If you love Berroco like I love Berroco...

You'll want to be sure to sign up for our newsletters right away. Our next Spotlight is going to feature the fantastic people at Berroco yarns.

We absolutely adore Norah Gaughan and her mathematically inspired designs. (She's a scientist at heart) and we know you're going to enjoy learning about her. You'll see lots of her newest patterns and all those fantastic yarns that go with them.

I have to tell you that I really enjoy working on the Spotlight newsletters because I get to speak to industry luminaries like Norah and Warren Wheelock (the owner of Berroco) and learn all about how they ended up doing what they love. Can you imagine having a job where you're doing your hobby everyday...for money?!

Be sure to visit Yarnmarket today to sign up so you'll receive your very own issue of Spotlight as soon as it's available.

I found a dress pattern on the Berroco website the yarn has been discontinued Sensuwool can someone suggest an alternate yarn.

Joan, we're trying to think of a substitute for you but this is a tough one. I'll get in touch with Norah Gaughan and post her response.

I spoke with Norah and she suggests Vintage though its properties are not the same as the original Sunsuwool. You might want to look in Yarndex.com for a suitable substitution if Vintage isn't going to work for you.
