Since I?ve been doing a lot of crochet and knitting lately for charity, I?ve started looking for inexpensive sources for yarn. One place that I?ve found yarn and other crafting supplies cheap was at my local Salvation Army Thrift stores. Since seeing the yarn there so cheaply, I?ve been keeping my eyes open at all the thrift stores I frequent, as well as garage sales. Another good source is to ask for the items on Freecycle. A few years ago, I got a huge trash bag full of fabric. Some of it I couldn?t use, but there were several pieces large enough to make dresses or skirts from. Last, but not least, ask around at church, a lot of times people have yarn or craft supplies they aren?t using that they would be more than happy to get rid of. I just let the ladies at church know about my charity crochet and knitting and have had several of them give me yarn to work with. I?d also place an want ad on Craig?s list. So often people have left overs from projects or have inherited yarn that they don?t know what to do with and would be more than willing and happy to get it out of their house. It never hurts to ask and it certainly doesn?t cost anything to ask!
