-My Best Yarn Ball-

Postby hollywood on Sat Aug 21, 2010 3:55 pm

This is only the fourth yarn ball I have ever tied up and it turned out really good. I am very excited for you guys to fish this new yarn. It is incredibly soft and a lot of fun to work with. I would say its superior in every way. :D I have some garlic oil I put on one and let it sit in the sink for hours, rinsed it and put it back in the water. You can still smell the garlic like I just put it on and it does not mess with the look or movement of the yarn ball in the water. This is some pretty cool stuff. Some of the guys who have been using it and tying up yarn balls are really excited about it. :D

Here is a picture of my fourth yarn ball and best so far! Its a mix of baby pink, cerese, peach and shrimp-pink. The fibers are so soft that the colors mix and blend perfectly! Also a big plus to this yarn is that the colors will never leech onto another color! You can make a black and white yarn ball and after fishing it over and over it will stay BLACK and White. ;)

We will be done with our next big batch and will start taking orders end of next week. \M/

hey chad, it was nice to meet you last week. the thing that i like most about your yarn was how fibrous it was (for lack of a better term). it took a little more work to fluff up, but try running a hook barb through the yarnie you can't do it. if a steelhead sucks it in, he ain't spitting' it out. it's a tooth grabber. like we talked, my only suggestions would be more vibrant colors. on my next boat delivery, i'll stop in and check out your new colors. cheers

It was good talking with you. I think you will like this newer material in that it is amazing to work with. It also grabs hooks, rough fingers and anything else it touches! =)) Another advantage to this new fiber is the fact that it takes the color more vibrantly and has a slight shine to it. More like the colors of feathers just brighter overall. Thanks for the input as well!
