Yarn Shortage

| 2 Comments

Argh! I thought I was going to be fine with this design, and of course, I am short on the bright pink yarn. It’s called Berrylicious and is from the Vanna’s Choice Baby Yarn collection. Michael’s has about 2 colors from this group, neither of which are Berrylious. So, now what to do? It is 31 inches at its widest points, but I am thinking I need another 5 inches all around, and as you can see from the little bit of bright pink yarn I have left, that probably isn’t going to happen without buying more yarn.

Other than treating myself to the good stuff now and then from my LYS, I had told myself “no more yarn buying.” I have checked Etsy, Ebay, and Ravelry…I just need one more Berrylious skein people!

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
