I wouldn't be surprised if I wear this one for the rest of my life. The quality yarns really last, and continue to look nice. My knitting teacher told me that the sweaters she had made with cheaper yarn fell apart after a few years. When she was making good money, she bought the higher quality yarn, and she is still wearing those sweaters, twenty years later...

I got some weird looks, but it helped me stay on budget. That's a great idea about buying a donut! I'd forgotten about donuts. Now I am craving a glazed chocolate one...yum!TheAwakenedSoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11636961399581011120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5658499070218607455.post-22744460793094532672019-02-14T09:59:25.465-08:002019-02-14T09:59:25.465-08:00What a beautiful color!

I think they were a dollar less the last time I was at one...which was a couple years ago. I decided I can do without! (Plus a dollar local donut can keep me just as happy.)

You will treasure the sweater for years. I also believe in buying quality and taking care of your things. I splurged on a pair of black Chanel ballet flats 10 years ago and have had 3 sets of heels and one half sole done over the years.
