To Mary-
Thank you for the information. I ended up using individual strands of yarn and with some (lots) of practice, got it to work well enough to make me mostly happy with the results. I'll take a look at the website you mentioned. It wouldn't hurt to have some 'fuzzy' type thread for future projects. Again, thank you!
