[rebeccav]

okay, i might have missed the thread if someone else has already discovered this:


paton's has 3 new yarns
pebbles - freaky but neat, looks like pebbles imbedded in divine
evita - railroad yarn
mosaic - SOFT, yummy color mixes

oh, and there was one more i saw for the first time today... it was right next tot the microspun... had some angora, nylon, cotton..... i think.... i don't remember the name. soft stuff

also, lion brand cotton ease - has this always existed???

you'd be oh so proud - i only bought what i went in for :angel

well, nothing that exciting :blush - 3 accent colors of wool ease for a scarf for a friend and some clearance woolease for a sweater for my son :))

Yeah! I know what you mean, that stuff is so soft and smooth. I just bought 10 skeins at a hobby lobby sidewalk sale last weekend to knit a baby blanket, i was thrilled because it was 2/3's off the normal price!!!:yay2

Joanns had some of those. I've seen the Pebbles, that was cool, wasn't it? The Mosaic was nice and they were sold out of the Evita or hadn't gotten it yet. Now I can't wait to see it. They also had Voodoo, which reminded me of the fringe on old terry bath towels. I want some! :)h Seems like the Cotton Ease has been out for a while, but maybe somebody can correct me on that.

Cotton ease has been out for awhile.. though my Michael's has decided NOT to carry it anymore. I have a half finished project - and had to order some directly from Lions. :)) I love the internet!

I'll have to check on the new yarns. They sound YUMMY! :)h

Was the other yarn you saw Katrina? I noticed that the last time I was in AC Moore or Michaels. It looks so pretty...

[Ambersafghans]

Is that Katrina, or Catalina?
Just curiouse because I have some Catalina, but haven't found any more of it.

Rebecca, you are trying to lead us astray, aren't you??? <img border=0 src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/lildevil.gif" /> (heehehehe, I like that new guy!)

I'm trying to be good, really! <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/angel.gif" />I'm trying to work only from my stash. I've been trying to get a lot of things done to sell next weekend and I haven't been motivated lol! I've got my mind wrapped around getting a new car and I've been conniving to see if I can make that happen. <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/cutewink.gif" /> Hey, that takes a lot of time!!!! Anyway, looks like I'm going to sell my Jeep and get a Honda Element.
I think I was having a midlife crisis when I bought the Jeep in the first place (I had had one back when I was 18 & single lol!)
I love it, but it simply is not practical. The Element will still have an air of fun-ness, yet have room for groceries.

Edit...
Oh brother, I sent the post w/out mentioning my real point.
I used Patons Katrina for the scarf swap scarf that Tiff got. It's kind of slinky and stretchy and shimmery, but not metallic.
I found it at a small chain craft store. I've never seen it at the big box craft stores. Anyway, I'm not sure if it's a new yarn for them and the rest haven't gotten it or it's an old yarn, and the others have stopped carrying it <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/shrug.gif" />
