New Stash!
I finally picked up a bunch of new yarn! So all my yarn has labels, and I was able to enter them all in my stash info at Ravelry. =)
Bunch of Red Heart & Lion stuff for now, but in the future I want to get into hand-spun and hand-dyed artisan wool. As for these store-brands, I love the Caron ones, as they’re more special than the run-of-the-mill Red Hearts. =)
We saw one bin of small skeins that had fur… but they were $28 per skein!!! I never expected to see a price like that LOL!
So I can’t wait to find projects for all my new lovelies. My faves are the blue/brown one (I *heart* turquoise with brown) and the fluffy jade Caron and the mossy Caron fling. And of course the nameless shiny one in the basket, which didn’t have a label.
I also picked up a pair of bamboo, size 8 needles, and a bamboo “J” crochet hook. I tried to sit down and learn crochet in an hour with videos, but it was tricker than that. =) I’ll keep at it, though.
For now I need to finish up my husband’s dice bag, and make another for a friend who requested one. And finish my stash photos for Ravelry… my camera ran out of battery power before I got through them all! =D
