Yarn that comes to me second hand always gets a spa week in the freezer before I even open the lil bag it came in.
Better safe than sorry!

This post was prompted by a search in destash groups online for an additional bit of a certain cotton yarn I'm using in a #crochet sweater. The first five yarn balls are also thrifted and I might have enough but since the length needs some adjustments, I felt more at ease with some wiggle room.

@catobelli Every scrap of fabric I'm given gets a hot iron before I cut it into shapes for quilting.

Learned this after opening 4 boxes of fabric from a colleague whose wife had died 4 years before, and they had been stored in the garage.

Nothing still alive, but plenty of egg casings and corpses 😱

@EliJquilting *shudders* this is exactly the nightmare I wanna prevent after living in a rented flat with moths underneath the wallpaper and fearing for my woolen clothes...
