~ who's heard of... ~
...Fruit of the Loom yarn? I've been crocheting for around 29 years and I've never heard of it. On my last trip to the thrift store I bought a few small bags of yarn and this skein was included in one of the bags. It's a 4 ounce skein of 100% acrylic. There is a price tag on it and the price is $1.36 - the store name is Dart. The feel is like Red Heart - I'm hoping that it will soften in the dryer (like Red Heart does) after I crochet a couple of squares with it. :)

I've only every heard of their tee shirts - who knew they did yarn?! I didn't!!
ReplyDeleteWhen growing up in Idaho our local Ben Franklin store carried it. I haven't seen it for years.
ReplyDeleteThat's a new one for me, never heard of Fruit of the Loom yarn.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of it either. Let us know how it turns out!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of it before. I hope it works up nicely for you. Have a nice evening Debi. :-)
ReplyDeleteNew to me too, but I sure do love that shade of pink! And we all know how much you love your "pink" :)
ReplyDeleteNever heard of it or Dart. I love the color though.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun thrift store find. I have never managed to find yarn at any thrift store here. But no, like everyone else, I haven't heard of it. :)
ReplyDeleteI got some of this yarn at (I think) a yard sale,in a bag of yarn. The color I have is a dark brown. It would be nice if I could find some more. Oh,and I have a question for you. This post made me think of this yarn I also got,and I think the name of the yarn is Jack Frost. I was wondering,if you have ever heard of it?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info Bev. :)
ReplyDeleteHi windtea - I've heard of Jack Frost - it's an older yarn that's been discontinued for awhile. You might be able to find some on Ebay. :)
Okay,thank you,Debi.
