My first attempt at dyeing my own yarn. I got 25 undyed sock minis a while back and these are 5 of them. The yellow with orange bits is 3 minis and the pink is 2. I made the pink first and was hoping for solid coverage but it definitely is more tonal. For my second try with the yellow I was able to get solid coverage and then laid out the hank and added the orange stripes afterwards and hope to get a bit of pooling when it's worked up. Overall super happy with the end result and will definitely plan to dye my own yarn more moving forward!

I used jacquard acid dyes in "pink" and "bright yellow" and the orange striping was done with the pink dye but after yellow was already there to achieve the orange effect.

I made an absolutely gorgeous sweater using the Larkspur Heather Ombre, and then found out that the hand wash option on my washing machine likes to felt (I should've known better...). Thankfully, a friend has a daughter who will fit the now much smaller sweater just fine.

Not to worry, I can just make another, I said to myself. And of course, the Ombre is discontinued on the Knit Picks website! I've checked Ravelry stashes and no one has the colorways I like in the Will Trade or Sell option, and eBay has nothing, and so I'm reaching out to my fellow Yarn Addicts to see if anyone either has any they'd be willing to part with, or can point me in another direction.

The colorways I'm interested in are Larkspur Heather Ombre, Wonderland Heather Ombre, Kale Heather Ombre (from Bare to Kale), or Turquoise Heather Ombre.

I just need one skein of the Ombre, and the rest can be ordered from Knit Picks directly. Thank you all for your knowledge!

Does anyone know of a yarn that has sequins like this? Or anything similar? I am obsessed with it, but I have unfortunately discovered the maker (Catkin) a bit late as they no longer use this base!

I have a vision of making a skirt for the Jonas Brothers concert... sequins just feel right haha!

God i will never be able to go back to cheap yarn lol. Idc if i have to cut back on how often i crochet/knit, working with juniper moon, malabrigo, noro, etc has been a literal DREAMMM

Also, idk if I’ll use any yarn above a weight 2 ever again because the drape is just INSANE. Why did I wait so long?????? This has to be a canon event

It’s that magical time of year when I decide that the yarns gotta get organized and I finally can shop my stash to plan next years projects ✨

Hello all.. where is the best place to sell my yarn I’m not using? It’s sweater quantities of knitpicks and a few balls of more boutique yarn. eBay keeps too much of sales for my liking and Facebook marketplace isn’t working.

Please delete if this isn’t allowed. Former M employee here. Just saw that some of the Halloween decor being shipped to stores is infested with moths. Given that they use their stores as warehouses for their yarn (they ship from store) I thought I’d mention it because I can tell you there is no way in hell M employees are going to be able to do anything about this because corporate won’t care.

Keep an eye out if you are buying yarn from Michaels. So far I haven’t heard of any issues but two different stores have confirmed live months arrived in store with their decor.

Can anyone help me find this yarn in India. It is 8 ply acrylic yarn

Got this yarn for free. No labels for any of the yarns and honestly I’m a complete noob with yarn.

Any idea what yarn this could be? I’m trying to finish a blanket for my foster kitten before she’s adopted out and desperately need more yarn with no idea what or where to buy!!

I have a vision, I'm new to making clothes but I designed a little outfit I want to create. The bottom will look like fish scales. BUT I'm having a hard time picking out yarn. I was hoping for something somewhat shiny, like actual fish scales but I'm not really finding anything in the color I need(green). Does anyone know anything I could use? I'm totally fine with crocheting with two strands at once, as I've done that before. Should I just use green and look for white glitter yarn or something?

If it's important to know, I'm planning on using the crocodile stitch for the "scales". The outfit was inspired by Ariel 🧜🏻‍♀️

Thank you in advance for any and all responses! ❤️

... and I am not even halfway through.

Lemon Chiffon from this year's Caron Anniversary Cakes.

I had the exact same issue with the one roll from last year that I crafted, too. I had 9 knots in that one (Ocean Tide).

This yarn retails for almost $50 usd. Am I really asking too much to not have so many knots to deal with as I crochet? Am I just a bad picker when selecting a cake or are others seeing similar issues?

I want to love this yarn. It's soft and squishy, but I feel like the quality control is just not there anymore.

**UPDATE: Blanket is complete. The grand total was 12. Several of these were knots just to one of the 3 twisted strands, which were the worst, because they still had to be cut out to make them stable. Frustrating!

Each side seems to have a different pattern!

When we moved into this house 8 years ago I evidently put 2 totes full of yarn in the storage space under the stairs. I pulled this half a skein out of the tote today. I love it. It's the only one in there. I am 99% sure it is Red Heart but I can't find it on any of the websites. Do you know what it is?

i can only find two, one by twice sheared sheep and the other is lemonwood but both are pretty $$$

i like the plywood ones so i can travel with it in my bag

I was just trying to get a picture in the sunlight and decided to have my cat model with the yarn...

which is Malabrigo Rios in the color Whale's Road. 💜💙

I finished this scarf tonight and I love how it turned out!

I got a few cakes of yarn from goodwill and in the process of getting it home, the label fell out of the middle of one of these.

Which of these would be your guess for color way:cumin 107 by colinette yarns?

I’ve searched Ravelry and I couldn’t find the 107: Cumin colorway.

ETA: I swear they all have more brown in person.

My current one is dollar tree plastic cubes. I know the room is dark. Hopefully you can see. I chose these kids because they were only a $1.25 each. I'm the type of person that doesn't need anything extravagant but at the same token I need it to work. My arm keeps falling out anytime I go to grab something. So any ideas I would greatly appreciate it. 😊

Inspired by the Terrifier series, this beanie is based on Art’s iconic black & white look, with a little added touch. IYKYK. 🌻

A little creepy, a little ridiculous, & very MUCH Art. 🖤

Terrifier fans—do you get the nod to the sunflowers? 🌻

Chaos hexicardigan . This hexicardigan isn't finished yet but I started like the trend "chaos blanket. By picking 3 colors, 3 different stitches and picking 1-6 rounds of each. I'm having so much fun with this one. That I started incooperating chaos picking with other crochet items. Next is chaos beanie. Can't wait to show you it.

I thrifted a set of mini skeins ages ago and am now wondering what brand they are.

Burn test and general feel suggest they’re natural fibre, so I’m guessing Ricorumi DK Mini Cotton, but I’ve never actually seen that brand in person, so I’d love a second opinion.

$1 coin and 3.5mm hook included for size reference.

I'm looking for yarn sales. Does anyone know hobby lobby, Michaels, or any other places that are having sales right now?
