I really enjoy that there are classic yarns in the anniversary sale like eco and cascade 220. It’s the time of the year when I get a “sweater’s worth”. #41years

I love the anniversary sale! My favorite memory is a couple of years ago when my husband and I stopped at Webs during the Anniversary Sale on our way to Cape Cod. I was having so much fun shopping in the warehouse and being able to see the beautiful Anniversary Sale yarns, but my husband was having more fun in the front of the store with all of the husbands! #41 years…lets make it lots more!

I was thrilled to see Cascade 220 (not superwash) on sale! Had to stock up on several of my favorite colors for a fall project. Happy #41 years!
