This is a lovely kitchen set and would make a great housewarming gift. Is your Mainstays cotton yarn from Walmart? I bought some of that because of the price but I haven't gotten around to using it yet.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sande! Yes, I used Mainstays yarn from Walmart. Happy knitting! Warmly, Kaylan
