Fiber lovers and yarn buyers, do you set a budget when you go yarn shopping? Are you a knitter or crocheter who has ever found yourself hiding yarn purchases? Or perhaps you've convinced yourself that you don't need another skein of that beautiful hand-dyed yarn since though your stash is overflowing, but you buy it anyway? If so, you're not alone! In fact, many of us in the crafting community have been known to stretch the truth a bit when it comes to just how much money we spend on our beloved hobby.
In this session of Crafty Confessions, we asked Yarn Fest 2022 attendees, "how much do you spend on yarn?" With the follow up question, "do you ever lie about how much you spend?" We think you'll identify with their answers . . . we sure did.
Your turn! What do you do when you break budget on your yarn purchases?
