I want to purchase a roll but they are very large rolls. Minimum on the 3/8" is a 3600 ft roll. Anybody want a large portion?

If interested call 1-206-394-3538.

Good lord! at about 1/2 inch per rag, that's 86,400 rags! Whew, several lifetimes worth. Hope you can find the yarn in that quanity too. laugh

You brought up an excellent point about the yarn. I have gone to craft stores and they do not carry the good yarn (fat and fluffy) like the Glo Bugs brand sold at fishing stores. Does anyone know where to get some yarn similar to the stuff bought in the fishing stores but in a larger quantity? Hopefully the larger quantity would give you a price break.

lead thrower,

I have been lucky and found fat yarn, in art and crafts store or fabric stores. Some stores might be able to special order the yarn. For making rags, you can use the thinner yarn just double it up, or triple up. There is usually plenty of good colors in the thinnner yarn.

Do you remember the name of the craft store you purchased the yarn at. I have not had good luck with the ones by my house.
