I can't find the Baby bee yarn that is used for the leg warmers. What are some good alternatives?

I think any sport weight yarn should be alright, as long as it meets gauge. In testing I used Bernat Softee Baby and Red Heart Sport.

the baby see can be found at http://shop.hobbylobby.com/search/defau ... m=baby+bee


bernat baby jacquards, bernat baby softee, lion brand babysoft, patons big baby should all work. just be sure to do a gauge swatch. the original yarn is 60% acrylicc, 40% nylon. getting a yarn of the same fiber content will also help with selecting a substitute yarn.
