What do you call…

… that big, unwieldy mess of yarn that virtually spills out of the middle of your skein?

Yarn Barf
What is yarn barf?

There. Now you know.

I promise that I’m not making this stuff up.

Mike the Leprechaun wants to wish you a very Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Since I’m away at the Pittsburgh Knit and Crochet Festival, I won’t be cooking the traditional corned beef & cabbage… so if you are, could you eat some extra for me?

Best,
Stacey

    bahahahahhaha! Yarn Barf! That’s hilarious!!!! Thanks for sharing. Now the next time a skein does this I’ll be laughing instead of crying. 😀

    Hope you have a great trip!

  3. I love Patrick! He is absolutely gorgeous. I received my parcel in the post today – thank you SO much Stacey! I will send you photos when I’ve done something from the book. The little bag is adorable! <3

  4. Cute name! I usually say that my yarn gave birth! I almost never pull the end out without some sort of mess! Lol! 🙂
