    Bolero/shrug using Aunt lydia thread

    Hi all.

    am looking for a substitute for Naturally Caron spa yarn(currently discontinued) . I wonder if I
    can use Aunt Lydia. Any suggestion.
    Thanks

    The NaturallyCaron Spa yarn is for a 4mm, size G hook. According to Ravelry, "Per Yarnspirations.com: NaturallyCaron Spa patterns can be made with Caron Simply Soft Light". To my knowledge, Aunt Lydia's is a cotton thread size 10 (or Fashion size 3/3.25 mm hook, or size 20, 30, 40, etc.) and uses a steel hook 1.65 mm or smaller.
