Happy to hear you give a shout out for the Hobby Lobby anti-piling acrylic! I really enjoy working with that yarn, as well. I don't make wearables, but seeing your WIP's is inspiring. Blessings always!

[@slowcrochet]

Thank you, dear heart! Yes, even at regular price, that HL anti-pilling seems to top my list. Glad you've had great experiences with it, too! Blessings received - and sent right back to you!

[@MimiMakesKeepsakes]

I am happy you were about to get some clearance yarn, all beautiful colors!🥰

[@slowcrochet]

Thanks, sweet Marsha! I hope you're living your best life with those grands!

I WISH Hobby Lobby was nearby. I really need some cotton yarn. I just recently realized I don't have any dishcloths. Your crossover sweater looks great.

[@slowcrochet]

Thank you so much! Sometimes I wish HL weren't nearby - the temptation calls to me! 😂❤️

[@NoOneSpecial0521]

Hi, Mary! Thanks for the heads up on HL clearance. I'll call tomorrow to inquire on the status of my local store. I think the yellows will look great together on your amigurumi WIP. I can't wait to see it when you're done. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@slowcrochet]

Here's hoping you find some treasures! Thanks for your thoughts on that yellow yarn - I agree! I think it's going to be perfect! Have a beautiful week!

[@GingerCatCrochet]

The cottons are lovely. The turquoise especially caught my eye. I'm looking forward to seeing what they become. ❤

[@slowcrochet]

I saw that Pica Pau has some new, free Hobbii patterns... I'm spoiled for choice on how to use that turquoise! :-)

[@GingerCatCrochet]

@@slowcrochet just looked. Oh my word, the fox. 🦊🧡

[@slowcrochet]

I wish you could see the grin you put on my face from reading that comment! 😂😁❤

[@cocoscrochet6380]

Hi Mary 🤗 lovely yarn haul! All your WIP’s are beautiful! 🥰🧶🤩

[@slowcrochet]

Thanks, sweet friend! I appreciate you!

[@flourishfaithfiber]

You picked up some lovely yarn! Your wrap is looking good. MJ has some beautiful designs.

[@slowcrochet]

Thank you, dear friend! I didn't go to YOUR HL, so I'm curious if they've done their dye lot clearance yet! :-)

[@Lisbeth_59]

Hi Mary! I hit my nearest HL yesterday; they were just starting the markdowns. I got a lot of beautiful acrylics; she hasn’t gotten to the cotton yet. I’ll probably go again tomorrow, since I need some cotton for coasters sets. Their yarn is so soft!!!

[@slowcrochet]

Oooh, I'm so glad you got some glorious colors in acrylic! I hope you're able to get some good cottons, too! 💙💙

[@Helena-tw7pj]

To frog is part of the process😅

[@slowcrochet]

So true! It's a necessary evil. It's half the reason I go as slow as I do :-)

[@bonniemyers1163]

Our Hobby Lobby is over an hour away and they told me they don’t do yarn clearance. The only sale they do on yarn in the 30% sale every other week

[@slowcrochet]

Oh, wow! Thanks for letting me know! It makes me want to call them myself and try to figure out how that could be, especially when they need space for new yarn lines to come out. Very thought-provoking! But disappointing, too, I imagine 😕❤️

[@anntally7503]

Hi Mary! Thanks for the "heads-up" on the dye lot clearance! I was able to get to two today and found several skeins. I loved your burgundy shawl and got two to make a similar one, several skeins of soft secret for donation hats on my new addi, and some bulky effortless yarn for a cozy sweater. Cheers! 🎉

[@slowcrochet]

Ahhh, so glad you were able to find some treasures! I used the "Our Mrs. Reynolds / Saffron Shawl" pattern (based on a shawl worn by a character in an episode of Firefly) - wouldn't that be fun to have matching shawls! Thanks for letting me know what to look out for! 💓💓

[@anntally7503]

@@slowcrochet oh my gosh that would be fun! If it gets started in the midst of the Christmas prep, I'll send you a pic! 😄 I wish you and yours all the best! Your sweater is looking lovely ❤

[@sweetmomentsbyjessie]

Hi Mary! Such pretty yarn! I may have to check out Hobby Lobby 😁Your projects are looking really good! 🙂

[@slowcrochet]

Hope you're settling in nicely, Ms. Jessie! Now might be a good time to get to know the closest HL in your new town 😆💗

[@sweetmomentsbyjessie]

@@slowcrochet Thank you, Mary! ♥️ We are slowly but surely getting settled in. Yes, I think it would be a good time to check out the closet HL… and then check out the other two that are in the area too 😁
