Well, I did not think anyone would be interested but, here is the skinny on the el cheapo yarn in my scarf: No Bo (No Boundaries) yarn, 59% Nylon, 41% Acrylic, $2 per skein (not $1.99, but $2 — it may have been on clearance), 50 gm, 95 meters. The color shown is #353. Not a natural fibre within 10 miles!!!
I also finished my daughter’s fingerless gloves with the mini-fingers. Thank goodness! I was about ready to cut off one or two of her digits just to get the thing done. Some projects lose their appeal real fast and this was one of them.Â
Next I hope to finish up Anya. I have been plugging away on it and will post a picture soon showing what I went through to get a nice looking SSK on the raglan. Then I’m stopping at my OCD meeting ;).Â
You guys have a group? I think I need to find my local OCD meet-up, too. 😉

I wanna join this group too! A knitter is forever resourceful, less digits, less knitting…:D

I can’t find the brown and gold No Bo yarn anywhere. I even have WalMart headquarters
buyer’s looking into this. A one time promo deal. Bought in Turkey. The good news is
Auroa/Bird’s Eye now has the same stuff in Hobby Lobby, but not my color I’m needing so
dearly. Any one out there got a lead for me to get my hand on some brown/Gold NoBo Ribbon
Yarn. Time is of the essence.
