this is how it goes. you're well into a crochet project and run out of yarn. when this happens i marvel, 'cause it leaves me with the perfect excuse to mix and match. buying my yarn vintage only, it is a little treat i bump into every so often. mostly people don't notice the oddity either. let's give it a try.
ofcourse it's obvious here where i ran out

OH I love the idea of the vintage yarn. I couldn't do it though. I would never find any! But hey, you are doing a great job of using what you have. I am very impressed & inspired...
ReplyDeleteYou're really doing wonders matching those odd and ends of vintage yarns. Like Mandy above, I'd never find any yarns or threads in our thrift stores.
ReplyDeleteMmmm, I love what you do with odds and ends. Artistry.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I finally got to read your mustache post It would not let me load it for a while, those are cute for halloween.
ReplyDeleteI also love that little mismatch in fact I search for that type of stuff.
and you right about the Brentleigh I think that does mean clay, thanks Heidi
mooi,mooi,mooi!
ReplyDeleteMatching is boring ... I like odds and ends
