Just Right For Any Baby: Red Heart Baby Econo Yarn
Red heart baby econo yarn is a line of yarns manufactured by Herrschners. This line of yarns has been especially designed to be used in sewing, knitting or crocheting fabrics and materials for use in a baby's room, or as baby clothing. What are some of the features of this yarn that set it apart from its competitors?
Red heart baby econo yarn is available, first of all, in a traditional form. The traditional baby Econo yarn is a 3-ply yarn, made from 100% acrylic. This yarn is very durable, and any baby clothing or blankets made from it will be very easy to care for. It is shrink-proof, colorfast, non-allergenic and machine washable and dryable.
Another popular line in the red heart baby econo yarn line is their "Pompadour" line. This yarn is also a 3-ply yarn, with a slightly different formulation -- 90% acrylic and 10% polypropylene. Even though this red heart baby econo yarn is a blend, it is still provides the same no-fuss, easy-care qualities as other red heart yarns. It is sold in 6 ounce, 460 yard skeins.
Although not an "econo" yarn, red heart baby teri yarn is another great choice when making garments for baby. It is also an easy-care yarn, made from 52% acrylic and 48% nylon fiber. This fiber combination makes this yarn very soft to the touch, and just like all red heart baby Econo yarns it can be used for both knitting or crocheting, and is sure to keep your little one toasty warm no matter how cold it gets! Along with red heart baby econo yarn, mention should also be made of their red heart "baby clouds" line of yarns. This yarn is not a blend, but is made from 100% acrylic, and is a very thick yet surprisingly lightweight yarn which will provide excellent insulating qualities. And just like red heart baby econo yarns, the baby clouds line is also shrink-proof, mothproof and colorfast. It is available in 6 ounce, 140 yard skeins. One final note: in addition to manufacturing red heart baby econo yarns, Herrschners also makes a variety of other yarns; they also sell knitting tools as well as supplies for those doing needle work, painting, scrap booking and beading/jewelry. They maintain a wonderful online store on the Internet, and I highly recommend that you visit them if you are looking to purchase red heart baby econo yarn or any of their other yarn varieties or supplies.
