Tracking Knit Picks Yarn Sales

Feb8

Hello, readers,

If you’ve looked around this blog before, you’ll know that I really love making long-term posts that I come back to and periodically update. This will be another one of those. I’ll be tracking the yarn sales from Knit Picks (edit: not both Knit Picks and We Crochet) for the foreseeable future to help me time my yarn purchases. Since I’ll be doing this work anyway, I figured that I may as well publish my findings to maybe help some of you, too.

Rather than tracking the yearly Big Sale in November myself, I’ll instead just link to Chem Knits’s blog, where she does a thorough job of that tricky task every year.
