troutguy 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2013 My wife brought this stuff home from a yarn store. She uses it to make scarves. I comes in nice colors. Very minnow looking. It is only $1.25. CHEAP! The photo does not capture the sparkle well. I spin it and just tie it like hair. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mybadhabit 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2013 Angelina fiber is great stuff, lots of sparkle, cheap and makes great sparkle dubbing too. I have many bags of the stuff and use it frequently. Blane Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mybadhabit 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2013 Or if you look it up online, it is used to decorate shirts and dresses, it is an iron on type plastic fiber that melts to the fabric. Unless you use it a lot, one bag will last you and a couple friends a lifetime, you can find it at soft expressions for the cheapest price last I checked.

JasonJones 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2013 I have a bunch of colors of this and its great by itself, or mixed with dubbing. A few colors of this stuff I have upwards of 10+ pounds of. I'll never run out... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Markbob 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2013 I picked up some various types of raw wool in a yarn shop while sight seeing with my Mom the other day. looks like great dubbing and comes in natural or dyed colors. Its kind of funny how you stumble upon materials in other craft shops. I wonder if it ever works the other way around? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
