Hi Litsa, your makes are beautiful :) the baby dress is super cute :) it reminded me that i made a baby dress out of this yarn also,the chest part is a grey and the lower half is sierra :) i will find a photo to show you :) I gifted it to my friends 1st grand baby :) I dont have any of the birch multi twist left in my stash but this was the yarn i used to make a small throw blanket for my chair. this was the second granny square project i ever made and was also the 1st time crocheting with a thicker yarn instead of 8ply. My late sister inlaw sent me 3 balls of it up from Tassie to try

[@cocoscrochet6380]

Hi Thea 🤗 thank you for making Yarn of the Month super special! The Sierra is perfect for baby dresses! I’d love to see the blanket you made using next months yarn! 🥰🧶🤩

[@amybettencourt3404]

Beautiful yarn, and your makes with it are awesome, Litsa! When I use that style of yarn, I've sometimes had to use tiny little scissors to separate the fibers (just use the points!). 🐞

Hi, thanks for showing us both the Paton's Sierra yarn and also the different things made with it, the stitch definition is off the charts isn't it!?! That dress is gorgeous and it came together so nicely with all the different colours that came through. Are you able to tell us what the different colourways are that you showed, such as the donut that you were picking up intermittently with the label on it please? Also if you knew what colour the hat was made from and also the lovely dress? I have been lucky enough to get some of this yarn from Lincraft, so keep that store in mind when you're looking for it. You have to order online and definitely wait patiently until a good sale is on! Currently they are having a 40% off sale, BUT it's not including any online yarns which is frustrating, so it is the full $10 at the moment, but if you wait until a 30% yarn sale or 50% off yarn sale (they come around occasionally) you will be able to get a donut for only $5!!! So worth holding out for! I got some when it was a 30% sale I think, and paid $6.30 per donut, but this yarn, as you can understand, is popular so you also have to be lucky enough for it to be in stock, that is the next thing, but if all your ducks line up then you'll be right! I agree that there are some comparable yarns out there, both for the feel and the colourways, the main one being the Moda Vera Valley yarn, which I think you've said before as well. That as you know though is 100% acrylic, but a good alternative for anyone who likes the Sierra but can't use wool! :)

[@cocoscrochet6380]

Hi alwayslearning 🤗 thank you for sharing the information on Lincraft…it’s funny, Lindcraft doesn’t come to mind when I think of yarn shopping, only because I don’t have one nearby…but of course, as you said, there’s on-line shopping! I used mill ends for my projects so I’m sorry I can’t give you colourways. Thank you sooo much for hanging out with us! 🥰🧶🤩

[@alwayslearning9272]

@@cocoscrochet6380 I know, I had a feeling you were forgetting about Lincraft as another option so that's why I mentioned it again. Also when it comes to them being another option for the Sierra yarn they only sell it online, it's not available in stores anyway, so that saves you trying to get there. My closest one is about an hour away so I don't have one close by either. Are you able to tell me what colour/number the one is that you're holding please? That would get me off to a start towards working out the colours. Thanks :)

[@cocoscrochet6380]

@alwayslearning9272 Hi alwayslearning 🤗 Colour 4241…I’m not sure if it’s correct as most of my Sierra yarn was in mill ends, this was a random ball band that I have…hope you find some nice colours at good prices! 🥰🧶🤩

[@hannepoulsen6005]

Lovely colours and Beautiful projects, thanks for sharing. Have not tried this yarn 🧶 yet, but it’s on my list now 😊hopefully I can get it here

[@cocoscrochet6380]

Hi Hanne 🤗 I’m glad your enjoying this episode! 👏🏻👏🏻 I hope you find some Sierra or similar yarn! 🤞🏻🥰🧶🤩
