i’ve seen some people who do a gradient alternate between a center and outside pull to make it even more seamless! like starting with black, then when the first skein ends with white you start the second skein on white, then continue that way. i love the way you used the gradient yarn too!!
Hi, Joanns employee here, for your shipment order, all orders to ship go to stores, not a warehouse or anything, and the employees working that day will pick it out and pack it up and ship it to you. Currently upper management is halving our already short hours, small stores usually only have 1 or 2 employees and a manager per shift, larger stores like mine are lucky if we can get up to 5 employees and a manager. They have also been stuffing our storerooms full of a ton of junk, to the point where if something you need says it’s in stock and in store, it likely isn’t even out on the floor, and it’s buried under 30 heavy boxes we can’t get through without damaging merchandise or hurting ourselves. There is also the problem of the Joanns app is quite literally never updated to our current stock of that moment, it also can’t account for damages that haven’t been processed, returns that haven’t been put back because we have no one to put them back, or any products that are in a customers cart. TL;DR please be patient with Joann’s shipments and pickup orders, we’re working barely livable wages and no hours with no staff in store and tons of shit in our storerooms.
Ahhhh it's so beautiful. I was going to grab the blue gradient for a Christmas gift but found some Bernat Blanket Ombre on clearance and bought that instead. I may just go get the gradient after all.
I never order from Joann's for that reason. I always order directly from the brand's site. Lion Brand, Premier, Yarnspirations, etc. Gorgeous blanket though! Love that yarn! 🖤🩶😍
I don't know what stitch you use for that blanket, but if it is double crochet, have you tried the extended double crochet stitch? it uses the same amount of yarn but creates a taller stitch. Maybe it can help you get the most out of your last skein of yarn. To do the extended double crochet stitch: yarn over, go into your stitch, pull up a loop, yarn over. You now have 4 loops on your hook. Pull through 1 loop, yarn over, pull through 2 loops, yarn over, pull through 2 loops. Now you have a double crochet that sits taller. Good luck!
We truly can’t, upper management has been sending us so much yarn that we can’t even put out because there’s no space, no one to stock because of the hour cuts, and no way to even get to it with how packed full our storerooms are.
ugh had the same happen to me and then also had an order where they said they delivered everything but left a skein out 😭 thankfully they refunded it but now it’s a different lot lmao

This all sounds like a nightmare, it's so sad what corporate has reduced the stores to. I hope you and your co-workers can get through it!

With Joanns bankruptcy they can’t keep up with their yarn supply. Ya gotta go in and do a treasure hunt lol

I need help Paige!!!! What totorial did u use cause i couldnt find any. thxx
ugh had the same happen to me and then also had an order where they said they delivered everything but left a skein out 😭 thankfully they refunded it but now it’s a different lot lmao
Paige… are you NOT A CENTER PULL GIRLY?!?!
depends 🧍🏻♀️ (with these kinds of skeins i don’t like a center pull because of the way it sits BUT a red heart super saver yarn gets a center pull)
Ok I like you, but skein is pronounced " skayn". Long a. Not long e. Please, I beg of you skayn.
Also, could disregard that as they were actually cakes that she was using, but you know, potayto/potarto right???🤷♀😉
It just how she says it, leaves her be
