Does anyone have a craft store source for antron yarn.

I have some old Aunt Lydia's sparkle yarn, but was looking for some more
white antron. I've heard that there wasn't much demand for the antron
yarn from traditional sources, so it's now it's become much harder to
find other than the small packages at the fly shop.

I agree that there are some winners and some losers when it comes to
craft store materials. Knowing the brand helps some, but companies
change their suppliers over time and the quality can change.

Rob, thanks for the heads up.

Carl
