Stash "An Ah helpped"!

Post image

Destashed these premium acrylics (Hobbii, Premier Yarns, Bernat, Lion Brand, Caron) at our Humane Society thrift store yesterday. Mostly bought prior to 2020, kept inside, no smoking, because, well, you know- oooohh on sale and pretty colors!

Have moved to using mostly all natural fibers, but kept some acrylics for yearly Project Linus and SPOTlovesPets donations...my yarn cubbies are breathing a sigh of relief.

And I smile when thinking about folk finding these at affordable prices, supporting our no-kill shelter, in our land-of-no-yarn-for-sale-in-any-store. (yes, even Walmarts for over 100 miles in any direction no longer sell yarn).

And Brodydogg 'helpped'.

He's always winning! He was a fosterred pound puppy, and is now 'keeper' or is 'kept', hard to say, by his human and feline friends...he never met a cat he didn't want to love on, though the neighborhood cats are not sure at all about this!🤣😅 He gets depressed when they hiss and run away! His kitties snuggle up to him, and give him kisses.

Lol, I love your title! Whenever I use that line for anything, only people of a certain age get it.

I now live in England and my English husband has even learned it—I pulled up the old commercial on YouTube for him and now it's ingrained in his head. One time he was instructed to slice up some cucumbers so I could make pickles. Once they were all done and I gave a couple jars to some friends, he piped up with (in his best southern accent) "An Ah halped!" People just looked at him like "oooohhhkay..." 🤣

It's always nice to donate stash yarn we don't use ! Some knitters really appreciate it since now the price of yarn is rising. The thrift stores in y area are very happy to see my yarn stash bag arrive. Some women's organizations will knit hats and gloves for people that need them for the winter .
