    Default variegated chenille

    Was wanting to get some of this material in quantities larger than the standard 9-15 ft card but less than 72 yards. I prefer darker colors (black,dark olive,brown).

    My only option may be to purchase 4-5 of the 9-15 ft carded chenille. Is there a source that you know of that sells the variegated chenilles in a larger quantity (20-25 yards)?

    Thank you

    Greg

    ....... I've discovered girdle bugs late ...... used some last weekend and want to tie up a bunch more.

    Has his shipping and communication gotten any better??? I'd love to order from him again but not going to wait weeks to get stuff that apparently is in stock.

    Jann's is $2.59 for 15' = 17 cents/ft
    Grandpa Bob's is $.65 for 3 yards (9') = 7 cents/ft

    Those Girdle Bugs are great for trout AND bluegills!
