Need name of yarn
Hi
I am looking for the name of a Sirdar yarn... it was a hairy yarn and supposedly they have discontinued making it. It looked like an short eyelash yarn. This lady made a darling baby (cardigan) sweater and mixed it with Cascade, Cherub Collection (DK) I saw the sweater and am guessing that the yarn must be very lightweight..The lady couldn't remember what that hairy yarn's name was. I am hoping someone has used this eyelash/hairy type yarn and knows the name so I can write different yarn shops to see if they still carry some. She mentioned Cloud, but that might have been the name of the Cherub mint green color. Any help would be wonderful. She loved the yarn bec/ it was the only eyelashy type yarn that was both machine washable and machine dryable!! Why they discontinued it is beyond me!!! Thanks, Linda |

Thanks for all your input...one of the yarns is sirdar--Cascade, Cherub
Collection....the other yarn that was used to make this baby sweater has been discontinued. :-( It is by Hayfield and called Shimmer yarn. I guess Hayfield has gone out of business?? Does anyone have any Shimmer still in their yarn shops?? Let me know if they do and what colors they have. Thank you again for all your advice....1 yarn to go! Linda |

Linda,
I tried to do an online search for you, but did not come up with any Shimmer yarn by Hayfield right now. I did notice, however, that an Ebay sale of Shimmer just recently ended. So, I am going to suggest to you that you watch those Ebay sales daily. Janise "Linda" wrote in message ...
