Sounds lovely, but try finding that stuff here! Perhaps in a later year...I can see that it could possibly be a nice hobby if we do decide to buy an RV and travel around. Mobile internet can get expensive, so I might have more down time in that kind of lifestyle. I do recall from my past crafting, though, that anything thin and silky can be harder to work with and require a bit more skill. Bulky yarns are so much more forgiving! I did crochet some snowflakes out of thin white cotton twine, though, and those were kinda fun. You soak them in a water/cornstarch solution when you're done, then let them dry, so they get stiff and make lovely Christmas ornaments.
