Yesterday I was in a panic because my sister called and wanted her alpaca yarn painted. She left it here with me so, I could take care of it. That was months ago. So, I started to shop around on the internet to see if I could find some just in case it wasn't in the place I left it. Things have a way of disappearing on me when I need them around here. I was digging through my plastic bins and there it was. The sad part of this story is that Lavish Fibres is going out of business. For those of you who do not know about them...they sell pure alpaca yarns for seriously cheap. Now that they are going out of business...it means we will be paying big bucks for this amazing yarn. sigh!
In my frenzy to find the yarn I was searching for, I came across yarns I didn't even know that I had. I can make more hats with my yarns. I am also doing charity knitting as I can. There are a lot of people who need help. I find that it is very satisfying to make something for someone who desperately needs it. There are several wonderful groups on Ravelry. Should you need to find them, I have my group...Charity Knitting that has two of them on there. They list what they need on the group pages. Please feel free to check them out.
There are some truly wonderful people out there hoping others will join them in their endeavors. If you are bored with your current situation and you need something else in your life...try helping someone else, it will give you that spark you have been missing.
