I've been lusting to make this beautiful cotton sweater entitled Kyoto and now I will be able to buy the yarn to do so. However being in financially straits I've been looking at my yarn options, hunting around for the best site to order from, etc. Well I know that I'll be ordering from WEBS because they have such a large selection and gives a discount for orders over $60. WEBS is also located about 2 hours away from my house and I may just try to convince JD ( I love you) to drive me there. *wink, wink...nudge, nudge* WEBS sells the type of yarn, Tahki Cotton Classic, that the designer of the sweater uses and this yarn happens to come in a wonderful array of colors. However since I do need to be a bit on the frugal side I've been looking at Reynolds Saucy. Now we are talking a difference of $4.99/108 yards vs. $4.75/185 yards, while this may only save me about $10 when you are so broke that your mom pays your rent that's a lot. The problem is that they don't have as great of an array of colors. What to do? Should I go with the cheaper yarn and settle for colors that aren't really what I want? Bite my lip and buy the yarn that has the colors I desire? Or just say to myself "What the hell are you buying yarn for? Your broke!"
