I have a #yarn question.
I want to make my Mum a replacement for her old crocheted teddy bear. The original is long gone. I found the vintage pattern, but the yarn mentioned in the pattern is equivalent to a soft wool. The original bear was made from something fairly rough, almost scratchy, and I’m trying to recreate this.
The question: does anyone have any recommendations for rough, almost scratchy brown yarn in worsted or aran weight?
