Crocheting and knitting can be fun and relaxing hobbies, but it can also be frustrating when the dye lots of your yarn don't match! This can be especially obvious when you shift from one skein to the next.

Gosh I wish I'd watched this before my last project. It was only when I was blocking it that I noticed that the different dye lot was not only a slightly different shade, but also a different thickness!!. Now I do check the dye lots really carefully, but, armed with your tips, I have more purchasing freedom, if needed. Thank you

So glad that these tips will help for future! I'm sorry you had to have a hard experience about it though! That's a bummer!

Thank you!! Not knowing this and just starting on a blanket I am planning on rotating the skeins. Will ttyl on FB.
