Red Heart has discontinued their Shimmer yarn! And it makes me very, very sad. I used to make cowl neck scarves with that yarn all the time. I sold my work. I always got lots of compliments on them when I would wear them, and that is how I got interested parties to place orders with me. This scarf and arm warmer set is so festive for the holiday season! I wonder what kind of yarn would be a good replacement for it? I know Vanna's Choice makes on called a Glamour yarn.
