Tina hosts the episode this week, with a segment about how to handle yarn substitution as well as things to try to help you find a suitable yarn to replace what your pattern calls for. They remain on the topic of yarn and talk about planned or impromptu yarn buying breaks, where you end up not buying yarn for a significant amount of time. Tina talks about how in September, she will have met her goal for not buying yarn for an entire year, and how that went. Drea tells the cast about how she has cut down her spending dramatically without realizing it or trying to. Meg and Jess discuss how they still buy other indie dyers yarn to support other small businesses, and how they will share yarn between them.
