Can we get a tour of your aunt’s yarn room? 😂 I want to admire the beautiful yarn even if it’s just through the screen ❤
Haha she would NEVER allow that- it’s a mess! Plus she lives 7 hours away, so I only get to see her about once a year 😢
@@Tashiathome we can all be honest, all of our yarn stashes are a mess 😄 aww well that’s very sweet of her to gift you legit packs of yarn. I’m sure she knew you would admire the yarn just like she did when she first got it ❤️
Holy smokes, Noro yarn is some high-end stuff. Even $25 for 18 skeins was a steal. Where I live, Kureyon is usually 10€ for one 50g skein. Nice find!
Right!?
It wasn't $25, was it? That's not how I heard it
@@DawnaLovesYarnI heard 125🫢
Oh my! You Auntie blessed you! Enjoy, and let your Auntie know you love her.
Oh I for sure did!!
the chunkier yarn makes me think hats and scarves or any kind of winter gear..... pretty impressive colours... Your auntie has a great taste in yarn and colours
Agreed!
You know what they say: Whoever dies with the most yarn wins!
hahah is that what they say? haha
😂😂😂😂
I have yarn envy!!! If your Auntie wants to donate any to my stash she would be most welcome!! Lol 😂😝
OMG when you started with all those skeins of Noro my mouth dropped 😮
SAME!!!
Beautiful yarn! The "thick to thin" and different weights in the same skein is because Noro is a roving style yarn. I think Lion Brand Scarfie yarn is a roving, too, for comparison!
Thanks for the info!
I was having a fit that yarn is so beautiful. I’m so happy and this is not even my yarn wiggin out. Thank you for sharing
What a great gift from your Auntie...I know you must be in yarn heaven. All of the yarns are beautiful and love the colors. The MANO Del Uruguay is from my husband's country...Uruguay South America, it's a beautiful country with Beautiful beaches. So excited to see the yarn from there. I'm a crocheter and love making plushies. 😁Enjoy your beautiful yarn treasures and happy knitting. Thank you for sharing.❣💕
I am totally in yarn heaven!
I think there are 56 skeins of yarn. Whoa, I was so far off. Can't wait to see what you will make.
It’s a roving type of yarn it’s goes from thick to thin. It’s a very expensive yarn but easy to use.
Why on Earth am I watching a yarn haul and am really enjoying it. Thank for the enlightenment lol 😂
Hahah glad you liked it 😅
Those Noro yarns could be wound differently making them look different colors. What a find!
I’ve never worked with Noro yarn before personally but I do know that natural fiber yarns can oxidize and become brittle over time. So depending on how long your Aunti had them before gifting to you… that could be the breakage factor. So fun to watch you unbag them!! It was like shopping without the bill! 🥰🙌🏽✨😅
Glad you enjoyed it 🥰
That's a great gift! Concerning the Noro, it's a roving style yarn so not plied. Roving does naturally go from thick to thin. Even the acrylic roving like red heart unforgettable goes from thick to thin. That's one reason it breaks easily and the fact that it's wool. Once it's worked up, it's strong. You could always hold it with another yarn to provide strength. Because it was free, I wouldn't charge more than $10. But that's me.
Sewing thread also works if she doesnt want to increase the thickness in any notable way but wants sturdyness! My nana does this all the time
Your yarn goblin noises are fantastic!!!
Yarn goblin 😂😂😂 I love that so much
@@Tashiathome lol your welcome
Here in denmark noro yarn is very expensive, about 20 dollars pr skein. When you are crochet ore kniitting with the yarn you start on a skein, and if it ends witg a purple color, you shal start the next skein witg purple color, then the color Will be so beautiful, so I it ends with a color, then start with the same color. You have to arrange the skeins so they wil start and end in the rigth order.
Oh mein Gott! Ich kann gar nicht glauben, was du für ein Glück hast mit deiner Tante und deiner riesen Ausbeute. Ich würde so gerne mit dir tauschen.
Wow, that is a very amazing gift indeed. More is a high end yarn. It is a!so beautiful. You have a very generous Aunt. She knows you will use and love it.
She is the best!
Your Aunty gifted you a gold mine. You need to knot her a lovely cardigan 😂
Right!? Love her so much 🥰
Man she got such a good deal on eBay for that yarn! ❤
Right!?
There are so many beautiful colors of yarn here! Whatever you make with the yarns will be just as beautiful!!
Thank you!
My guess is 95 skeins. Just found your channel on my home page. You Tube knows I love Yarn!
Beautiful noro yarn. The great thing about them is you can mix them together. It turns out gorgeous.
Like shawls, or asymmetrical scarves, or socks
ooooo love this idea!
Score👏 Have you considered double stranding the Noro yarn with a stronger yarn to give it some strength? Personally, I would curse, cry a lot and rehome it too if I paid that much for yarn and it broke that easily. I am definitely a yarn snob LOLOL Your Aunt certainly loves you Tashi 🥰Make her something or give her that gorgeous headband?! Crafters are the most appreciate gift recipients💝
Great suggestion!
The yarn is all very beautiful!!
Hum with the big bag stuffed I'd say you got some where between 100 and 110 skeins.
You may wanna invest in a TON of moth balls and deterents for all that gorgeous yarn😂
This was tun, you Are fun!
You definitely hit the jackpot. Congrats 🎉
Thank you 😁
OMG I am so jealous of the noro
I’m glad you figured out the secret to bags of noro yarn.
Your cat’s name is Kevin? lol that’s my brother’s name 😊😊
Haha love it! I also have an uncle named Kevin, and he thinks it’s funny that I also named my cat Kevin… and that she’s a girl 😅
@@Tashiathome oh I love that! Hahaha just like up!
Did did you make your sweater? Pattern and yarn if available. Kevin cute as always 😻
I sure did! The pattern is in the works. The yarn is Lion Brand's Mandala yarn
@@Tashiathome AWESOME!
Oh, yeah! None of that acrylic crap.
Yes big difference wool vrs acrylic or polyester. I like wool but it makes me itch I got a letterman jacket and it was part wool. But don't know now how it would feel. Silk or natural is good .
I'm so jealous, those were some good colors!
They really were!
Here's something fun about the pronunciation of Kureyon: "くれよん(pronounced coo-ray-oh-n) is the Japanese pronunciation of the English “crayon;” thus, the literal name of the yarn is “crayon.”
I got this info from the Kureyon Ravelry page.
That is a fun fact! Thank you for sharing!
One skein is wonder! You could make a pair of fingerless mittens with Noro yarn
Love this idea!
You will probably inherit that yarn room. Unless she wants to adopt me! So…..if you’re reading this Auntie….😁
Hahaha I’ll fight you for it 😂
I love this challenge😂
I would literally get a little heart attack if someone would give me this amount of Noro yarn. 😮
I just gifted myself 4 balls of Noro Ito for 30 Euros EACH!!
Make something nice with it, it's a treasure
I basically did have a little heart attack 😭
Fabulous!
Noro silk garden is so nice, silk, mohair, and wool. 3 weight, nice for shawls, neckwear, hats, light jackets.
Iif you can’t tell from my multiple posts, I am addicted to Noro yarns amd was also gifted with a large quantity of the stuff.
Haha thank you for the info!!
Jackpot! 🤩
Put you stash in Ravelry.😊
What a generous auntie.
That banana silk yarn looks so interesting!! I want to know how that works up. I may go down the rabbit hole and search on you tube. I guessed 78 skeins.
They may be the same color,but are they the same dye lot? Noro yarn will have very different dye lots.
You could make some St Patrick’s day bucket hats
Oooo yes !
Lucky you congrats
67 skeins? So excited to watch.
Omg I would be doing a happy dance too lucky lady
Your sweater is gorgeous! I guessed 75, so I was short. Roving yarn is an acquired taste. I think it's all about the spinning process. I was wondering how many yards were in a skein, and then you mentioned the meters. I like to know the price by the yard, so I know if I'm overpaying. That's sad it breaks so easily. I do a strength test in the store before I buy yarn, but there's no way to know if you order it.
Excelent video! I love it! new subscriber from Argentina! You've got yarn to work for months!
So glad you’re here!
AWESOME Haul!! so the "Banana Silk Yarn" is not naturally died from the banana leaf... its actually harvested from the bark (rotted outer layer) of a banana tree and broken down into pulp to make into yarn!
the noro is a roving syle yarn where its thicker in some parts and thinner in others, also it seems the yarn is very old! it shouldnt break that easily, maybe your aunt had it for a very long time and who she bought it from probably did as well. just because something is on EBAY dosent make it a good deal, i found a furls odessy hook for $300!
Thank you for the info!
Very nice gift from your Aunt! Are the Noro and Mano yarns a bulky weight? You may have said but I didn’t catch it. Such beautiful color blends! How fun! 🧶
I don’t believe they’re bulky- I think they’re worsted weight if I had to guess
Enjoy your gift!! According to my rules of acquisition, that yarn doesn't count as stash. If you didn't take it, it would have been orphaned. We cannot have feral yarn running through the streets!!
Noro is definitely an acquired taste. I've only done one skein of Noro and it had vegetable matter in it. And it's very loosely spun.
I'd charge $30 per if I were you. That's $10 for the yarn and $20 an hour for your labor.
Hahaha this made me laugh so hard!
This whole vid is just Tashi obsessing over yarn
Put you stash in Ravelry.😊
The Noro yarn is Roving yarn. When it goes from thick to thin
Love noro so jealous
Love your sweater
Thank you! Currently working on the pattern for it 😬
The green yarn!!!.please.send it to my house!
Ngl I want an auntie like that
Right!?
I love Kevin!!!❤❤❤
Me too!
Roving style yarn dealing with natural fiber. It’s indestructible but don’t put it in washer.
It will felt and shrink.
No tell us how we can do that too!
Especially those of us to craft to give to charity.
Ae you going to share that wealth?😊
Awesome possum!!
Great video!
Thank you 🥰
Love your video
Thank you 🥰
Wow so exciting! I’ll guess 102.
If it breaks that easily maybe it's yarn rot. For how long did your aunt have those skeins hanging around? Or maybe the issue was from before and it was improperly handled before your aunt got it.
I honestly have no idea!
you could make a fall vest
Ooooo YES! Love this idea!
I'm so jealous 🥺
Cute cat
Maybe 50 skeins
Keep them away from moths. Keep them sealed and throw in cedar balls
Im not envious, not one bit.
🙃
Can your aunt adopt me......I don't mind washing windows
About 60 balls of yarn
how does it feel to live my dream 😔
Noro yarn is amazing, PLEASE don't use it on decorative pumpkins..... That yarn is so amazing for garments... If need be make a scrappy garment i.e. bolero, shrug, cardi, or top...... the fibers are so nice for making yourself look like a million bucks 😉
I agree with you. Someone recommended a vest, and I think that’s a great idea too!
Hola, me gustaría tejer un sweater como el que llevas puesto , tienes un video tutorial para aprender a hacerlo? Gracias
The pattern will be coming next month along with a video tutorial!
89 skeins is what I think
For the Noro you can make a blanket and use all the different colors by alternating. I made a crochet unending granny square blanket with mine, it was beautiful and easy to make and you stop when you run out of yarn.
You can make a sweater out of the yarn don’t worry about the breaking, it holds as a garment. That is the nature of a single spun yarn. The thick and thin quality is also not a flaw, just a style of spinning.
Oh man! I am impressed you made a blanket- I lose interest too quickly for that 😅 that’s why I only make small projects so that it holds my interest long enough to finish. I have started probably 3-5 blankets in my life and never finished a single one 😬
350 skeins I think
105 yarns
I think that there are 122 skeins of yarn.
Ya it broke because it single play and it a loose single ply.
114
it hurts seeing people live your dreams XD congrats for the yarn im not crying (jk jk)
Are u going to sell any?
Probably not. I’ll definitely be selling the stuff I make from it!
54 packages of yarn.
Wish i could get yarn but noone will even send me any 😢😢
58 skeins?? didn't cheat haha
150
واو 😍👍
75 skeins
Wow! 106!! Great haul... my thought is the Noro will be stronger when worked up..
17
I’m gonna guess 146 skeins. Might be wayyy too overestimated.
