I am looking for pink varigated yarn, does anyone know where i can find it?
I would try Michael's craft store if you have one near youThey have a good selection of yarnAlso look at Jo-Ann Fabrics and, if you live in Ohio, Pat Catan'sWal-Mart generally carries yarn, as well, but not in abundanceThere are also specialty stores in pretty much every state so I would do a google search for yarn stores and your city or the next closest city to you.
Sounds like a 3-season modified mummy bag is what you needEfficient design that packs small - more room in the middle than a mummy bag but you still get the hood and tapered toeboxGet the one with the temp rating for coldest you expect to encounter Down is lighter and more compressible than synthetic but don't get it wetThe higher the fill power the longer it will last - more costly up front but cheaper in the long run Full length zip to stick your feet out when it gets warmDouble zipper in case one blows out on youAnd as the previous poster said, the sleeping pad is just as importantI prefer a self inflating mattress - will keep you more comfortable and warmer but it can be pricey, heavy and you need to be more careful over foam pads (closed or open).
I am almost always cold when camping and take my -7C sleeping bag even in the late spring (+10C)I just open the sleeping bag up if I am a bit hotIn general, mummy bags tend to be better for staying warm Here are the specs for the one I have (and love)Ladies bagRegular Fits up to 6ft(183cm) 1.50kg Outer shell is durable nylon-polyesterLining is 40-denier nylonFill-power duck down insulationDraft tube eliminates drafts along the zipperI am typically back country camping and this one is a bit bulky (even in a compression sack), but I always regret not bringing it as soon as I am a bit cold As far as features, weight and volume are really important if you are back packing, but not if you are car campingAs well, how waterproof/windproof you need the bag to be will depend on what you are doing and thus dictate what materials are best for shell and fillingYou might want to go into a camping store and talk to a salesperson about what type of camping you are doing and solicit recommendationsYou also might want to also consider a Thermarest mattress which will lift you off the ground and thus insulate from the cold.
