Yarn of the Month Review

I received the November yarn of the month on Monday.

I haven't decided if I will use the pattern with the yarn or another project.

Love Yarn of the Month Club

I really love being a member of Yarn of the Month. Each month there's a brand new colorway, new pair of patterns and code to download another, plus a discount on website purchases and shipping, and a surprise goodie. If I'm not feeling the yarn after the spoilers or can't take in new yarn that month I can skip it at any point (or add MORE/speed up my shipment, etc).

I'm allergic to those other popular yarns from animals (wool, cashmere, etc) as well as several plant fibers, so finding attainable silk has been a game changer!
