Thank you for sharing! That blu Jeans by indigo yarns is like friendship mini hanks in the vintage yarn! ❤😂
5 years ago I put an ad in the local paper “yarn needed to make caps n scarves for the homeless “. Boy do W get a response. Lots of vintage yarn. Love it.
Mama made me a cape out of the red Dazzle aire back in the day. It was a beautiful color and so dazzling. I had trouble using it myself though because it was fuzzy and hard to frog. We were excited about it back then though because it was so beautiful and sparkly. I remember it coming out. Capes were in fashion and mother made them to sell.
Just the coolest haul I’ve ever seen! Those colors take me back😂
I used to love Dazzleaire back in the 70's. I knitted a blanket for my first baby with it. She still has that blanket.
I remember buying Wintuck and Sayelle when I started crocheting. Sure brings back memories. Once in a while we get some donated to the prayer shawl ministry at church. I love seeing the old price tags. Not only the prices but the stores that sadly closed decades ago. It's a trip down memory lane.
There is just something about getting yarn packaged in a box that makes me as happy as seeing a box of donuts.😊
Whoop whoop! We missed you the last few days. I hope you’ve been spending a lot of time of the time with your family and fur babies!!😊
Crystal, you never let a gal down. When I see you have dropped new videos, I'm like on them. I had never seen the Dazzlaire ever. The 2 skiens with the green ticket are possibly Walmart or Kmart. Both companies used the small green tags years ago. You actually did great on your Vintage yarn! Love all the Vintage Colorways too, but I love varigated. Thank you for sharing. ❤🥰🙏🏻❤️
So happy to see a new video and your smiling face 🌝!
Loved watching this video, so much that I watched it twice! I remember my gran crocheting with Brunswick yarn. She probably bought it at SS Kresge or K-Mart as it later was known. So happy to see you back, Crystal, SO happy!
❤️❤️❤️
❤ Love love love Dazleaire yarn!! I have a twin sized Afghan that my Grandma made with dazzleaire yarn 48 YEARS AGO!! It's still just as soft and snugly as it was the day she gave it to my mom. Grandma also made a king size single crochet ripple Afghan using Dazzleaire yarn.
I have a hope chest full of vintage yarn. Most of it was sold before the invention of barcodes. Some of the labels say they're made from dupont dakron , acrylic and some of them have priced tags of 47 cents on them. 😊
Sending you hugs Crystal 🤗💗🦊 So glad to see your smile tonight! never sorry about how long the video is! We love spending time with you!
What a wonderful flashback for this 70 year old crochet girl!
UPC's were brought into use in the early 70's. If the band doesn't have one, more than likely the yarn was made prior to that. I made a long vest out of that Red Heart Autumn Leaves in the early 70's! Loved it!!
Wow! Grants Dept store! When I was a kid we would go there. At Christmas Santa would arrive by a helicopter hanging in a basket below waving to the crowd of children. After Grants went out Bradlees moved in.
You must be from the East coast.. I grew up in Binghamton N.Y... I remember both stores!!
I am from NJ, and yes, we had Grant's, Caldors, Bradlees and Two Guys.
It's always so much fun watching you get "vintage" yarns! For this old 62-year-old it sure is a fun "blast from the past". Thanks for sharing these with us - it's fun thinking about when I first started crocheting in the mid/late 70's!
I LOVED Dazzle-Aire. And I’ve belonged to a small group of women who knit and crochet and sew for charity for years, and we had a member who loved it. She was low on finances and long on love and kindness, so a few of us used to send her yarn. I sent. her a lot of. Dazzle-Aire. Thanks for bringing back those wonderful memories of my friend.
Isn’t it interesting to think the yarn we use today will be vintage someday. I’m just imagining the fun someone will have looking at it. This video was so much fun.
Hey I didn't need that age slap across the face! Lol I'm kidding ofc. That really is a wild thought
I see vintage yarns in my local thrift stores. I guess I should pay more attention to it. I really enjoy your yarn reviews. It helps me tremendously because by watching your videos I know which yarn is the best to use. Thank you
Excited to see some vintage yarn. Never seen it in real life
I have 4 of these vintage kits. I am old enough to remember my mother having them to crochet. Love the yarn from the 70s 80s and 90s. Vintage yarns are my favorite (and what I collect) . Simply some of the best yarns ever made.
I loved seeing all the vintage yarn. It was fun seeing what people used back in the day.
I love seeing these vintage yarns. I love that people have collected them and kept them in brand new condition so we can enjoy them now.
Reminds me of looking through catalogs when I was a kid, wishing I could buy these!
I love the vintage yarn. What an awesome time 😊
I love you. I love vintage yarn. I love Christmas yarn. And I really love vintage Christmas yarn. I watch your videos all the time, and I enjoy them so much, but this one is in a league of its own. I just can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this video, Crystal! Thank you so much for keeping me such wonderful company on this rainy Sunday evening! 🧶♥️💚🤍
Me too!
I bet your collection is AMAZING. I’m glad you decided to share again. These are so cool.
Not me, sitting here chatting back to you like we were visiting over a cuppa after supper lol. 🤭 Got some good stuff there girl.
Great to see your smile Crystal! Love seeing the vintage yarn
I love vintage yarn too. Grants stores were in NJ. I used to get my yarn at Bradlees in the late 70s and early 80s. Those stores are long gone.
W.T. Grant was the Walmart of it’s day. That store sold everything. My Gramma would go there to buy a new hat to wear to church. My brother and I would by ourselves to look at the fish and tiny turtles in the Pet Department. They had a lunch counter too. (We never ate there. We would eat lunch at home.)
WT Grant was a great store!
I'm super happy to see you
So good to see you. Always love your videos
Spectacular finds! In Norway when you acquire something from someone who is no longer around they say "they turned in their slippers" now every time I find something in the thrift store that quite clearly came from someone estate I always say "this person turned in their slippers and I am going to finish their work".
The dazzling oranges yarn is soooo pretty!!!
Gorgeous vintage yarn .. the Kitten yarn is sooo nice & the Dazzle Aire Autumn is beautiful.. I am currently knitting a baby blanket with a 'Shepherd' Crepe Vintage yarn in a lovely peach colourway 🍑☺️🧡
The price sticker on the purple Caron yarn is from a Roses dept. store, I'm pretty sure. They used to be the 5 & dime stores back in the day. When I was a kid (early 70's), the Roses in our area had a great yarn/sewing section; that my mamaw loved! But sadly, they did away with that section years ago. We still have the store. But they are smaller now, & the item quality isn't great anymore. Great memories though. And great yarn back then, too. ❤
Luv how nostalgic you already are.... but luv this vintage haul. The way you get extra excited about it is fun and relatable. 😊
Great seeing you! I’ve missed you! ❤
I love your work. I enjoy watching you so much
Because crystalyou have a heart of gold 💛 its sad that there isnt more people like you who just ask to watch the whole tutorial but now they want a cup of coffee bought or happy mail i have never seen you ask for anything except watch the whole video ,and its free i have learned so much from you i just wish you had a channell for landscaping and possibly a garden if you have one i learned alot about trees from your channel..i love it thank you
Love the Christmas Yarn
I really enjoy buying secondhand yarn from thrift stores and googling around to find any information about the yarns I got and usually a good portion of them are not made anymore or even from companies that don’t exist anymore
I remember all these colors. My grandma had them all.
So glad you are back. I missed you. ❤
Have been missing you, thank you for sharing these older yarns. Very informative.
Enjoy vintage ❤
I remember shopping at Grants in the 60’s in Richmond Va. It was considered a department store.
Both of the Dazzelaire yarns are really gorgeous!! The vintage colors are so nice! 😊😊
I remember making a blue baby blanket with Dazzleair back in 1976. The new mom was moved by the gift.
Lots of nice yarn. Love the Christmas yarn the best. That Red Heart orange was pretty too. 💜
I've always liked the DazzleAire yarn. The color choices were amazing.
Love the brown peach
Hi Crystal vintage yarn brings back memories
Yay!! You're back!!! ❤❤❤ That's some beautiful yarn right there!! Thanks for sharing your haul Crystal, it's gorgeous!! 😍😍
Hi Crystal! Missed you!
Love the vintage yarns. Takes me back to my teens when I taught myself to crochet. Thank you for the visit! 🦋
I bet Rose will keep all of your yarn and hooks her whole life and pass it all down to her children. 🥰🥰🥰
I have an afghan that I've been working on for 40 years or so. It's the Caron Dazzle in a variegated green. I got it at Schultz department store for $1.17 a skein. I had stopped working on it because I had made a mistake. I finally frogged it back to my mistake, which isn't easy with that yarn. I will finish it one day. It's a ripple and I love it.
These yarns are all beautiful but I love that dazzle autumn, why couldn’t the yarns stay so cheap like the past , love them all, I always enjoy you open yarns, I have learned so much from you ❤
99 cents for a skein in the early 1970's wasn't exactly cheap to us back then. If you were very very lucky, you could make $1.50 per hour so you had to work 2/3rds of a whole hour of your day to buy that skein of yarn. But a lot of people made less than that per hour so you could be looking at working for at least a whole hour 's worth of work for a single skein.
@@snospmoht3252 , actually I do remember those days, but I started with 2.95 per hour 🤦🏼♀️
I LOVE LOVE LOVE variegated yarn. The color changes keep me motivated. ❤❤❤
Such beautiful colors sort of muted soft I love it.
I've never heard of Dazzle Aire and I can see why you love it! Between that brushed feeling and the sparkle... mwah! Chef's kiss * !! Hugs, Crystal!
You've enabled me yet again Crystal...I'm now gonna spend hours/money on ebay over here looking up vintage yarns from the UK 😂❤
Loved the Dazzleaire. Xxx
Loved seeing all the vintage yarns, lots of great memories there.
Some of those colors are gorgeous!! They need to bring them back!!!
Hello Crystal. Wonderful to see you😊
The second dazzle would make a pretty hat
Great yarn!
Wow this brings back many memories! My stepmom passed away twenty years ago and when we cleaned out her house we found lots of yarn that would be vintage today! Thank you!
Wow - what a trip down memory lane - thanks for sharing
Our knitting/crochet group often work with donated yarn that is no longer sold. We pair it up with similar weight yarn or double it with white or black yarnd to increase thickness. The sad part is when years of poor storage caused fibers to breakdown or mold/cigarette smells. No choice but to bag and dispose such beautiful textures and colors. Our finished items go to various charities so these decisions are deemed necessary....sigh...
My favorite so far was Canadian primary color yarn that was incredibly soft but sportweight. Doubled it with solid black yarn and crochet extra long multi-colored scraves. I hope they enjoyed them ❤
That bright orange my aunt use to make ponchos for us kids that also came in a bright purple bring back memories
That takes me back to when I bought those yarns. I miss them, wish they were still made here. Very pretty yarns and I may have some in my stash still.
I’m loving the vintage variegated yarns the dazzler sire was spectacular ❤❤
My grandmother made my mom a blanket out of the Redheart Autumn Leaves I the 70s. It was and still is a beautiful blanket
I love Dazzleaire yarn too. I made so many baby items out of that years ago. You really found some beautiful yarns. I enjoy working with the old variegated yarns. because they work up so pretty. Thanks for sharing
I’ve missed you ❤️. That is one superb vintage yarn haul. That’s so funny to see that price tag from “Grants”. That was a store down the street from where I grew up. My parents had our baby pictures taken there. I think it’s so cool to see all those vintage yarns. So happy to see your smile again 😍
Hi. Crystal. Thank. You. For. ..this. ..video. .. Its. Fun. ..to. .see. ..all. ..the. .vintage. Yarn ... . ...you. Always. Make. Me. Smile.
I love looking at vintage yarn! Its amazing what our mom' and grandmother's used. Thank you for sharing with us! I love your videos! I never miss one. 🤗🌼💐😊
Love the vintage yarns.
Yea! Crystal is back! Love you!😊😊😊
I love the original Dazzleaire so many of us were so disappointed when they announced they were bringing it back and then it didn’t dazzle at all. I have one dusty pink skein left. 🙂💖🐈🐈⬛🌈
So good to see your beautiful smile.
I can remember seeing the Dazzleaire yarn at Kmart all the time back in the late 70s to early 80s . It's funny that i never bought yarn back then but loved looking at it and feeling it in the store...lol. i think i was too poor because at the time i was divorced and raising my son by myself and didn't have the luxury of extra money to buy other stuff than paying for nesecaties. The 2nd orange skein, the 'Tangerine ' color, was I think, the name brand of the yarn my mom used to knit my baby brother a baby blanket with. He was born in 1966!!...lol. (He's 10ys younger than me!) I think my favorite Dazzleair yarn back in the 70s was the one that's your favorite, too! I loved the varigated yarn! I believe that way back when Bernat was on their own, they were somewhat a higher end yarn company. Usually more expensive and wasn't sold at Kmart, if i remember right.
Awesome old yarn. So cool. Love the colors. Definitely missed you for the last couple of days. Hope you enjoyed your time winding new cakes.
I enjoy listening and learning about all yarns, new and old, as well about crochet hooks. I've got some old yarn, kits and old hooks 😊
I really enjoy vintage unboxing 🤗🧶
Grants was a 5 & dime type store.
. Grant, also known as Grants, was a chain of mass-merchandise stores in the United States that operated from 1906 to 1976. The stores were typically variety stores located in downtown areas. At its peak, Grants had 1,074 stores across the country. However, the company began to experience difficulties in the early 1970s when the economy slowed down. Grants' credit arrangements, which offered small loans with no credit checks and short repayment terms, became a liability rather than an asset. In late 1975, Grants filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and closed hundreds of stores. In early 1976, a federal judge ordered the company to close its remaining 359 stores within two months, and Grants ceased operations.
Thank you for posting this! Grant's is a wonderful part of my childhood memories.
Beautiful yarn. I love the colors of the past better, too.
Thanks for sharing the beautiful vintage yarn.
Hi Crystal, it's nice to see you again. I hope you enjoyed some summer fun family time!
Always a great time when you’re showing yarn - and this vintage makes me want to go browse eBay!!! ❤
🎉🎉🎉Crystal I loved this vintage yarn haul. I'm sure those are brands my grandmothers used. I love ya & thank you for a great yarn education. 💙🎉🎉
Hi Crystal how are you doing today iam doing fine today your yarns are very beautiful colors thank you for sharing stay safe ❤❤❤
😊 love vintage yarn
I have Reynolds’s Kitten Yarn that I purchased when a local yarn shop went out of business & I still have it, this brings back memories of going to that delightful yarn shop, Mrs. Crone was the owner!
Omg love the orange and the orange verigated. So pretty. I love it when your yarnie fingers come out to play. I have some vintage yarn I could send you if you were interested 😊
those last three are ombre versions of each other!
My dad used to work for Grants. It was a department type store. I also used Dazzelaire too. Loved it.
Looking through that vintage yarn is so interesting! I have an entire box of a lavender Brunswick yarn, along with a half-finished knitted blanket that my aunt was working on before she passed many years ago. It was given to me because I was the most proficient with crochet and knitting... but they couldn't find the pattern she was using. I'm lost with complex knitting if I don't have a pattern. I've spent many nights over the years trying to find the pattern on various databases, ebay, and etsy. Found bits and pieces that I recognized, but never the full pattern all together. One of these days I'll find it, at least I really hope so!
Love all the yarn colors!!!
