I found Ravelry.com a knitter/spinner/crochet community

I discovered better yarns (generally not found at chain stores)

I discovered better supplies (again generally not found at chain stores)

Better doesn't mean the most expensive, it just means the tools that work best for me/make me happy. I also learned I don't have to love what is "popular" currently.

I spend serious time finding the right yarn, supplies and pattern before I start something. They all have to make me happy!

Good luck!

I got into making cute little baby hats etc... I've sold a few on Etsy for photograhy props. Just lost my interest but it does come and go.

Here is a sample of a creation:

I promised my daughter a special, unique baby afghan, she's due in March, so I have a few months, thank goodness, to work on it.

She wants a black/white zebra pattern, first.

She would like a red/black/white wave pattern also.

Ideas on decent baby yarns and where to find them in black and red?
thanks!
