for yarn in these weights that I can get at either Walmart, AC Moore, Michaels or Joann Fabrics? I would prefer not to order online for these (want to see them in a store)… but if I absolutely have to, I will. Also, if there is some other trick (e.g. using 2 or 3 strands of a particular size of crochet thread) please let me know.
First of all to save you gas check the Wal-mart store in your area on the phone and see if the are still carrying yarn. Secondly don’t go to Joann’s as I and a friend of mine went to the store and all that they had was a counter about 25 foot long so there was not much for you to look at and I could not find what I wanted but was shown on line. Michael’s has quite a few counters holding yarn so that may help you and Sorry I have no knowledge of A C Moore. As far as your [1] and [2] did you look at the recommendation for the yarn and the name of the manufacturer? You may also find the information in the back of the book where I have been able to locate the manufacturers. You can go on line to AC Moore and Joann and see if they have what you are looking for. With Joann if you are not satisfied with the item you can return it and if you talk to them on line they will send you a return label so you wont have to pay to return the item. I don’t know if AC Moore does this but you can check. Hope this helps.
