www.purlsoho.com [/url] They seem like a good site but one can never know :thinking: Also does anyone have any sites that sell good quality yarn for a reasonable price?

i haven't but i did just check my work database and that address at the bottom of the home page is their valid location so it isn't a mail drop kinda place. has been in business for at least four years. that's their real phone number too so while i don't know if they are good to order from, i would likely give them a try myself since they profile where i work. (basically that means we were able to get someone to answer the phone when we verified information!)

Thank you I am gonna give them a try because they seem like they know what they are doing and I really think the bear pattern they are selling is simply adorable. However I have never made a bear or any other toy before. well theres a first for everything.

If you click on any of the banner ads here at KH, you'll find great yarn at great prices, IMHO -- WEBS, Knitpicks, Elann and Knitwerks are all soooo reasonable and have very different selections.

That's the shop of the gal who wrote/edited "Last Minute Knitted Gifts" I believe.

it's gorgeous stuff...but i can't help but find it a bit disingenuous when the store favorite is a $40 hank of yarn.....no matter how much i might love touching it and looking at it and loving it....i still ain't doin' a $40 hank of yarn. i would just end up making something silly like a hat outta it! :rolleyes:
