I splurged on the bottom kit! I am so impressed by how quickly their yarn gets to me from the UK. No more than 10 days. The site address is www.woolwarehouse.co.uk You can see the screen shot of my email larger if you click on the picture. |

Oh...I really want to go look but I don't have anything planned. Maybe I'll ask my daughter if she wants a blanket...I've been focused on baby girls things since I started crocheting in the early fall.
Thanks so so much for posting this!

So pretty! I love every one of them. I vowed to use my stash this year before doing anything new. But I am so jealous!

I CAN'T HEAR YOU! Or see you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Keep telling yourself that. But all that pretty yarn is calling to you...  I am such a sucker for pretty color coordinated yarn. Yarn is better than scrapbookimg paper because you get the pretty colors AND the squishy soft texture. |

I'm in the UK. Delivery is free over £25. This site is my bank account's nemesis!

This is so funny in a way - I live here, and shop with them, but didn't know about the sale until I read this! Off to have a look now.......!  |

I haven't used what I got from them last time so I am staying strong. LOL! I just started a new afghan. I am trying to figure out what I like and can work on at the hospital when my daughter has open heart surgery. I think I have found what I will take and I am using from my current stash.  |

Thanks....I love the square in the square pack but I made a vow to finish my 3 WIPs before buying anything new. It is hard to resist though. That is some pretty yarn and beautiful colors and a great price!

Beautiful! But, I have to use at least 1/2 of what I have before I buy any more! That ought to take me about a year.  |

Yarn is better than scrapbookimg paper because you get the pretty colors AND the squishy soft texture. Why you so mean? Shopping is in my DNA. I am genetically coded to do it. That is my excuse and I'm sticking to it! I finished a cowl last night while watching Everest (and the snow falling outside our own window), so that means I was allowed to buy some new squishy loveliness.  |

Elaine, did you follow a pattern for the cowl? If so would you link it? I made Bamboo Infinity Scarf. It is a crochet pattern - using a daisy stitch. I used Lion Brand Chenille instead of the Bamboo yarn she used. Since it uses super bulky yarn and a size N hook, it goes very fast. The first time I started it was too short to comfortably wrap twice, so I frogged and added 20 stitches and started again. It is easily made in one evening.  I'm now working on Escarpment Cowl. It is a knitting pattern. An easy Fisherman's rib on size 13 needles with Jumbo Baby Alpaca.  |

Once upon a time I had an etsy shop selling crocheted dishcloth sets. It was a blast! Then I sold a number of amigurumi. It is hard to find a product where people can make money commenserate to the time they put in. It needs to be small items like dishcloths, amigurumi and hats. I hope she is successful and has fun.  |

I didn't know there was a name like that for other crocheted items. |
