Frequently asked questions
The recommended yarn is no longer available?
The patterns and pattern books which I sell are at least 20 years old: many of the recommended yarns are no longer available. Note that I do not provide recommendations for yarn substitutions. The important information for finding a modern yarn is the tension, if a pattern includes a tension, it will provided in the listing or photos. If a digital pattern does not include a tension - I will state that right in the listing.
There are a variety of internet sources to help determine substitute yarns, as well as equivalent hook and needle sizes.
