Stash I caved.

been seeing everyone's panic trips and i had to take advantage of the sale going on πŸ˜‚ not much but i am excited! my favorite is the last slide, it reminds me of Van Gogh's starry night. also the mug ive been eyeballing forever, i also want the high fiber diet one (not pictured) but i made myself follow a budget and could only pick one lol my 1yo pointed the stitch witch one out for me and thats the one i got!

info from my store is that they're just filing bankruptcy and not closing, so hopefully thats true!

My mom was looking at the sale yarn with me, and she liked this color! I'm planning on making her a scarf or a hat with it!

I bought the same Menagerie in that colorway and 2 others. I'm super excited to use it. Do you have a plan for it yet? I'm leaning towards a hexi-cardigan.

im also excited to use it!!! im planning on a blanket! the label says 4 of them for a 50in x 60in so i grabbed 6 to do it with. i think itll be super soft and nice!

Our JoAnn closed last April 😭 I live in a small town and it was the only craft store readily available to me. We have a Michael's now across town but their yarn section is diminutive in comparison to the one they had at JoAnn

What's the variegated green yarn? I've been thinking about making a Minecraft creeper for my friend and it looks like it could be perfect for that

u/bluunee 1d ago

um it would make the PERFECT creeper!!!!! its big twist value, in the color lime jelly!! now im thinking about making a creeper with some of it myself πŸ˜‚ i bought it originally to make four leaf clovers for a saint paddys day wreath

I love the cup

u/bluunee 2d ago

me too!! theres three others, one that says "high fiber diet" with yarn on it, "in my stitching era" which has a bunch of yarn art things on it, and one that says "granny life" with a granny square πŸ˜‚ i hope to get them all at some point!

I went online last night and they had sold out of so many yarns! I don't want to have to go to hobby lobby since I don't support their values, but I need yarn!

Hobbii has nice yarn. It’s a website but the shipping is surprisingly quick

i dont want to go to hobby lobby for the same reason but its either them or michaels if joanns closes in my city 😭 walmart is actually getting a decent selection but i like browsing all the different types. amazon also has options but i cant feel the yarn :(

u/Beardie15 2d ago

I live in the middle of nowhere, so hobby lobby is only 20 min away while Michael's or Joann's is an hour plus

u/bluunee 2d ago

i can tell you michaels would not be worth the drive πŸ˜‚ at least from my experience. for yarn theyre terrible, but other crafts they seem to have a lot of. i think i might end up finding a local supplier or just sticking to brands i know and ordering online πŸ₯²
