[Nfb-krafters-korner] Announcement for sweater class.

Tue Oct 25 20:06:02 UTC 2016

I like "Love That Yarn".  I have gotten cotton & acrylic blends[soft and
absorbant] and there are lots more out there.  Just be sure it is a
worstered weight and  machine washable.  Baby yarn is thin.

Joyce, do you recommend a certain yarn since it is a baby sweater? I have
found some yarns much rougher than other yarns.
