[Nfb-krafters-korner] super bulky yarn for babies and toddlers, among other yarn chatter

[minh ha]

Hi Cathy,

I was looking at yarns just now and ran across a yarn by Bernat called
handigrafter holiday sparkle. It's 98% cotton and 25 metallic. I'm not
sure about the colors available, but I'm thinking of getting some to
make a sparkly scarf when I teach the class. Thought you might be
interested.
