The yarn was stash yarn that I've had for years (decades?); I don’t even remember how long it’s been since Target sold yarn, especially for $.79 a skein. In spite of its age, though, the yarn was soft and fluffy, and unlike most acrylics, it was not harsh on my hands, even after hours of knitting.
So far, I'm doing pretty well about using from stash and not buying yarn. I may *have* to buy some today, though. After all, it's I Love Yarn day, and Jo-Ann's has Patons Classic Wool DK Superwash on sale for $2.99. I've been wanting to try it, and I could get a sweater quantity for $30. If they weren't out of the color I really want, I wouldn't even be arguing with myself about it. :)
