Thanks so much for the tips, I usually find difficulty in choosing the right yarn for the pattern, especially when making a bag. Thanks again

When a pattern is written, does the designer include enough yardage in the listed requirements to make one or two swatches, or should we be buying extra? Thanks-

After running out of yarn a few times I learned to buy extra. That is how my yarn stash was born. Of course now it includes yarn I fall in love with and need to find a suitable pattern. Someday I will get to use it all up,one for me, one for another, and a few for a good cause.

What’s even worse to me…running out of the yarn you are using and then not being able to get more of the same color or lot! Then you have to rip out what you/ve already done and start over.
