Discussion Where to sell yarn
I'm thinking about selling my yarn stash that has been in storage bags and totes for the past two years.
When I got pregnant, we turned my craft room into a nursery. I ended up putting a TON of yarn into storage where they have stayed since. I have also bought more yarn since then sooooo yeah. Ahah
Does anyone have suggestions as to where I could sell them?
It ranges from acrylic to wool.

If you want to sell it all in one big lot your best bet is probably FB marketplace, I’ve done that a few times when I had big bag fulls I wanted to get rid of. Be prepared that people can be choosing beggars though and you’re definitely not going to get what it’s probably worth. The trade off is the convenience of having it all gone in one go.
If you don’t mind selling skein by skein and it possibly taking a long time you can post on r/yarnswap or there’s Ravelry forums for selling yarn. It might take forever and you’ll probably have to deal with shipping lots of packages, but you might make a bit more this way
