How good is that yarn stash!!!
When we visited the USA last year I was taken round some amazing yard sales by a very experienced buyer, I never got to see yarn but got some good crochet throws.
Just wish I had bought more yarn whilst I was there......it is such good stuff. Enjoy it looks a treat Heather xx
Great haul! You did good Grandma and you will need to go to Michaels anyway to get some coordinating yarn for your projects lol!
Wow, these are so much yarn! You were so lucky!!
Oh my goodness! You did find the Mother Lode of yarn! Don't you just love it when this happens from a yard sale? This is like my box of fabric I found at a yard sale. Yes, who cares how much we stash away. Its only getting more and more expensive.
Also, thanks for sharing your covered bridges memory with me on my blog.
