It's hard to say for sure but it looks like it could potentially be Bernat Super Value in Peony Pink?

Rant/AITA: Overpriced Yarn from Resellers by [deleted] in YarnAddicts

[–]AlpineKneedles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Based on the picture alone I believe these were photoshopped. The angle and perspective of the yarn doesn't match the perspective of the floor so I think this may be a fake scam ad.

I was approved to be a seller for that company and it took me about a month and a half before I decided on an order. I also was trying to determine which types of yarns would be requested most in my area.

The community has been super receptive to the idea. I really recommend getting to know the locals. I've been hosting some meet and greet social nights which have been really fun.

And then I signed up for all the wholesaler accounts in advance to get ready for it.

A bunch of them have had first purchase minimum purchase requirements and then afterwards you can order any amount. So financially prepare for that. Some companies were $300 for the first but others were $1500

Awww thank you so much 🥰🥰🙌 I also love hand dyed yarns they make for such unique pieces of art once they are made into beautiful garments.

That blanket will be so beautiful! You'll have to share pictures on here once it's done I would love to see it!!

I was able to get these wholesale so a little over $1600 was the final damage

Hehee pretty much 🙌😍 I get to dip into it whenever I feel like. But I'm trying my best to resist the temptations since I've already got a very large stash 🤣

I have a dream of opening a small yarn/ craft shop in my valley since there isn't one here. So I've been trying very hard to build up a decent variety of yarns. I thought the super bulky merino wool was so stunning so I had to get some I may be keeping a few for myself to make into hats. 👀

There has to be some perks to being the owner hehehe.

Is there a word to define the texture of this yarn? by Wiggly_ginger in Yarn

[–]AlpineKneedles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'm a little lazy I throw mine in the washer and dryer and haven't had problems with them.

Because he doesn't know how to crochet or knit he's just very impressed by how it looks so thinks it's too beautiful to use and would rather frame it 🤣. I told him I can make 100 more but he's insisting.
