After knitting with and HATING the cheap, gross, plastic yarns sold at the local Hobby Lobby and Walmart, I have begun spending real, actual money on yarn. Now, you must understand, I never spend money on ANYTHING…EVER! I love natural fibers and gorgeous colors, but until recently, I resisted the urge, thinking it frivolous. However…
For my darling granddaughter, I made an exception, and bought “real” yarn and BOY what a difference!! It was wonderful to work with, just a total joy, and I could not believe how soft and warm and cuddly it was, for her to wear and for me to knit!
So now, it’s official. I am officially a yarn SNOB! There is no going back now! Whatever yarn costs, I have decided it is WORTH IT!! Even if I buy only one ball at that price. WHO CARES! I have something glorious and lovely to work with. I’m spending the money!
SOMEBODY HOLD ME BACK!
Check out this GORGEOUS yarn I found (EXPENSIVE!!) But I am going to buy the last skein of a couple of those glorious colors!
