Funky Yarns Again?

Yeap. I bought myself some funky yarns again from Spotlight :up: . I bet this is on your mind, “What is she thinking?” :laidback: . Oh well. I can’t help if. Went to Spotlight this morning for some last minute shopping before my mum flies back to KL today. We were about to leave when something caught my eye in the bargain basket.

My Spotlight Loot

10 balls of Cleckheaton Country 8 ply for $8??? Mum said to buy and hopefully I’ll be able to make a vest out of it. Next, I’ve been wanting to knit some cushions for awhile now. 10 balls Moda Vera Jazz for $8?? That’s about 50% off. Yeap. I grab that too plus 2 balls of Spotlight 100% acrylic yarns. I know they’re not as nice to knit with compare to other yarns but at least they’re machine washable which is good :yuck:

Oh…by the way, I just turned a quarter century old yesterday :cute:
