Description

The listing, Tiered mystery yarn auction has ended.

Clearing out my stash! You can see some of my yarn in the photo. I have all sorts of colors and types to get rid of: acrylic, cotton, brushed, sparkly, etc. Most are acrylic worsted weight. Most are full or almost full skeins.

Here's the special part: for every 500 credits bid, I will add another ball/skein of yarn, and include a new photo and description (in the comments) of what I'm adding. So it will only be a semi-mystery until bids are made and a new photo goes up.

And free shipping!

I'll stick with that one. It should link to the album, so everyone can just follow it when I add a new yarn description. :-)

So close! The next one's gonna be good for all you eco-geeks out there (like me), so let's get it up to 1,000!

The next skein (which was already uploaded to the photo album for all you clever types) is a Red Heart Eco-Ways acrylic, recycled blend. I no longer have the label for it, but I believe the blend is 30% recycled plastic bottles and 70% acrylic. I'm out of town right now, so I can't weight the skein until Saturday, but I will post the weight then.
