Why I Love the Blogworld
Many reasons:
araucania nature cotton with a side of vinca vine
Without craftblogs I:
- never would have known about the Knit Happens super-mega-huge online shop sale, and therefore would not have purchased this yarn.
- would have believed the yardage of these hanks and ended up angry, irritated, and without enough yarn for a project
- would not have been extra careful in turning the hanks into cakes and would have ended up with a huge tangled mess.
This is the first major yarn purchase I’ve had this year, and it was actually not too bad. Enough yarn for a handful of projects for a lot less than I normally spend on yarn. The raspberry shade is for me, most likely for the boatneck sweater from Fitted Knits. The blue and purple are for little humans!
Now I just need to not slip down the “must buy all yarn and fiber in sight” hill. This may be difficult, what with MDS+W coming up (yes, I’ll be there with my mom and possibly an aunt)!
Heh–I’m glad my trials were of service to you :)
Webs is having their anniversary sale now too. ;)
stay strong – only a month and 3 days to go!!!!!! (we really do have to meet up there)
wheee! I love blogworld too! Thanks so much for the Knit Happens sale alert. I just spent the last hour going nuts checking out the really quite amazing deals they have! Yay for procrastination at work :D
oh, and I just discovered pretty much everything is sold out *sigh* I was so excited too!
