Tell Jake Auntie Joyce will hold his paw next time the big boomers   come

Aunt  Joyce, dare was a big mean storm wents through last night.
Love Jake  

Storms like that are very rare where I live in western  Washington.  Sounded
like a good old Pennsylvania thunder  storm.

The two  types of  striping yarn with orange I have here neither are  vana
yarns.   But I love the feel the stretchiness of the Vanna yarns.  So Enjoy
the  adventure of another yarn line.

Warm  smile,

Becky,

That yarn does sound  perfect.  Is the yarn you  mentioned the Vanna yarn?  
 
Do
you have any idea the name of the   yarn?

Thanks,
Annette

Oh wow, that  sounds like such cool  yarn and just what you are looking for
Annette.   I bought from a  store closure estate sell and have orange 
striping
yarn  with  appracot. There might be a touch of yellow in there can't
remember,  in  mine that is.  Do you all remember Dream Cycles, the  orange
and white  iced cream bars and Summer's dream iced cream from  Schwanns? 
That
is the  color.  It is absolutely my husband's  favorite yarn color. He will
reach for that yarn every time when I just and  the customer can't decide on
a color to use.  He says, "Oh Beck use  the Dream cycle yarn," and  hands me
the entire bag. I made a little  person jacket out of the yarn and  my
customer, who couldn't decide  was blown away.

I just checked vanna's choice that Joyce  suggested,  the only orange 
stripes
is an orange with shades of  apricot in it. Will  keep looking. I'm looking
for some yarn  also.
