      Krista only orders for herself because she has nowhere to buy any in Kenya so buys a huge order and uses a forward shipper to get yarn at a reasonable price at customs. She always uses Ice and makes some beautiful things.
      I'm sure you will make something gorgeous
      Love Lynne ❤️ 😊

    Christa orders yarn once a year. She saves all year and places a hughe order. Those videos are great fun to watch. You get good ideas what to order. Danas Wanderlust Crochet bought from Ice Yarn. She calculated price per yard and compared it to similar yarn ie I Love This Yarn. Broken down per yard including shipping Ice was higher by the slimmer margin. Oh yes Christa is not a distributor of Ice Yarn

    Omg I love Christa, she is the sweetest, has awesome videos and is not a distributor. Maybe give her channel another chance. Christa can only order yarn once a year from ICE yarns because she lives in Kenya and it’s hard to get yarn there. I personally love her rainbow organization of her yarn and belongings.
    I’m glad you order yarn. I get to live through you lol
    I’ve always wanted to order ice yarns just can’t afford just yet. Maybe one day. And yes ICE yarns is located in Turkey.
    Those are pretty colors you ordered. Especially the glitz one. ❤
    Great choices.
    I love your honesty and review you’ve done of ICE yarns.
    your sense of humor is hilarious. 😂
    Thank you for your videos love I enjoy them very much.
    You, Christa, and Jayda are awesome. ❤ I follow y’all’s channels. 🥰
    Can’t wait to see what you make out of ICE yarns 💕
    (I’m catching up on your videos. Can’t wait to see what other awesome content you have ☺️)

    Your symptoms you mentioned are also what I experience having ptsd. Mine is from the Navy, but it can occur with miscarriages and having a child with disabilities or diagnoses like adhd. Being an older mom my symptoms got worse after having a baby at 35. The stress is real & impacts my ability to feel overwhelmed easily.

    Christa from the Secret Yarnery lives in Kenya and doesn't have access to yarns locally very much. So ordering yarn about once a year in bulk (for better shipping prices) makes sense for her. I love the yarns you got. I have not personally ordered or worked with Ice Yarns. I will love to see what you think. 😽

    Hi there! Ice Yarns packs like this tobest protect the yarn while shipping. Very tight so it won´t pop open when misshandled, double layer of plastic so that the yarn is safer even when one of the layers get cut accidently and such. Packages are not carefully handled on the way, so they try to limit the possibility of damaged yarn.
    I love the yarn you picked! So pretty! ♥

    My dyslexic brain here has fits from their site.
    Iyou look things up by the yarn tags, it's easier. Also to know the real weight note fiber type, yardage and grams. Then you get a better idea of what you are getting. Also bag o day tends to show many of them to get a realistic idea of what they are really like. Grabby, roving, soft...
    You would love the galaxy cakes!

    I love Ice yarns. I find it easiest to search for what I want by category so it seems less overwhelming. I like the fact that they allow you to select Canadian funds when calculating your price so I don’t have to do the calculation myself and think a price is better than it actually is for me. The packaging also makes it easier to store in my shelves.

    • @mcjanine551

    @dawnrearden2374 Рік тому

    I’ve ordered from Ice Yarns quite a lot. Even taking the shipping costs into consideration, it still works out cheaper, per ball/skein than it does buying in the UK. I live in Manchester, UK and was in the city centre yesterday so popped into a store that sells branded yarn. I came out without any as it was so much more expensive. The only onus is being able to actually squish the yarn, and feel what it is like. I’ve got a couple of yarns from Ice Yarns that I don’t like. I bought some micro fibre thinking it would make great bathroom mats. When I washed it, it was so heavy and held onto the water. It wouldn’t spin in my washing machine. I’ve bought magic light and magic glitz which are lovely. I just need to find a sweater pattern that uses that same weight yarn and that I can get the correct tension with. I’m not good with maths and find it difficult if a yarn is slightly different in weight to the stated pattern.

  • @katharinesacca4729

    I love ice yarns and I love ice yarn haul videos cuz their website is scary. The number on the bags I see in videos takes you directly to that yarn, so I actually start my shopping on someone's youtube channel. I also like to economize and I only order from ice maybe once a year, but huge orders because as the volume of your purchase increases, the relative cost of shipping goes down. Usually I aim at $3 / ball shipped, but I need to be able to buy in more bulk than I usually do to get that price. I enjoyed your review. It was fun.

Christa isn't a distributor or an affiliate for Ice Yarns. It's just the cheapest, best yarn she can buy in Kenya. Love your new haircut & colour.... suits you, Jennifer! 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨

  • @SigalAlon
    @SigalAlon Рік тому

    In my opinion, and I was actually diagnosed as ADHD, Ice Yarns' website is one of the more organized and easy to maneuver. It is totally categorized, in more ways than one! You just need to learn how it works and where everything is.
    If you ever need help with that, I'll be happy to. I've been buying from them for several years, almost exclusively. I am very familiar with their site and yarns.
    They pack it tight to cut on shipping costs, because international shipping is calculated by a weight/volume ratio - the higher of the two - otherwise you would have paid way more for the shipping.
    However, to the USA, if you make a larger order, they'll ship it in a box and at some point the cost of shipping per 3.5oz, actually decreases.

    If it would help, Christa puts links in her description boxes of most of her videos to products she enjoys using.

You can paint the bookshelves white to brighten up the space as well, or just paint the fronts and contact paper on back. So excited your redoing your space. It will make it more inviting to you and more exciting to go to work.

Haven’t tried this one before, very tempted 😊 Same for us in Ireland in terms of shipping and we also get charged Customs fees 🙁 Works out usually around €3-€4.50 per skein which is still a good deal for variegated/self striping 😊 Have a great day and enjoy playing with the new yarns 💛
