Just Annoyed

I'm making shrugs very similar to the pink ones that I made for my girls... these are to be auctioned off at next year's preschool fundraiser. In my head, these were one-skein wonders, but my memory has failed me because in reality, these definitely require two skeins.

So back to JoAnn's I went this morning, to buy another skein of each color, and in the space of three weeks since I bought the first yarn, they have changed it around so, for the same price as the 3 oz skein, you're now buying a 2.5 oz skein.

This makes me grumpy.

As it gets cooler, the prices are ramping up, is what I've found. I've been trying to find a good supplier for Lana Grossa "Cool Wool 2000" online, and have seen it go up within the last week.

Knitting is apparently a cool-weather sport.

Sigh.
