Yarn Haul

[stitchgirl]

I've gone a little crazy in the past week buying yarn. Last Thursday I bought a pile of Lite Lopi from knit2purl2 (they're going out of business - 50% off most of the yarn). Anyway, the package came on Saturday and the colors were just fabulous that I got back on the computer and ordered some more (I think I cleaned her out of Lite Lopi and so then I ordered some Lopi Worsted Weight). It arrived yesterday and again the colors are really, really pretty. I love Lopi for felting. Now today I received a box from Caron - my first order of mill ends. I bought 6 lbs and everything I got is really nice and I love the colors. I feel lucky. I believe it's all varied weights of Simply Soft. Baby in pink and white, then there's a pretty tan color and a beautiful light gray. Also a gorgeous coral color and a very nice dark green. I'm really excited. I feel like this is alot of yarn, but even with all this my stash still fits in 3 totes and a box.

I'm not sure about the "you can't be too rich or too thin" thing, but I know it's true that you can never have enough yarn!

I actually went to JoAnn's yesterday for eyes and bought only eyes! I resisted the yarn but it was really hard!

KellyA: the mill ends came from www.caron.com and the lopi yarns came from www.knit2purl2.com (clearanced priced). I don't know what's left there, I haven't checked back in several days, but there were some really good prices.
