<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I have used Berroco before, but only when I got it on clearance. The quality is good but the prices are ridiculous.

This time I got it online at Webs in Northampton, MA
I know the price is insane ($30 for the costume!) but once I get the feel of this yarn, I will substitute by another one. I will probably use Lion Brand Homespun ($4 a huge ball at Michaels! versus $10 a dinky ball for the Berroco one!)
I'll try the pattern with both and will let you know!
Happy stitching!

Webs is the best yarn store. And their online prices are such a good deal if you get to the discount thresholds.

Please let us know how it turns out with Homespun. I have some left over orange Homespun that I am tempted to just start knitting with. Do you think this outfit will fit AGs? It looks like it is modeled on a Magic Attic.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yup, Rosa is modelling, but the outfit is knitted on size 15 needles, so it is bound to be stretchy. I don't think it will be any problem to put it on an AG.
I may start it with Homespun BEFORE the Berroco... can't wait and Michaels is close nearby...
Sigh! Hopeless...
