The Tip Jar
Light colored yarns are always best for learning a new technique. How to tell if they're light enough? Stand six or seven feet back and look at the yarn you're considering. If you can easily see the individual strands of yarn, it's light enough. If it looks like a pool of darkness? Then use a different color to learn with.
