Thread: Original Sparkle Yarn for sale?

  1. #1

    Default Original Sparkle Yarn for sale?

    Hello, I have some extra sparkle yarn that I would like to sell. These are the original yarns Gary Lafontaine calls for on several of his flies. The Sparkle Pupa series being the most popular. I do not want to sell the yarn by the skein. I would like to sell it for 8 yards for $1.00. Supplies would be limited and would be on a first come, first serve basis. Just wanted to see how many were interested before I post a list of what I have on Things For Sale. Thanks, Jim

    J,

    In one of GLF's videos he says that there were 3 manufacturers of that yarn. I recall that Dazzleaire(sp) is one. Is that what you have?

    I think I'll re-watch that video to make sure about what he said.

    Hi Guys; Is it true that Sparkle Yarn is no longer available on the market? Have asked this before but no replies. I enjoy working with it and it will be sorely missed. Jax

    Jax,

    You can still buy it at Gary's offical website. If you have problems buying and shipping international just let me know what you want and I'll get it and ship it to you.

    Tyeflies, There were several brands of this type of yarn. Most of what I have is Dazzle Aire but I also have others.All are correct for Lafontaine's flies. Jax, They no longer make these yarns. This is the reason they are so hard to find. You can get a few yards of this type of yarn on the card from a few shops but it is difficult to find skeins of it in any of the good colors. I will post a list of colors on "Things For Sale" on Saturday.Those of you who have replied to this topic will have first choice in the order you posted. Right now I am working out of town this is why I am waiting until Saturday. Catch you guys later, Jim
