Oh I love everything you brought to show us! Especially the cones of wool - beautiful colours. Love all your fabric purchases too - enjoy it all! Have a happy and healthy new year 💕
Aw thank you! HNY to you too 🌸
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 💜🐨
That's a great idea! I might have to do the same 😂
Just found your videos and am excited to follow along with your making and your no-buy as I embark on my own no-buy for 2023!
Welcome aboard! You can do it too 💪🏻 😃
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🎉🎉🎉
Thank you! You too! 🥂🎆
Yes I certainly will be busy 😂
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!
You got it! No doubt I’ll mention it in a future podcast 🤗
Those JC Rennie cones are so you! Beautiful colour ways 😊
Oh thank you!
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 😅
Oh those LLY mohairs are delicious!! ❤
They are!
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 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
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!!
Love it!! It’s rather confronting isnt it 😂 Good on you! We’ve got this 💪🏻
Beautiful acquisitions! I also have a goal to not buy very much yarn or fabric in 2023. Good luck!
You can do it! 💪🏻
Me two however I just bought 2 kits haha. I have far more that I can use in a year so I will be in solidarity with you!
Love that! You 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.
