The piglets need a fingering weight so I can't think of a non -wool substitute off the bat for that one. I'll keep thinking though.<br />susanSusan B.

I think I want to knit the whole set as a present for my sister, but I have a little problem - I can't knit with Spud and Chloe yarn because I'm intolerant to wool. Usually I just make substitutions on my own, but since this set has so many coordinating parts I thought I would write and see if you have a recommendation for a line of yarn that has similar colors and loft properties for us non-woolies to use. <br /><br />Thanks for your help! I just love your books and patterns!Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17836046285271840670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35689847.post-10277727552649057682011-03-14T17:25:45.704-05:002011-03-14T17:25:45.704-05:00I just received Spud & Chloe at the Farm and s...I just received Spud & Chloe at the Farm and sooo excited!!!

I contacted Amazon customer service via their online form. Their response said that they have (for my order, not in general) "rectified the error," upgraded the shipping to 2-day delivery for free, and adjusted the price per the pre-order price guarantee. They gave no explanation for why pre-orders are not being shipped in a timely manner compared to orders placed today, but the customer service I received was excellent, so I encourage you to contact that department if you're in the same situation. I should receive the book by the middle of next week now.

I hope that the "pre-order price guarantee" applies because my invoice has a higher price than the current selling price, but I don't know if the price drop occurred on the release date or after that. Do you have any knowledge about when Amazon plans to ship its pre-ordered copies?<br /><br />TC's crafts are amazing! They make me smile. I'm looking for rainbow-themed items for my charitable project; if TC ever wants to make some rainbow bracelets for that purpose, please let me know!

I pre-ordered, but mine is not scheduled to ship until later this month. I have a feeling I'll have to save up to buy the yarn for all of the projects in this book. My kids keep oohing and aahhing over all of preview pictures you're posting. <br /><br />I love TC's projects. She's a wonderful crafter. I never knew how to do the gum wrapper chain, so thanks for posting the tutorial. My favorite gums were Juicy Fruit and Fruit Striped gum, too!
