Knitting This Week

6:30 AM

It's Wednesday again and that means it is time for the weekly yarn along.  I'm joining with Ginny and everyone to share books and yarn.  I worked on several projects this week mostly the purple sweater for C's school fundraiser.  I finished the back and started the left front.

On Monday I had a bit of time before I picked C up at her school so I stopped at the new Goodwill store.  I was generally disappointed with the store- I'm not sure if it's because it is new and not fully stocked or it is was a Monday and they had a busy weekend, but the store was not stocked and not organized at all.  I did however score some awesome yarn!



That's right!  I got four skeins of Cascade 220 for $1.99 each!  And it's a color I love!  I've already been searching for sweaters or vests to make with it!  I also got this skein of Abuelita yarn for $1.99.  I will use it to make something for C.  I'll definitely check back to see what kind of yarn they are stocking.

  1. I never find good yarn at our local Savers. I have to check other thrift stores though. What a deal! And that color is awesome. Have a great week Jen!

  2. Every once in a while I find a good yarn buy at our local Goodwill, but I've never found THAT great of a deal! Hope you find the perfect project for both varieties. :)

  7. Even if it didn't have other good stuff, it is clearly a wonderful Goodwill because it has nice yarn. Ours only has acrylic, if it has any. Great find!
