All of us
crocheters follow trends whether we realize it or not. We follow it because we
are continuously buying yarn throughout each season. Have you ever noticed the
store shelves are packed with specific colors during each season? And I think
we have all experienced the evasive skein of yarn in the color we need, but
cannot find at the local yarn shop. It all boils down to the color trend for
the season.
With the color
trend information available to us, maybe we can start planning ahead this
year. Planning can be painful, but this
time it will be exciting. We can make a
list of all the yarn we need and the colors we desire and plan to purchase MORE YARN when the colors are
available! Yes, I said it. We now have a
better excuse to buy MORE YARN! Your loved
ones jaws will drop when you tell them why you need to buy more yarn now verses
later. What counter argument can they give us to this logic?
