It is so nice that your husband is sweetly making sure you have what makes you happy. I hope you are having a great time enjoying the yarn shops but also the one on one time with little man😊. I love your videos.
My husband used to be like yours. When we were on vacation, he would drive way out of our way for yarn, needlework and quilt stores and was a huge enabler. Unfortunately, over the last couple of years, he has developed physical disabilities, including severe vision issues and now I do everything. (He's still a sweetheart, though). I'm glad you appreciate your wonderful guy!
My husband is awesome too! He has started looking for yarn and hooks stuff on his weekly internet auctions. In fact he's picking up a couple items he won the bid on. 😁 And after he picked up my Joanns order, he ran back in to get two more balls of yarn so he can use the coupon. 🥰 We both spoil each other. ❤
My children were 1 & 3 yr.s old. I would make dinner,they would be at the table to eat. I am putting the finishing touches,food, on the table. My X HUSBAND, LOL…would inhale his food and leave the table before I even sat down to eat. Leaving me to feed the littlies . I said “ that’s it, I am no longer cooking until you stay at the table,until we are at least half way done “.
That was so nice of Mr Cinnamon. He's a great guy! You are so lucky to have found him🥰 I didn't get a chance to comment on the where are you clip at the aquarium. I think maybe Georgia🤷🏼♀️ Because I'm in Windsor, I wasn't going to Hobby Lobby plus I think I have enough yarn for a while.🤷🏼♀️ Wishing you a beautiful blessed day/night wherever you are 🙏🏻💖
I love that you’re getting to travel and getting a much needed break. Enjoy yourself and safe travels. I don’t know if I get a vote or not, but pink and gray marled would be amazing. Have fun and enjoy yourselves!
I was in my local Hobby Lobby, I’m from Corning, NY, the day the lady was marking it all down. I bought seven skeins of chain-ette reaction, four cream and three lavender, that day. I’ve since bought four spools of clearance crochet thread. Oh! And I bought a storage bin that first trip.
I went last Friday and there were no signs and so I thought it was not there, but it actually was on. I got two different yarns all of one type do not remember names, both I have plans for, I was happy It was also my Birthday. The 21rst, it would have been over 200 dollars but i spent $75 dollars. Birthday money not bill money. I am quite happy. Houston, Tx
Went to both hobby lobby's near me in one I watched the lady with a bucket taking everything that was on sale. I was told by the cashier that it took two women to clear it all out. The other hobby lobby never had anything.
No good yarn stores here except Michaels. All other yarn shops are wool shops and very expensive. No significant other - I buy my own yarn. So, watching you get yarn cheers me up.
I have never been able to get to the hobby lobby sale only one of downfalls of being in a semi truck, however THIS year they finally opened a HL in the town that we shop at when we’re home in Wisconsin……made my hubby stop, he went to the front of the store when the cart was 1/4 full. His eyes bugged out when I came to the checkout and it was 3/4 full. His blood pressure went down when I told him the total was UNDER $60. So YAY! I am so thrilled 🦋
Ĝoldfish?? You are so cute with Little Man! I didn't know what that "spinning yarn" was to be used to make. IT IS SÒ SOFT! Sò Ì used a whole skein tò crochet a pillow for my cat! She loves her head higher when she sleeps. She loved it so I made another one. Of course I wash & dry by machine. Tĥat just tightens up the weave. Mr. Cinnamon is a 💍. Keep that man happy, too.😅
I'm blessed with a Chris like yours who took me on a business trip with him to Tennessee and was able to hit the Hobby Lobby sale there. I was so tempted by the glowing yarn because I think it is so beautiful, but I just knew that when I go to make things, I rarely reach for variegated yarn and I have so much of it already in my stash, that I stuck to yarn cakes (Yarn Bee Sugarwheels) and also Yarn Bee Spinesse (I'm a lightweight yarn girl). I did get a few of the variegated velvet like yarns to make some scrunchies and/or amigurumi. I also got several of the clear pouches (the larger ones and one of the smaller ones that said Gnotions) and some bags, and I stocked up on buttons that were clearanced out. I also got a couple of the hooks, but I'm not sure that I would recommend them since I know that some of them of that style (the ones clearanced out) have broken on me in the past (hence probably why they are clearancing those out). I will just be more careful when using them to restrict them to making something with light weight yarn so that they don't break. Hugs & blessings and happy spinning!
Cleveland, Ohio sale was a couple weeks ago, but there is still a scarce pick left. I got a few things too because of finances and grieving. My mom passed a couple months ago, but because she left me a little money I did purchase some notions and some chainette yarn in purple. I plan on making a blanket to remember her by.
You can never have enough drop spindles! I’ve collected them for years. I even have one that’s about 30” long. I’m waiting for you to get better at your spinning wheel, then I’ll send you a little electric spinner.
Continue having fun on your traveling journey. Didn’t go to hobby lobby at all didn’t need anything but I really like that yarn can’t wait to see it spun up.
I have personally never gone to Hobby Lobby's yarn clearance. I live far enough away from our closest HL that I talk myself out of it. If I happened to just be in that town during the sale I would love to look it over. Your "fluff" looks like cotton candy. It'll be fun to spin up! My hubby likes to do things for me and spoils me rotten. I also do whatever I can for him. I think it works better that way! Enjoy the rest of your vacation! 💜
Love Mr Cinnamon! He is a keeper! Such a thoughtful man! Hope you continue to have a great time on your travels. Sounds like Little Man is having a good time too. Are we guessing on what state you are in now? Do we get a time zone? Love ya Jen❤
I am not allowing myself to go in a Hobby Lobby this year. I can not pass up a deal and have no need for anymore yarn. I no lie, have filled up almost 3 room with yarn! I can not crochet fast enough to make a dent in it. Enjoying your travel videos! What a great experience and memory for little man!
Its so cool that Mr. Cinnamon wants you to get yarn! But....if he keeps it up, you will need another big suitcase to put it all in to get it home, LOLOLOLOLOL. ❤
Women like us Jennifer are BLESSED. I too have an amazing husband who has also thought my children to take out garbage and Mom does groceries they bring them in from the car. Mom doesn’t open doors if they are with me. He supports my hobbies as I do his. The list is long, and I always hear…. Oh Mel your Lucky. I’m like No I prayed for a man like this for many years. 24 years and counting, and I love him dearly. You go Girl… be proud of you husband. Enjoy life, we only get one 🥰
Really pretty fluff! My Hobby Lobby in Oxnard, CA had so much fluff on markdown. I got the last 3 skeins of the thick thin from Yarn Bee-this was the last of the actual yarn besides the fluff. I was not going to participate, but I was right next door so I popped in there! Spent just under $9. Yarny life, happy wife, LOVE IT! Thankfully my husband just says, if you need it get it LOL! He points out the yarn stores or the yarn section in Walmart. He has learned to just roll with it!
Mr C is a good man , very kind of him to take you . I did score Glowing which I’m using to make berets and cowls for me and my friends . We are attending a conference in Branson in the Fall . I like to bless my friends with my craft !❤❤❤❤
Hi, Jenn! No, the washing instructions for your “fluff” don’t change if you spin the roving/fiber into yarn. The instructions are based on the content of the fiber and how it was prepared prior to manufacture. Since it says hand wash & lay flat to dry, I’m guessing that the wool content is not Superwash-treated, which means that it will most likely shrink if you wash it and agitate it in a washing machine, and certainly if you dry it in a dryer! I know you said you were going to hand wash it anyway… I just wanted to answer your question since you’re a fairly new spinner. Happy spinning with all your new “fluff”!
I didn't even get to HL!! Who wants to drive 20 miles in 100°F+ weather!?!? 🤣😂🤣 It's 106°F today. But I DO like the hand dyed & try to pick up a few....I'm sure it's sold out now, there wasn't much last time I was there a couple months ago.
My husband kept asking if I wanted to go but I said no I had enough yarn. The shock on his face was priceless. But he knows if I can get free shipping from a yarn company he will see packages on the porch. He just rolls his eyes.😂😂😂
Glad you found some clearance fluff to practice with, can't wait to see what you spin with it. I'm in middle TN and haven't seen any HL clearance at all. My closest are 45 and 60 minutes away. So maybe I missed it and so did everyone else I know here that crochets. I'm same way, I was the 50's housewife too, that all has changed LOL. Your hubby sounds just like my fiance. That's a good man and a keeper.
I went to my local H L in Burlington iowa. I don't think they had all their stuff marked down yet. The last clearance, there was a high school aged girl marking stuff down on a Saturday. She was rushing around and proficiently getting things done. I didn't want to interrupt her work, so I got what I could and came back on Monday. This time, they had some stuff marked down but I've seen other yarn hauls with more kinds of yarn clearances. I did manage to get the fluff of different colors, though! I'm going to attempt spinning on a drop spindle! I also got some crochet thread that had sequins attached. I got silver and gold. I would have loved it if it had come in white with opalescent sequins! I'm going to use them for Christmas ornaments. ...maybe in some snowflakes!
I went to Lake George NY Hobby Lobby about 3 weeks ago. Nothing was marked and the associates I felt were on the rude side. The money I set aside I did an order on we crochet to do the MJs of the hook New crochet pattern and paid for the pattern. That took my budget for Hobby Lobby. I felt good about purchasing a pattern and yarn to make a project I like. I have 2 LYS near me. This weekend I may stop at one of my favorite LYS in Shelburne VT.
I was in Texas and found 3 skeins of Glowing! I made headbands for my booth this winter!! Love your comments and am SOO happy you're spending time with Little Man!!! Have fun!
@@debbiechase7762 my granddaughters don't like hats in the winter. They wanted headbands so I make them headbands and make extras for my craft booth. Good sellers and I make sparkly ones for little girls! I don't charge a lot as it keeps me busy!!
Heard you mention that you had been told that Hobby Lobby was having their yarn sale so I went in to my local store to check it out. I made it in on the second day of their sale. They weren't done marking down the yarn. I bought a cart full to make donation blankets and hats with. I thought the prices were higher than in years past. I don't go in to buy very often because my basement is full and my guy voices complaints when I do buy even though he really likes the things I make. It's a slippery slope.
no hobby lobby sale but saving for vacation... I never drove much or pumped gas tell my husband was unable to drive , and no longer able to move as well... But feels good to do it because he needs me too......
Your trip look like loads of fun! I'm so jealous :) I'm stuck in a sweaty office. I describe myself as a spoiled brat, My Gary is my worst enabler! my two passions at the moment are yarn and orchids however I can't get them to re-flower. If anyone on here can help I will love you forever!
Mr. Cinnamon is so sweet. I was blessed here in TN that last Wed our local Hobby Lobby finally did their mark down. I got a great haul and only bought what I wanted and knew I would use for projects. I did get some of the glowing and most of the scarfie lite as I love that yarn and also some of the Alpaca as that is a great yarn for hats and scarves.
Ken and I ran into Michael’s and I saw some clearance cinnamon swirls. I got the six cherry color. He said aren’t you going to get those and pointed to some other cinnamon swirls. He started picking them up. I laughed and told him it had too much yellow. He put them all back and said are you sure. It’s awesome having a hubs that supports what makes you happy. Take care Jennifer.
Ohio here I got about four skeins of blanket yarn that I wanted. Otherwise they were cleared out. Ha ha no problem. I still got tons of yarn from a year ago when they did this in March.
Jen❤ I, like you, swore I was not going to partake in the HL clearance bc I have large stash as well. However, my "nosiness" got the best of me, and I scored Spinesse by yarnbee. I love that yarn...using it to make the vicountess top! I went to my local one and one 30 minutes from me. I have a bestie yarnie friend I'm going to share my haul with bc her store in another state was sold out and she loves spinesse as well. Why do yarn companies always discontinue the yarns we love???? My hubby just rolls his eyes when I buy yarn... he knows I love yarn lol. I tell him how much I saved, and he is better....and yes, bills are always paid first!
I live outside Waterloo, IA and my store is in Waterloo. Don't get me wrong about my guy limiting my yarn buying. He doesn't like me buying it all the time. He tells me that it is my money so he has no say on how I spend it. We are both retired so making stuff from yarn not only keeps my attention span but the repetition of the patterns I use helps with memory and mind sharpness.
I have never gotten to my Hobby Lobby during their clearance sale. My HL is small & I have noticed over the years that the yarn dept keeps getting smaller & smaller. Also, their fabric & notions dept keeps getting smaller & smaller, too. It is very annoying! But, the decor stock keeps getting bigger & bigger. Pretty soon the whole store will just be stupid home decor 😠 Unfortunately, HL is the only craft store nearby. I wish we had a Joanns or even a Michaels, but no such luck :( I am enjoying your family trip videos alot. Safe travels ❤
No hobby lobby clearance for me. I’ve only been once and bought too much. Mr. Cinnamon sounds so wonderful. You definitely got one of the good ones. It’s also nice to hear that you are both still happy after 20 some years. Hugs
Payday is Friday and we're going grocery shopping. My husband was like 'hey while we're out at Sam's, do we need to stop at Joann's, Hobby Lobby or Michael's for yarn, any good sales??' I laughed said yup, I need more black for these projects. He was like ok cool. We take care of each other. He knows I can go change a tire, the oil in the trucks, etc but he would NEVER ask me to or expect me to. I went to 1 Hobby Lobby and they were wiped clean. I didn't bother going to the other, but I might attempt it Friday while we're in town.
Good afternoon Jennifer I cannot wait to see what Hobby Lobby clearance got you?😮 what colorways did you pick up in the color theories? Showstopper fluff nice!
My local store always does the sale late as well. I also bought fluff (the rainbow riot, an ivory, and the same gray you have) my haul was less than 20. I haven't used previous years yarn so also making intentional purchases because I don't want to stash just to be stashing
I'm not going to Hobby Lobby this year. I still have last years in my stash. It's no bargain if I don't use it. Mine is always weeks after everyone else too.
No HL buys.... but hug that man for his gift of smiles.❤❤❤❤
I hope you are having fun on your vacation😘❤
Mr Cinnamon is a good husband to support you and your yarn collection. 🧶💜🙏🏻
It is so nice that your husband is sweetly making sure you have what makes you happy. I hope you are having a great time enjoying the yarn shops but also the one on one time with little man😊. I love your videos.
Mr. Cinnamon is a sweetheart! ❤️🧶
My husband is like Mr Cinnamon! Such a blessing 😊😊😊
Wow Hoppy Loppy that was a wonderful sale.thank you for sharing God Bless everyone ❤❤
My husband used to be like yours. When we were on vacation, he would drive way out of our way for yarn, needlework and quilt stores and was a huge enabler. Unfortunately, over the last couple of years, he has developed physical disabilities, including severe vision issues and now I do everything. (He's still a sweetheart, though). I'm glad you appreciate your wonderful guy!
Did not know that HL had fluff. 😮
Good morning Jenn, I was just going to say that pink and grey would be stunning together. ❤🎉
Hi Jenn, when you spin the new fluff from Hobby Lobby you should name the colorway Mr. Cinnamon. 🥰
I’m also very fortunate with equal partnership❤️
If they could make clones of Mr Cinnamon you could make a fortune! He is an amazing person. Love you all ❤
Hes one of a kind
“Some maintenance required “😂 that’s me 🎉❤
My husband is awesome too! He has started looking for yarn and hooks stuff on his weekly internet auctions. In fact he's picking up a couple items he won the bid on. 😁 And after he picked up my Joanns order, he ran back in to get two more balls of yarn so he can use the coupon. 🥰
We both spoil each other. ❤
Its pretty the blush 🩷 all three roving are very pretty
Happy Tuesday Jen, I hope you are having a wonderful day today ❤❤
That's crazy. I'm working with glowing.
And the color is Evening glowing
My children were 1 & 3 yr.s old. I would make dinner,they would be at the table to eat. I am putting the finishing touches,food, on the table. My X HUSBAND, LOL…would inhale his food and leave the table before I even sat down to eat. Leaving me to feed the littlies .
I said “ that’s it, I am no longer cooking until you stay at the table,until we are at least half way done “.
That was so nice of Mr Cinnamon. He's a great guy! You are so lucky to have found him🥰
I didn't get a chance to comment on the where are you clip at the aquarium. I think maybe Georgia🤷🏼♀️ Because I'm in Windsor, I wasn't going to Hobby Lobby plus I think I have enough yarn for a while.🤷🏼♀️
Wishing you a beautiful blessed day/night wherever you are 🙏🏻💖
Mr Cinnamon is so sweet 🥹 I really like your t shirt
Amen to that 💕 you are so fortunate to enjoy true companionship, I love it. Btw, nice yarn. 🙂 💜💜
Ok I’m gonna check out the Hobby Lobby situation in Idaho.
Nampa?
I love that you’re getting to travel and getting a much needed break. Enjoy yourself and safe travels. I don’t know if I get a vote or not, but pink and gray marled would be amazing. Have fun and enjoy yourselves!
My husband after 30 yrs still opens my car door, gets the food, and all too!
I was in my local Hobby Lobby, I’m from Corning, NY, the day the lady was marking it all down. I bought seven skeins of chain-ette reaction, four cream and three lavender, that day. I’ve since bought four spools of clearance crochet thread. Oh! And I bought a storage bin that first trip.
I went last Friday and there were no signs and so I thought it was not there, but it actually was on. I got two different yarns all of one type do not remember names, both I have plans for, I was happy It was also my Birthday. The 21rst, it would have been over 200 dollars but i spent $75 dollars. Birthday money not bill money. I am quite happy. Houston, Tx
Went to both hobby lobby's near me in one I watched the lady with a bucket taking everything that was on sale. I was told by the cashier that it took two women to clear it all out. The other hobby lobby never had anything.
No good yarn stores here except Michaels. All other yarn shops are wool shops and very expensive. No significant other - I buy my own yarn. So, watching you get yarn cheers me up.
Safe travels! Love your fluff!
I have never been able to get to the hobby lobby sale only one of downfalls of being in a semi truck, however THIS year they finally opened a HL in the town that we shop at when we’re home in Wisconsin……made my hubby stop, he went to the front of the store when the cart was 1/4 full. His eyes bugged out when I came to the checkout and it was 3/4 full. His blood pressure went down when I told him the total was UNDER $60. So YAY! I am so thrilled 🦋
Ĝoldfish?? You are so cute with Little Man!

I'm blessed with a Chris like yours who took me on a business trip with him to Tennessee and was able to hit the Hobby Lobby sale there. I was so tempted by the glowing yarn because I think it is so beautiful, but I just knew that when I go to make things, I rarely reach for variegated yarn and I have so much of it already in my stash, that I stuck to yarn cakes (Yarn Bee Sugarwheels) and also Yarn Bee Spinesse (I'm a lightweight yarn girl). I did get a few of the variegated velvet like yarns to make some scrunchies and/or amigurumi. I also got several of the clear pouches (the larger ones and one of the smaller ones that said Gnotions) and some bags, and I stocked up on buttons that were clearanced out. I also got a couple of the hooks, but I'm not sure that I would recommend them since I know that some of them of that style (the ones clearanced out) have broken on me in the past (hence probably why they are clearancing those out). I will just be more careful when using them to restrict them to making something with light weight yarn so that they don't break. Hugs & blessings and happy spinning!
I think you and husband have a good relationship ❤️
Cleveland, Ohio sale was a couple weeks ago, but there is still a scarce pick left. I got a few things too because of finances and grieving. My mom passed a couple months ago, but because she left me a little money I did purchase some notions and some chainette yarn in purple. I plan on making a blanket to remember her by.
Just for business reasons, it sounds like you should do a Hobby Lobby haul of some sort and a video even if you give the yarn away! Enjoy your trip!
You can never have enough drop spindles! I’ve collected them for years. I even have one that’s about 30” long. I’m waiting for you to get better at your spinning wheel, then I’ll send you a little electric spinner.
I have a long way to go.
Continue having fun on your traveling journey. Didn’t go to hobby lobby at all didn’t need anything but I really like that yarn can’t wait to see it spun up.

Those neutral fluffs are tonal and beautiful.
I was tickled pink to hear you were in Huntsville, Alabama. I live in Scottsboro, Alabama which is approximately 45 minutes from Huntsville! 🎉
Jenn ur hubby is a gem! Enjoy your new fluff. Besafe on your travels. I haven’t been to a Hobby Libby in a while.
Love Mr Cinnamon! He is a keeper! Such a thoughtful man! Hope you continue to have a great time on your travels. Sounds like Little Man is having a good time too. Are we guessing on what state you are in now? Do we get a time zone? Love ya Jen❤
Have a fun and safe trip.😊
Thank you! 😃
My late husband did the cooking. I did the yard work and the mowing.
I hope you were able to buy the drop spindle. Safe travels.
I'm 71 and have never pumped gas! Lol
I’ve done two Hobby Lobby runs in 2 weeks, I’m in Little Rock, AR. I got yarn I haven’t ever worked with, super excited!
I should have drove to LR. The Benton store had nothing left when I went in there last week.
I am not allowing myself to go in a Hobby Lobby this year. I can not pass up a deal and have no need for anymore yarn. I no lie, have filled up almost 3 room with yarn! I can not crochet fast enough to make a dent in it. Enjoying your travel videos! What a great experience and memory for little man!

Good morning, Jenn!
I live in Huntsville! Welcome! Our clearance was about 3 weeks ago. I got some of the glowing yarn. They did not have very much.
I hope you are having fun on your vacation
I am

I didn't even get to HL!! Who wants to drive 20 miles in 100°F+ weather!?!?
🤣😂🤣
It's 106°F today.
But I DO like the hand dyed & try to pick up a few....I'm sure it's sold out now, there wasn't much last time I was there a couple months ago.
Yes got blanket yarn for 2.14 in Sacramento CA
My husband kept asking if I wanted to go but I said no I had enough yarn. The shock on his face was priceless. But he knows if I can get free shipping from a yarn company he will see packages on the porch. He just rolls his eyes.😂😂😂

Your purple top is spectacular on you with the matching hat.
I went to my local H L in Burlington iowa. I don't think they had all their stuff marked down yet. The last clearance, there was a high school aged girl marking stuff down on a Saturday.

My local stores are the same way, they mark down weeks after everyone elses
I am shopping today at hobby lobby in MN
I went to Lake George NY Hobby Lobby about 3 weeks ago. Nothing was marked and the associates I felt were on the rude side.

What headband patterns?
@@debbiechase7762 my granddaughters don't like hats in the winter. They wanted headbands so I make them headbands and make extras for my craft booth. Good sellers and I make sparkly ones for little girls! I don't charge a lot as it keeps me busy!!
Ok. Now I’m going to have to check out what Hobby Lobby is doing in Idaho. There’re 2 stores in Boise/Meridian area.
Heard you mention that you had been told that Hobby Lobby was having their yarn sale so I went in to my local store to check it out. I made it in on the second day of their sale. They weren't done marking down the yarn. I bought a cart full to make donation blankets and hats with. I thought the prices were higher than in years past. I don't go in to buy very often because my basement is full and my guy voices complaints when I do buy even though he really likes the things I make. It's a slippery slope.
My hubs brings in the groceries. We get home and he always tells me no go on in I’ll bring them in the house you can put them away. We are lucky.
Same❤ I consider myself lucky! He does so much to make me happy.
no hobby lobby sale but saving for vacation... I never drove much or pumped gas tell my husband was unable to drive , and no longer able to move as well... But feels good to do it because he needs me too......
Your trip look like loads of fun! I'm so jealous :) I'm stuck in a sweaty office. I describe myself as a spoiled brat, My Gary is my worst enabler! my two passions at the moment are yarn and orchids however I can't get them to re-flower. If anyone on here can help I will love you forever!
You got yourself a good man ❤️ I definitely don’t know how to pick them so I’ve just stayed single for a while lol
You hit the jackpot when you got Mr. Cinnamon !!!!!
Mr. Cinnamon is so sweet. I was blessed here in TN that last Wed our local Hobby Lobby finally did their mark down. I got a great haul and only bought what I wanted and knew I would use for projects. I did get some of the glowing and most of the scarfie lite as I love that yarn and also some of the Alpaca as that is a great yarn for hats and scarves.
Ken and I ran into Michael’s and I saw some clearance cinnamon swirls. I got the six cherry color. He said aren’t you going to get those and pointed to some other cinnamon swirls. He started picking them up. I laughed and told him it had too much yellow. He put them all back and said are you sure. It’s awesome having a hubs that supports what makes you happy. Take care Jennifer.
Ohio here I got about four skeins of blanket yarn that I wanted. Otherwise they were cleared out. Ha ha no problem. I still got tons of yarn from a year ago when they did this in March.
I haven't seen a clearance, but i was out of town for 10 days. So, i probably missed it! 🤷♀️
Jen❤ I, like you, swore I was not going to partake in the HL clearance bc I have large stash as well. However, my "nosiness" got the best of me, and I scored Spinesse by yarnbee. I love that yarn...using it to make the vicountess top! I went to my local one and one 30 minutes from me. I have a bestie yarnie friend I'm going to share my haul with bc her store in another state was sold out and she loves spinesse as well. Why do yarn companies always discontinue the yarns we love???? My hubby just rolls his eyes when I buy yarn... he knows I love yarn lol. I tell him how much I saved, and he is better....and yes, bills are always paid first!
I'm on East Coast our hobby store did not give us clearance. It sucks 😮
If you wonder on washing after spinning I would make a small swatch and try it
I live outside Waterloo, IA and my store is in Waterloo. Don't get me wrong about my guy limiting my yarn buying. He doesn't like me buying it all the time. He tells me that it is my money so he has no say on how I spend it. We are both retired so making stuff from yarn not only keeps my attention span but the repetition of the patterns I use helps with memory and mind sharpness.
I have never gotten to my Hobby Lobby during their clearance sale. My HL is small & I have noticed over the years that the yarn dept keeps getting smaller & smaller. Also, their fabric & notions dept keeps getting smaller & smaller, too.
It is very annoying!
But, the decor stock keeps getting bigger & bigger. Pretty soon the whole store will just be stupid home decor 😠
Unfortunately, HL is the only craft store nearby. I wish we had a Joanns or even a Michaels, but no such luck :(
I am enjoying your family trip videos alot.
Safe travels ❤
Awe! Mr. Cinnamon, you are sooo sweet! Hope the rest of your travels is as fun as it has been! Safe travels!
No hobby lobby clearance for me. I’ve only been once and bought too much. Mr. Cinnamon sounds so wonderful. You definitely got one of the good ones. It’s also nice to hear that you are both still happy after 20 some years. Hugs
Payday is Friday and we're going grocery shopping. My husband was like 'hey while we're out at Sam's, do we need to stop at Joann's, Hobby Lobby or Michael's for yarn, any good sales??' I laughed said yup, I need more black for these projects. He was like ok cool. We take care of each other. He knows I can go change a tire, the oil in the trucks, etc but he would NEVER ask me to or expect me to. I went to 1 Hobby Lobby and they were wiped clean. I didn't bother going to the other, but I might attempt it Friday while we're in town.
Good Morning 🤗 That was a good deal on the fluff. Glad you’re having a good time in Alabama.
Good afternoon Jennifer I cannot wait to see what Hobby Lobby clearance got you?😮 what colorways did you pick up in the color theories? Showstopper fluff nice!
My local store always does the sale late as well. I also bought fluff (the rainbow riot, an ivory, and the same gray you have) my haul was less than 20. I haven't used previous years yarn so also making intentional purchases because I don't want to stash just to be stashing
I have looked for the last 3 years, I have never experienced it
But you need get premier's new gradient!
Its at home waiting for me
I'm not going to Hobby Lobby this year. I still have last years in my stash. It's no bargain if I don't use it. Mine is always weeks after everyone else too.
Wow, that is a lot of views! Congrats on that! Also - when I get home, I'm going to play you saying that last part while I cook dinner. 😉
Mr. Cinnamon is an angle! You are blessed my friend! The fluff you got is beautiful, and looks so fluffy. Have a great day.
