Ooops. …
I am a bit of a lost cause – look what arrived today

I am trying to convince myself that this doesn’t really count as free gifts but I have my doubts as it still takes up space. I really must stop ticking the free gift box when on line!!!
Just got to think of something to do with it all before N throws me and my stash out π
Woolly wishes,

pretty colors! I never get any freebies– where do you get them? No US places give anything away!

They are pretty colours but all acrylic yarn. Magazine and craft sites often have freebies or competitions with crafty goodies but I think I have gone a bit overboard π

Donate it.. I hate acrylics. I have to preserve my hands- so only want to work with good wool!

πI have the same βproblemβ only with fabric. People always give me their unwanted fabric and I can always think of things to do with it… only I never seem to get it done. I actually just donated a lot because it has been in my sewing room for over a year and I still hadnβt used it π¬

and all the knit/crochet people went: Ooooooooooo! when seeing your ‘gift’! (so where DO you find a ‘click for free gift’ on line? Don’t think I’ve ever seen that!) … she asked, hoping to score more yarn (as if I need it, hahaha!)

Well if you don’t enter you don’t get anything, the only drawback I have to keep deleting emails from companies trying to sell me something π

Colorwork – those colors are crying out to be used together. A washable blanket you could donate? Hats for homeless? There are lots of places that look for washable warmies!

I think it will be a blanket for N’s new granddaughter and what’s left can go to Knit and Natter group when it is back in action π€

oooh those Sundae colours look yummy!
I’m always intriguedabout the debate amongst knitters/crocheters regarding cotton v acryllic. I personally have a huge stash of Style Craft Special DK (so acrylic) and I love it. I have used cotton occasionally, but I actually prefer to work with acrylic.

I am a bit of a tart and flit between natural and man-made fibres. The beauty of acrylics is the vibrant colour pallet and so easy on the washing front. And I wear things until they literally fall apart so it will be a long time until I need to worry about recycling and landfill β€

These were free?

Yes. Some of it was part of a prize draw. The downside is they keep sending emails trying to sell me more yarn π
