Big Lots carries novelty yarn. So I guess I can wait until later to get that yarn from Japan after all. Because I hesitated my favorite color, pink shades, was just about gone. You can't count on Big Lots to carry any stock for very long. Since it was 80 cents (20% off) I purchased four, two eyelash and two baby. Maybe this was a steal?  Since it's novelty, I really don't know how to use it yet nor how it will turn out (there weren't any helpful instructions on the label).

The mitten craze did not go so well for me this season because you have to make two for a pair.  A better idea was hats. I got to make a few of them.
