[Nfb-krafters-korner] Stash Busters

[linda]

	Eileen,

It is a regular worsted weight yarn on size 8 needles.  The only reason I
recommended the Hobby Lobby is because the yarn is wrapped with a silver
metallic strand that makes it sparkle.  But, any worsted weight is fine! 

Hope to see you on the chat tonight!

Blessings,

Ninn:

Do you know the weight of the Red Heart yarn you use in the bag project?
