The Hoity Toity yarn swap - bring on the snobby ya

Can you suggest a weight (100g hank?) and price range? I live near the yarn.com store, and the prices can vary widely. Thanks!

Ok lets keep this 100g and $25-$30 max That should give lots of choices. If you are sending 2 hanks please try to get the same lot number.

FWIW- my favorite color is green and i dont like fingering or sock weight yarn. I'm a crocheter.

Ok, I'm signing up because yarn shopping is one of my favorite activities, and I've been looking for an excuse to visit either WEBS (the storefront of yarn.com) or The Creative Needle (a yarn store one town over). I like any yarn worsted or finer, any fiber, and for this swap, jewel tones or fall colors. (I have enough purple yarn for now!)

Sorry, but I'm going to have to drop. The oil company just discovered a problem with our fill pipe and suddenly $20 for a skein of yarn seems a bit extravagant. :( Have fun!

Hi!! I'm pretty excited for this yarn swap. Lately, I've been most intensely interested in fingering weight yarn because I'm on a sock knitting kick, but I DO already have tons of it. Don't let that deter you, though. I think I have enough lace weight yarn, but any other weight is fine and will make me happy. I prefer wool or wool blended with nylon (for sock yarn), silk, alpaca, mohair, cashmere, or angora. As for color, I don't like pink and prefer color combinations that are closely shaded and subtle, like blues and purples, or reds and oranges, or greens and brown, as opposed to wild mixtures like yellow, green, turquoise, and red all together. I like groupings of color families much better than contrast. I generally like bold colors instead of pastels.
