Is there any substitute yarns for this pattern? If so, where and what kind? I have been searching for ribbon yarns most of the day and all the ones I like are discontinued and can’t find much for a reasonable price.
bernet miami is discontinued
Berocco lullaby is discontinued.
I do not live anywhere close to a yarn store except for the small selections we have at the Joann fabric store. I would really like to find a substitute for the yarns shown. Thank you!
I found the equivalent of Bernat Miami, which is Patons Fresco, on ebay, here. Apparently Bernat and Patons are owned by the same company.
All I found was this one colour, but there are 10 balls available at only $1.99US/ball on ‘Buy it Now’. That’s pretty cheap.
Yes I did check there as well but cannot find all the colors I want…
Any other suggestions for a ribbon type yarn?
Have you checked out yarndex? It’s a yarn directory, with a lot of good info about all kinds of yarns from different manufacturers. It doesn’t have every yarn in the universe, but it has a lot, and hopefully will help you find suitable alternatives. If you do an advanced search, you can choose “ribbon” as your yarn texture. You can also limit your search by color, weight, and fiber content. Once you find a yarn you like, it usually gives a link to an online store where you can buy it. HTH
