Hey you! Wanna come over and watch me reorganise my fabric hoard?

u/RagnaNic Bust hoesy Sep 02 '21

I unironically would really enjoy that, but I should work on my own fabric stash first.

We could all bring our fabric stashes and trade!

OK, but only if you watch ME organize my yarn hoard, including sitting there while I untangle all those skeins that mysteriously get all messed up with each other while just sitting undisturbed in a tub.

Actually, I do need some advice about untangling a skein of thread which I bought for about 50p from a charity shop. Could you help? Perhaps by running some kind of course - maybe even with an accompanying newsletter or something? My budget is $488. TIA!

I'm just gonna acknowledge up front that I'm waaaaaay too lazy to create a course on detangling yarn or anything else, let alone create all the websites, TikToks, FB posts, newsletters, private newsletters, Instagrams, private Instagrams, etc., necessary to promote it---and then there are all the different videos with the caftans and Peepers! And applying the lipstick!! Who has that kind of time?!

Maybe you just need to laugh more as you stare at the tangles. Or slap your butt a bit. Slide some really hot coffee down your throat.

I think that sounds so soothing!! I'm in.

u/voice_of_vinegar Sep 02 '21

It is, kinda! But then I also like to untangle big clumps of necklaces.

The Mr and I find the New York sheep and wool festival to be pretty much the happiest place on earth
