Sugar n' Cream fans...
Check your local Michaels! I found delightfully huge skeins of SnC (710 yards!) for $5 on clearance at the Michaels by my apartment. I got 3 of them, I would have gotten more but we're going on vacation to Oregon next week and I have about 4 or 5 yarn shops I want to visit there.

I bought one of those when I first started knitting and I still have it! I am so sick of the colours, but I keep plugging away. It's a never ending ball of cotton.

I bought mine for the BYOB pattern from Knitty so I don't expect mine to last toooo terribly long but only time will tell!

I wish there was a Michael's near me! Or any place that sells yarn, for that matter.

I don't need yarn, I don't need yarn, I don't need yarn.....

I have buckets of this stuff, why would I be getting the urge to actually GO there?? LOL!!! Thanks for the heads up! Man it's tempting! But I shall try to resist!

Hee! I saw it on sale on Saturday or Sunday and said NO, and then I spent a couple days thinking of nothing but huge skeins of cotton and finally had to go back to get it out of my head!

I'm not sure how it compares in yards...but, Hobby Lobby sells a one pound "spool" for $9.99 (it doesn't say how many yards it is; with my 40% off coupon that's less than $6.00 (including sales tax). If you have a H.L., check on line for their coupons. It seems like they post 40% off coupons every couple of weeks. It's my first time buying it; but, compared to other yarns I've bought, I think it's a good deal. Looks like it will make a LOT of dishrags!
