Project Yarn VS Play Yarn

Have I got you altogether confused? Well, read on!!

A customer came in and she was having trouble reading her crochet pattern AS WELL AS crocheting with the yarn that it called for.

Since the yarn she was using was a ribbon yarn - ZEN from Berroco Inc., I showed her the stitch that she was having some problems with in another yarn so she could see it better.

So, what's the solution: You're not sure how to stitch this project and the yarn that you're using is beautiful, but it's giving you some trouble. Take some scrap yarn, preferably worsted weight and a light color, and try the pattern. It's easier when you can see exactly what you're doing!! Then when you have it down pat, then go back to the original yarn. If you can see it with "normal" yarn, then you'll understand better with your fancy yarn!!

HAPPY STITCHING, my friends!
