Hello, ladies!
I am looking to possibly do a barter for some yarn. I use Peaches & Creme or Lily Sugar'N Cream yarns. I'm not color-picky.
I have crafts items (inks, beads, stamps, metal jewelry pieces and findings...) that I am willing to trade for some skeins of yarn. The yarns I'm looking for are $2ish per skein at Wal*Mart and Michaels stores. Not looking for much, just trading out my crafts supplies for something new and exciting. Our only light-weight / summer quilt is in tatters, and I've been wanting to try my hand at crocheting a new one for us.
Photos of what I have available for barter coming soon. Just getting all photos taken and posted to Photobucket. Thanks in advance.

| Have you used the craft cotton before? It will be very heavy as an afghan. You need lighter weight cotton to make a summer afghan. Also washing and drying the heaver will most likely be pulled out of shape. Good luck with your quest. |

I have ( or can get) the cotton yarn you are looking for. It's about $2.50 plus tax a skein. Do you want any special colors? How many do you need? You can e-mail me. Thanks, Joey

| Laura, I know we're battering here but I thought I would mention Long Creek Mills in Gastonia - they have some Lyon Brand & Peaches & Cream specials. Most reasonable cotton yarn I have seen in forever. |

They do have a web site Long Creek Mills and telephone # 866-869-6651. Lion Brand 100% pure cotton 236 yards was 6 for 7.99 and peaches and cream (same size as WM was 4 for 4.99). Take a look at the colors - I am planning to go up in the next week or so and would pick up some to exchange with you if the colors work.

Sweet, thank you ladies!! I will definitely check the site and all.
Edit: I just wanted to add a brief apology. I have been sick most of this pollen season (allergies, eye infections, etc.) and have spent the last couple weeks playing catch-up with my work and household errands. Hence, I have not been back here to reply. Thank you for your understanding.
Colors I'm seeking: I will gladly take any colors anyone isn't using as I can put them into cowls to sell this Fall. Our quilt / blanket is going to be the following colors - Bright Orange, Earthy Orange, Blueberry, Sunshine, and Panorama.
