[Nfb-krafters-korner] Jiffy thick and thick yarn info

[Cathy]

Hello all,

Terry has asked me to post information about the Jiffy T and Q yarn, so I
have pasted it in below. I notice that a couple of these yarns are now 50%
off at Lionbrand.com at the present time. hope they aren't planning to
discontinue this yarn?  Just for the heck of it, I also looked to see if
they had any loom-knit patterns for this yarn, and the answer to that
question is no.

Sure wish Joann's had had some of the Rocky Mountains when I was there, that
one sounds so beautiful to me for a bright warm scarf or vest.

This yarn can also be found at knittingwarehouse.com for a good price, one
of my favorite online yarn shopping spots. 

 

Anyhow, enjoy!
