    Hi Sian I can certainly relate to the never ending stash of fabrics and yarns I am making a list of birthdays and allocating yarn and fabrics to gifting project bags, socks etc accordingly A double winner as I will save $$ on buying gifts if I can stick to the plan and purpose make for awhile 💜🐨

    Oh boy! I had never heard of the JC Rennie. That really is a GREAT value. I signed up for their newsletter. Please let us know if you skein up and wash the cashmere blend I am really interested in that! You are very talented with all your crafting. GO girl!

    It’s good to see you again, Sian! I also need to be more careful with my yarn purchases🙃
    You are going to be very busy knitting up all that yarn. I like all your fabric choices.
    Happy New Year, Sian🎉🎉🎉

    Whenever I hear the words limited, sale or exclusive it sets off alarm bells that someone is trying to manipulate me. I don’t enjoy being manipulated so that takes care of it. Also, that Exact color might not be repeated, but there will always be colors you love!

    Sian your yarn and fabric acquisitions colours are so summery! Can’t wait to see what you make 😊

    Good luck Sian. It does get to be too much I quite agree. As I live in Scotland I think JC Rennie is very good value.

      Ooo you do? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
      Yes very good value even after postage costs to Australia 😅

    Beautiful acquisitions! I also have a goal to not buy very much yarn or fabric in 2023. Good luck!

    Oh I was literally just telling my husband I'm going no buy for yarn and fabric next year, I recently put mine all in tubs in the one spot rather than spread through the house and it was a real eye opener for sure! 😬 Good luck Sian, we can do it!!

    I am way behind in watching this but I also have some kind of ´yarn no buy´ challenge thisnyear, although I do allow myself some months to buy yarn in (on a ban), if you would be interested in following my journey, I have two episodes about it up on my channel

      Hey Delphine! I’ve checked out your videos 💕 so good to see another maker sharing their passions 💕 Hope the no buy is working for you.
