[Nfb-krafters-korner] Type of Yarn

[sunshine]

Well, I have acrylic with a mixture of cotton. I don't know the brand, but the acrylic works very well. I would suggest taking a look at different yarns to give you an idea of texture and such! I have some yarn called Automn Leaves, but I don't like it. It was given to me. Sciles. Yet, I'm sure working with it will be a little different!

Hugs
