[Nfb-krafters-korner] Yarn

[Sirena Carroll]

Thank you so much for this information! That makes a lot more sense to
me now. Haha.

I was just on knitpicks.com, actually, and they really do do an
amazing job with their color descriptions, you're right.

I have the Knifty Knitter on my Amazon wishlist, so I'll probably get that.

Hat class? I don't see a hat class on the site? I'm definitely
willing, I just don't see it. Haha.
