And I would add ... in all likely probablility a four-ply. Noreen
"Wooly" spun ANOTHER fine yarn in message news: snipped-for-privacy@4ax.com...

Hi Stella,
Yes, Red Heart and the old Germantown are just about the same. I remember using that to make mittens many years ago.
Hugs,
Nora
Yep! Just like red heart! (red heart, though is an acrylic... if you're
*wanting* wool, just any worsted 4 ply) Hugs, Noreen
