Well, please keep your fiber magazines. They're all we have after all. I think things are being repeated, but only because they're all trying to reach new audiences. The froo-froo yarns are there because the current crop of fashion knitters want them. The mags have to address that somehow, or they'll lose ALL subscribers and then where would we be.
Besides, you've all got to read the Black Welsh Mountain article in the Spring Spin Off. I'm on pins & needles wondering if it'll be favorable or not - the previous BWM article way back in the 1980s was, but a lot of today's spinners don't seem to want or don't seem to understand anything other than soft, soft, soft, soft soft (aka luxury fibers and merino). BTW - did I mention something of mine will be in there (evil grin). Three cheers for a firm, medium fleece for outerwear and stuff! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Suzanne Correira, www.fireantranch.com in Elgin, TX Black Welsh & Shetland Sheep: Fibers, Yarns & Goods Roberta & Majacraft Wheels.
