The "mother" of all yarn stashes!!

"Vintage Purls" wrote in message oups.com... Cripes! Is it just me who thinks that's an awful lot of money that's been spent on a lot of yarn that isn't doing anything useful? It really does look like a yarn shop rather than one woman's personal stash. VP That would depend on your point of view, I have a dozen or so boxes of angora (100%) that I paid $3.00 US dollars a ball for when a LYS closed several years ago. I would much rather have it to use when ever I want than paying $10-$15 for the same yarn now. Perhaps this lady found deals that were too good to pass up also. DA Da I don`t know where you live [ i mean in the climatic ear], but some places have a bad influence on yarn that just lies there ,,, unused ,,,, i do a twice a year check on my Aggeration of yarns . and mine are `mostly` , ends or leftovers of projects + those strange sacks people bring me with their leftovers !!! But i also have to admit that i have a ball or 2 that are very old ,,, ps i also weave ,,,, which luckily `eats` up quite a lot of materials,,,, mirjam |
