Hi Ms Melissa. Thank you for sharing your great finds. I also like thrifting, especially the yarn . You never know what great finds you can get. I can hardly wait to see what you created with them . Hello from Colorado Springs Co USA. Big hugs 😊

hello! thanks so much for your comment. I am enjoying youtube. I have a video in progress with a bunch of these yarns. Stay tuned! I love your tote series. As a teen, I had close to 40 totes of yarn, a lot stacked in my bedroom. I am not allowing myself to hoard the yarn this time around.

Hi Melissa, I have been enjoying your videos. I love to look for yarn at thrift stores, estate sales, garage sales and church rummage sales too. I used to hate Homespun yarn until I made a scrap afghan holding one strand of acrylic yarn along with it. It made it so easy to work with. My favorite nap afghan when it gets cold. I live near Rochester NY . 👋

Thanks for the tip on the homespun! Will need to give that a try. Do you often check your thrift stores for yarn? :)

[@annacentola]

@@heyhey_melissacrochets Yes all the time! During the summer I like to stop at garage sales to check for yarn too. Are you going to the Spinrite tent sale? Someday I hope to make it there.

@@annacentola Garage sales are great! The tent sale is at my workplace, so I do try to go over when I am able. Usually not the first few days - the lineup is astronomical and I need to be at my desk.

Hello neighbor, I am in Southern Alberta and just found your channel. I thought I recognized the Value Village price tags and decided to check and see where you were from.

Hello! thanks for the comment. I am in SW Ontario. Do you enjoy thrifting yarn as well?

[@chatelainmakes9830]

@heyhey_melissacrochets yes, I don't get there that often but every time I go to Value Village, I head straight to the yarn section. I grew up near Toronto
