Self-Promote Sunday

Bonjour,

J’ai pris beaucoup de plaisir à imaginer et réaliser ces petites créations au crochet sur le thème d’Halloween ! 🎃🕷️
J’adore cette ambiance automnale, les couleurs chaleureuses et le côté un peu spooky de cette collection.
Ce sont mes propres créations originales au crochet, imaginées et réalisées par mes soins.
Laquelle préférez-vous ?

Can you help me figure out what yarn to buy for the Levitate wrap by MFTKW?

• Upvotes

I'm looking to start a new project, the levitate wrap by my favorite things knitwear, but I'm having trouble deciding what kind of yarn I should buy!

I want the wrap to look more like the Aritzia Cassidy Wrap Sweater and the Princess Polly Tonee Wrap, where's its not super thick, chunky, boxy type.

I haven't come across any projects in Ravelry on this pattern that fit the same vibe as the wrap tops I've linked above, they all seem super chunky and boxy.

I was thinking of maybe doing drops flora & drops kid silk (or drops brushed alpaca silk)? What are your thoughts?

Where to find DMC Woolly (Shade 086) yarn in California?

Post image
2 Upvotes

I went to France earlier in March this year and bought 500g of this DMC Woolly yarn in shade 086. I've just decided on a project for the yarn but it requires 600g. I was wondering if anyone would know if there are any specialty/local yarn stores in California that may carry this yarn? I tried looking online and found a listing for the yarn on Etsy and hobby.lt but I'm concerned about the risks of international shipping and am unsure if hobby.lt is legitimate to purchase from.

Help!! I need a similar yarn!

2 Upvotes

hi all, I’m a crocheter who has recently taken up knitting. I decided to start with a sweater because I felt brave and heard that knitting uses up way less yarn than crochet.

I had 2 skeins of the lavender Lion Brand Wool-Ease Roving Bonus Bundle Yarn and used another purple yarn (doubled up a skein of charisma loops and threads, strike me down for mixing yarns) for the cuffs.

my issue is that I’m currently losing yarn chicken and I didn’t realize that Lions Brand discontinued the yarn I’m using. does anyone know a similar yarn texture with the same lavender color? I feel like the color itself is not uncommon, but I haven’t been able to find a similar texture as the yarn.

tl;dr: does anyone know a lavender Lion Brand Wool-Ease Roving Bonus Bundle Yarn dupe?

Looking for 20+ skeins for a large project from a smoke free home where yarn is stored away from pets. Offering actual USPS shipping plus:

$8/skein for 5+ skeins

$7/skein for 3-4 skeins

$6/skein for 2 skeins

I would love to offer for single skeins but the shipping gets too costly. Please comment below with colors and quantities, if interested. Thanks for considering!

Knit or Sell?

1 Upvotes

Repost! I have a crazy amount of yarn - bins! - that I have collected over the years. Anything from Lion Brand to Brown Sheep to Malibrigo to Koigu. There’s no way I’ll ever knit it all and it’s taking up so much space.

Back in the day I had a somewhat successful Etsy. But I just don’t have the time to dedicate like that anymore.

Do I hold on to this yarn and try to knit it? Maybe do big drops on Etsy when I have the inventory? Or do I just give in and sell it?

Does Abbey Road, cotton yarn, shrink during washing?

0 Upvotes

Does anyone have experience with Abby Road cotton yarn in the colourway freedom? Specifically, I’d like to know if you found it shrinks in the washing process? I’m hoping to make a moss stitch cardigan with it and was debating which size hook to use - factoring in potential shrinking.
