Fuzzy Tangles
A funky and chunky yarn that comes in a good variety of colors. We like this yarn mainly for trims and for fashion accessories such as purses. The chunkiness and fuzziness may make this a difficult yarn for beginnners.ReThreads Recyled
While we're a big fan of going green, we're not really too sure about this yarn. The quality of the fibers seem a little weak, and we suspect that this yarn wouldn't wear well if used to create clothing items or anything that would get a lot of use.Sock Monkey
Like the name implies, this yarn is great for socks. It is soft yet durable. Yarn crafters of all skill levels will appreciate how easy this yarn is to work with.
