Hi,
There is a rug making concern in Hendersonville, NC that sells cones of

yarn
of all types out of its attic above the showroom. If you're not in that
area, you might try other rug makers, asking if they sell their excess
yarns.

Yes it is a tapimatic

Thanks so much for links. I tried several strands but it wasn't very
successful. I actually thought I might have to throw the machine out!

Thankyou Shelley

I was referred to this NG as a possible source of expertise. I hope

someone
can help.

I have a rug making machine that is not unlike a knitting machine to
operate. Unfortunately the only rug-making yarn I can find is precut

into
short lengths for hand knotting using a latch-hook.

Does anyone know of a source for heavy yarns in balls, skeins or

hanks
suitable for rugmaking?

Most grateful for any information
