    Yes, their colors really are nice. This is a relatively cheap yarn that you can get at most craft stores, but it wears pretty well and it's machine washable and dryable so I've used it for many pairs of hose. I believe Arlen prefers acrylic for his garter ties, though. Is that so, Arlen?

    I prefer wool but I'll use whatever I can get my hands on so long as I like the colour and it's decent quality.
