My Yarn Stash Is Out of Control... So Why Did I Buy More?

If you crochet, you probably know this feeling. You have shelves full of yarn, leftover skeins from old projects, bags of yarn everywhere… and somehow you STILL don’t have the yarn you need. In this video, I’m sharing how my yarn stash got so out of control in the first place. From clearance sales and Facebook Marketplace deals to buying extra skeins “just in case,” saving the pretty yarn for the perfect project, and keeping leftovers for years… there’s always a reason we end up with more yarn. I’m also sharing some of my wildest yarn-buying stories, including more than 200 skeins of Caron Simply Soft and the time I bought around 100 skeins of yarn for only $38. And yes… people have told me I have too much yarn. But if you crochet or knit, you already know: having a lot of yarn doesn’t mean you have the RIGHT yarn. ❓How big is your yarn stash? And do people ever tell you that you have too much? Let me know in the comments. 🎥 Crochet Commentary Playlist    • Crochet Commentary   "Can You Make Me One?"
