    Your excitement about the yarn is sincerely delightful. It’s why you’re a “yarn addict”. That's what makes it enjoyable to watch your yarn hauls.

    Love your excitement over yarn - same here! Thanks for comparing the value yarns! Most of what I create is for donations also, so good to know the best bang for the buck 😉
    I don’t know what is up with the Fort Worth Walmart ms though! I’ve been to 3 near me this month. I g go Ave more yarn in my stash than they do on the shelves 🙄
    If they have any MainStays it’s 1-2 of black or white.
    The yellow, orange, & blue would be a vibrant warm blank together.
    Love the beautiful Heartland yarn too!
    The blue, green, & Aran would work nicely together in a gorgeous sweater!
    Good Job You!👏🏻👏🏻

    I am glad I suggested mainstay to you in another video comment , I so happy you are happy with it ! I love Mainstay it is a budget saver if you have a way to shop at different Walmart's you can find quite a few colors , I have found all the primary colors along with aqua , teal white Black and 5 different varigate skeins colors ! I have washed in washer and dry low heat dryer ! It's so soft works up well ! Sending smiles to U & Urs hugs too " BTW thank you I surly got a laugh at the "teal" it is Blue " to me Yes it is a blue " !!! they have a true red and a true blue and purple in mainstay

    You have the whole box of crayons😁! If you remember the 96 box of Crayola crayons? Like multiples of it😁. You are So prepared and ready for any project! Plus you have the charities you make for. Nicely done😊.
    That's my overall reasoning behind my collection. I am hoping to collect all the colors and textures I want to make with, to have them on hand. I live in a small, country town and there are no yarn stores/craft stores near by. So when I'm able, I buy what I can to have a nice selection on hand. Though I'm trying not to get buried in yarn😅.
    It's lovely to see your happiness with the craft and materials to do it. Have a great weekend!

    Hi Juan! You have a new fan here!! I'm intrigued. I never saw anyone actually show us the difference between an inside pull and an outside pull. I'm fascinated. I guess that's why sometimes the yarn seems to be twisted in the wrong direction when I'm working with it! Since I always pull from the center, regardless! And also why some skeins don't seem to cooperate when being pulled from the center. As for charities that need blankets, a lot of us are making blankets for Boggy Creek. Boggy Creek is a camp in Florida for critically ill children. Each child gets to take home their handmade blanket when they leave camp. If you go over to She'z Got Yarn 2, you can get all the info. She has a video linked below of a tour of Boggy Creek and their facilities. Last year we raised about 370 blankets. This year we're hoping to double that amount and possibly reach 1,000. We have until the end of January to send them in. At this point, we have already almost reached last year's total!!! Thank you for your wonderful content and for sharing your love of yarn! ❤

    Oooooo look at you spoiling us with 2 uploads!!!!!!!!! LOVE THAT FOR US! I LOOOOVE the new landscape colorways! def my jam! So I will most def be picking that colorway up! AND I ALWAYS keep mainstay in my stash in white for my baby blankets ( i love to do them in white with a colorful border). ALSO you can look into your local NICU's at the hospitals for newborn baby blankets, local cancer treatment centers (its usually cold in there) and even nursing facilities (nursing homes) to donate lapghans for wheelchair bound residents. (I'm a nurse and donate often to these places in my city of San Antonio as well as washcloths for vets)... just some ideas for you love. I hope you have a GREAT rest of your week! BESOS!

    That Fiesta is a straight party 🎉 baby! It indeed looks like a watercolor painting 🖼️. It is definitely an ARAN weight. Too thick to be a solid 4 weight but too thin to be a Bulky 5 weight. I actually love Aran weight yarns 😍. I want to pick some up but I am on a ban with Cinnamon Stitches 😂. Love your yarns my friend 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🧶🧶🧶🧶🥰 And thank you for the excited “ God I love this SO MUCH!” upward eye roll. It is very much a Delawarean thing we do when we are excited 😊😊😊

    i love your excitement over the simple things when it comes to yarn. I've been around yarn for my entire life and working with it for 30+ years. Mainstays is a workhorse yarn when it comes to being able to work it up. I love it. I'm disappointed in the color selection also, I've mixed it with red heart and bernat premium yarn and had no problems switching back and forth.
