Plastic Canvas Crafters Unite!
Plastic Canvas is a growing industry that adds new crafters to its ranks every day. New patterns come out and more techniques and stitch styles are introduced on regular basis. One thing does not change, the inability to get certain colors in worsted weight yarn. This is due to the fact that yarn companies cater to the Knit and Crochet crafters alone. Although Knit and Crochet crafters purchase more of one color to complete a project, Plastic Canvas crafters would purchase more colors in lesser amounts due to the selection of colors needed in their patterns.
We the undersigned Plastic Canvas crafters wish to express to the Largest Yarn companies that we would like to see more diversity in the range of colors. There is a push for "afgan colors" the blues, purples, greens and of course, the baby colors.
However there is little to no flesh tone colors (important for figures like dolls or Santas) or true tones. Most of the colors that are made are muted or mixed. There is also a lack of metallic yarns. Gold and Silver yarn would save crafters money on the braids and cording that comes in small quanities and are troublesome to work with.
These suggestions would increase profits for the yarn companies by broadening their customer base. Plastic Canvas crafters are currently limited to either the worsted weight colors available or use Plastic Canvas yarn which is not as smooth or easy to work with.
We hope, to by this petition, alert those yarn companies to the importance of addressing these concerns of Plastic Canvas crafters who are potential customers of large quanities of yarn.
