Not that i've ever tried anything like this myself. I'm going to give this some more thought, might try it out myself. hmmmAndrew Kieranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08997798351349771733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-85827655021448138362010-10-20T11:51:46.984-04:002010-10-20T11:51:46.984-04:00Humble - Lion Brand Suede, it's sort of a tigh...Humble - Lion Brand Suede, it's sort of a tightly packed chenille yarn look at this it here:<br />http://www.lionbrand.com/yarns/lionSuede.htmlDEEP END OF THE LOOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010018190905285835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-23714940509192911172010-10-14T19:13:31.354-04:002010-10-14T19:13:31.354-04:00what's a suede yarn when it's at home? i&#...what's a suede yarn when it's at home? i've got suede. brown suede boots.Andrew Kieranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08997798351349771733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-38039728337537442402010-10-14T07:15:34.584-04:002010-10-14T07:15:34.584-04:00Thats a tough one.

Its a good time to get the weaving books out and browse weaves. And this is where the dreaded sampling comes in. Still, I find that when I sample it opens the floodgates of creative thought. You may even come up with something you like better!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-33768180671619864642010-10-14T06:30:37.868-04:002010-10-14T06:30:37.868-04:00Another try it vote.

Keep in mind your reed sizes and look for a lofty yarn, something that bulky you want light and warm.Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574936988046982209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-83922742491954085092010-10-13T17:54:37.656-04:002010-10-13T17:54:37.656-04:00What kind of loom do you have?What kind of loom do you have?Loree Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026063430473415288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-4940411249084048162010-10-13T16:43:37.030-04:002010-10-13T16:43:37.030-04:00I agree - try it first.

You don't need to sley in every dent, but you don't want the yarn to be traumatised every time you beat.<br /><br />Anyway, I thought you were de-cluttering???!!Callyhttp://callybooker.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32201890.post-23342570475212378892010-10-13T14:57:09.483-04:002010-10-13T14:57:09.483-04:00I would try it myself first and then you could alw...I would try it myself first and then you could always buy it if it bombs but think how much you will learn first!Delighted Handshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01289187765260532813noreply@blogger.com
