I purchased some from Crafts Etc.

Jo-Ann's costs more, but they have an exclusive on the Super-size ball of SnC yarn. Solid colors are a full 4 oz. ball, variegateds are 3 ozs. So the unit price is actually better.
 

The best source (cheapest!) I've found for SNC is www.knitting-warehouse.com. Their price is $1.38 per ball, with a flat shipping rate of $5.99. You will find SNC under the Bernat label. I've bought from them several times and never had a problem. You can also get SNC online from www.herrschners.com, and www.marymaxim.com. You can get Peaches & Creme online from www.anniesattic.com and www.cottonclouds.com. As far as I know, the only place to get P&C in person is Walmart.
 

Herrschners has a great selection of colors & has sales on it freqeuntly.

Jill, thank you for asking, and Kathy, thanks for sharing all those sources--some I didn't know about. :)
 

If you choose Herrschners, also take a look at Village Yarn Craft Cotton, 1-lb cones for $9.97 or 2 for $15. I've never heard of that brand before, but the price is appealing. I have it on my list of yarns to check out after Summer of Stash. Like you, I only have ombre loving Walmart nearby, so I'm starved for solid color cottons!
 

I don't see the super size S&C ball on joann.com - just the regular 2.5oz one. Maybe they only have it in stores?
 

I live in Australia and this yarn is just not sold here. I have tried all of the sites mentioned and shipping internationally is not high on their priority list. One even required a minimum purchase of $50 US.
 

Not Boone, NC by chance? If so, it is nice to know of another NC knitter. I am fortunate to find local supplies of suitable yarn, but thankful for this post to get other yarns to try in the future.
