These tiny yarn balls are so cute, but they’re also a cause for concern.
There was no real planning involved in this project. I went to the yarn store with only a vague idea of what I wanted to do and no idea as to how much yarn I needed. After I finished the back, I weighed it and compared it to my leftover yarn. The back used 1/3more yarn than I had left, but the neckline means that the front uses less yarn. 1/3 less? I doubt it. I’m fairly certain that I’m going to have to buy more yarn that I will use barely any of, but the irrational side of me keeps hoping that I won’t run out.
Ah, they are so cute ! It’s too bad you probably wont have enough.
I think tiny yarn balls become infinitely cuter when you know you’re going to have enough yarn.
Maybe the yarn fairies will be nice and you’ll have just enough.
I hope so!
Uh Oh.
I do love when, miraculously, what you have ends up being just enough though.
I battle with those tiny yarn balls more often than not. Hope you make it without having to buy more.
I generally wait until I run out before I get more. I am an optimist.
That’s my plan. I’m not optimistic; I just don’t want yarn that I don’t need around.
Thats the big difference between Knitting and Crochet. Crochet uses more yarn, exactly 1/3 more yarn than knitting, so when you begin a crochet project you always grab two extra balls on top of what you need in case of emergencies.

I love reading your b
I usually buy extra, but these were high yardage hanks so extra yarn would mean A LOT of extra yarn.
Boo. I hate it when this happens. Crossing my fingers that you have enough!
