Sources for Yarn?
knitting-warehouse is amazing. I have ordered both yarn and my beloved Susan Bates Quicksilver circular needles from them, and they are speedy, speedy! Smiley's often has internet sales at 99 cents per skein - I was able also to get my Susan Bates Quicksilvers for $3.99 the other day, just certain sizes were available, but those were what I needed. You have to watch, like any other savvy shopping you do, but the deals are out there. And of course, I'm an elann.com aholic! Take my credit cards away, please. My last order will be my last order for awhile...will be here early next week!
Knitpicks.com is my next place to order from - AFTER the yarn diet!
Okay, so now that I've given these sites such great reviews, do you think they'll offer me a discount? Or perhaps a gift certificate? Probably not, but as long as they keep their prices where they are, that's okay with me.
And thank you, thank you FiberRAOK!! I'm so pleased to be a new member! (see the button over there ----->)

You didn't mention knitpicks.com - importing yarns from the Andes and cutting out the middlemen to keep the prices down. I ordered some yarns to make felted bags, and the quality was similar to Cascade 220 I had been using, but about half the cost per project. Thanks for turning me on to some new sources.
wicked! Wicked! [sigh] Now I've got at least three new places to check out! I'll never stay on my "diet" now!
