A coworker asked me to make her a corner2corner afghan. She lives in Australia now. I told her the yarns I had found in thrift stores. which would explain the boring colors. Starting with lavender on one corner and then used white, brown, grey and navy not sure what brand, labels on yarn seem to disappear upon arrival at a thrift shop. Long story short, I run out of yarns , the shops close down, (thanks covid) and a need to order more yarn. Got frustrated with yarncanada and turned to Hershnners in USA, waiting and waiting on the order, I gave up and turned to YarnCanada. The order arrived still BEFORE the one from H.
