WHAT YARN SHOULD I CHOOSE?

   different fiber / yarn and their attributes

Just beautiful!!

One of the big advantages to have a yarn shop is that I get to see all the beautiful work our customers do.

Here some of the gorgeous finished afghan's from Barb's Building Block class:

Geeta used Berroco Remix in hers.

Carol B. used Cascade, Pacific.

Here more finished projects from previous classes:

Barb P. used Kauni EQ and Kauni EF for her Volan scarf

Carol B. used one skein of Noro for her little pouch from Margrets Mosaic Knitting class.

This adorable hooded sweater called Arshile was made by Gay W. out of Berroco's Remix.  The pattern is from the Berroco booklet #303.
