Knitting & Crocheting

? for anyone

17 years ago

Does anyone know what this kind of yarn is called, and where it can be found. It reminds me on the 1970's hair "ribbons" we used to tie around our ponytails but its thinner. Any help you could give would be great.

I have no clue what it is but thanks for memory of the 70's hair ribbons, I loved wearing those.

Hmmm I have seen several ultra bulky yarns in my LYS that look like those hair ties! :) I thought just THAT when I looked at them. :) but I don't remember the brand names. Oh, and Joanne's has some too.
