[Nfb-krafters-korner] Looking for self-striping yarn

[Annette Carr]

Joyce,

I'm not Barb, so I hope you do not mind my responding.

Self-striping yarn has long runs of color that depending on the number of
stitches you are working with will result in multiple rows of that color.
So you end up with stripes in your finished project.  Variegated yarn uses
short segments of each color so you rarely get the same color stacking up on
itself as you work the next few rows.  

Self-striping is popular in sock yarn.  But now other types of yarn are
being made this way.

I hope this makes sense.

Annette

Barb,
 
Is this self-striping yarn or variegated yarn?
