Instagram is dangerous territory…it’s a minefield of beautiful yarn and projects. And I was enabled last week. Mintrain put out a coupon for a snow day discount on their Instagram feed. Before I knew it I was in their Etsy shop and this hopped in my basket…
It’s a sport weight sock yarn in 80/20 merino nylon blend. It’s sooooo pretty and it arrived in my mailbox already!
I definitely didn’t need more sock yarn. And I’ve splurged on a t-shirt and project bags lately. But I’m not sorry. When Jellybean was tiny we didn’t have the funds nor did I have the time to do fun projects. So now that our budget has room and I have the time I’m going to do what I want/can. Because a time will come when my belt will tighten and I will be glad for a well curated stash!
Happy Knitting!!
I love your term “well curated stash”! Gives purpose to what has always been an emotional buying decision for me.
I think I am in that stage. It’s called 2 kids in college in the coming year!!! So glad to have the stash to fall back on.
I absolutely love those colors!!! I am in a belt-tightening mode right now, so seeing this is killing me!!
Oh no, what have you done!? I can’t pass up the mystery Harry Potter mini skein club. Mini skeins don’t count against Cold Sheep, do they?
Surely not 😊
Beautiful yarn. I can’t wait to see what you make of it.
Love it! It was ON SALE. Guilt free shopping! Extra value: hours of entertainment, something warm to wear when it’s done. See? Yarn is a good investment and even better when it’s discounted.
