Where to get 2-ply yarn?

Hi all, I'm looking for worsted-weight 2-ply yarn for a plastic canvas project. Unfortunately, so far my searches on eBay and Google have come up with either nothing or some rather expensive skeins. The color listed in the chart is "light tan," but in the picture, it looks more grayish. (I really wonder what brand they were using.) I think what I'm really looking for is an ecru/off-white color, although I could use light gray also. Can anyone point me to a site that sells such yarn? Thanks!

Schala. . . wish I could help, but in 44+ years of knitting/crocheting, I've never heard of a 2ply worsted... I HAVE heard of and used 2 ply DK weight tho. Hope someone else can assist! Noreen

's Wool has a 2-ply wool that knits as worsted weight. 5 stitches to the inch on an American size 7 needle. They also have both colors you mentioned. DA

Would you consider 2 ply nylon yarn? Walmart sells the Needloft Brand along with Michaels. Here is a link
