Hi. Those yarn colors are beautiful. I have a tip. I leave the yarn in the plastic, poke a hole in the end and pull the yarn through as I work. Makes it easier for me especially if I’m working with more than one color and I feel like it keeps the yarn cleaner. 😊
I have gotten Big Twist, such a good price its hard to pass up. Beautiful colors. Finally took my trip to Herrschner's and got some of their yarn. You are right there is such a softness to the yarn and the color selection is so beautiful! I cant wait to work with it. So glad you got your Premier order..
Flipping heck Russ what a palaver. I had dog food sent back to the supplier and I know they haven’t tried, I think they didn’t want deliver something that heavy. Beautiful yarn xx
Finally right. I’ll bet you are relieved it finally reached you. We also have trouble with FedX in our area. It makes a person wonder is it a lack of work ethics or maybe a lack of employees?? Either way it’s the customer who suffers.
Yay Russ, I'm so glad you got your Premier order, finally! I like Big Twist and have a few colors in the pounder size. I actually broke down and ordered a Caron mystery box from JoAnn Fabrics and I was very pleased to get two zinnia colors and two hot pink one pound skeins that match perfectly. I may add a splash of yellow... bright blanket here we come! I have thought of ordering more, but I'm afraid I won't get this nice of a box, so I think I'll stick with the win! I am still waiting for the clearance one pound in teal that I ordered (only 1 was available), it seems to be taking forever to get here and the tracking has not updated. hm.... at least I haven't been charged yet. Looking forward to your Premier unboxing. Have a great day! 💙
Recap... The teal ball got cancelled. 😂Oh well, I didn't need it. And I've added purple and light terracotta to the colorful blanket! I haven't started it yet, but they are in a pile waiting. I also haven't quite pictured the layout in my brain yet. It will come! 🩵
I like the few I have in my stash. They will work up nicely when I make something with them. I’m going to try and get through my projects that are sitting and see which ones I will finish eventually and which ones I want to frog.
I'm glad you got your yarn I hope you got everything from, premier and nothing was damaged. I recently bought something from Mercari for my husband for a birthday present. The object came in a set. it was so poorly packed that one of the set broke but the other was fine. I'd rather someone pack breakables really well and charge me more shipping than have them arrive broken. The vendor offered me a discount on my next purchase, but most likely I will not purchase from them again.I missed this live sorry, hope I get to see the next one.:)
I had USPS do the same thing to me. My tracking said it was suppose to be delivered that day and I watched the mail man walk pass my house. No package, no tag and they said that I wasn't home to get it. Called them and they said the guy was new. So I gave him a pass eventhough I was kinda miffed. lol
it's frustrating I think we would have more compassion and understanding if they would be honest. I'm not saying we would be happy but we would have an understanding. it's frustrating to be lied to constantly.
Well dang, that is a nightmare of shipping for sure. I've had yarn raining down from both JoAnn's and Premier. I must have been lucky to get both orders unscathed. I've become partial to Premier yarn of late. Especially following that huge summer sale. Okay, I'm back to watching the rest of the video. I'm on the edge of my seat in anticipation (yes, I heard Tim Curry when I typed that). Hugs'n'Smooches!
oh my, Russ, you have the worst soap opera with Fedex. I am glad you finally got them, Premier and Joann's! Those Pounders are huuuuge! And the solids are awesome!
Makes me sad when big box cos have bad service. Lion Brand did me dirty a few years back. My premier order came really fast. It's at the box so I won't see it's condition until tomorrow. That was a big box O' Boggy right there! wink wink!
Such pretty colors! I’m definitely adding the wine Big Twist to my next order ❤️🧶 Which line of Herrschners is the one you said is similar to Big Twist but a bit softer? I need to give that a try 🙂
In my opinion, after watching the saga, i think the driver was just being lazy and didn't want to lift the boxes. So if you weren't watching, he was going to leave a door tag out of poor work ethic.
