Well, I did it. I ordered that bag of crap from Cherry Tree Hill. And guess what I got... yeah, it was crap.

There are two large hanks of crazy fringed ribbon. One even has glitter. Also, a large hank of baby mohair loop. HOT PINK! chenille fluff, and a nice little hank of fingering
weight alpaca. The alpaca is the only thing I like. I'm sure I can make that into a pretty lace cap for a gift or something. Also, I got a pair of needles, a color card for some crappy yarn, and three lousy patterns.
Yeah, at least I got one thing I like. And the needles are good. I am very disappointed again, however. I mean, why two hanks of lousy fringe? My biggest outrage is that they did so much advertising about a horde of
Supersock, and didn't give any. If I'd gotten one
skein of that instead of one of the fringes, I would be happy. But
NNNOOO. Fringe galore.
In conclusion, the Cherry Tree Hill Orphan sale used to be good. But now it surely sucks. I'll not be ordering it again.

Oh that's funny. In a sad way. I had heard that about the CTH orphan sales. Some people luck out and some get glittery fringe. Well, it's pretty in a way. You can use it to decorate your xmas tree. :) The alpaca is nice anyway.
Oh, that does suck!!!
Wow! I like pink, but that is alot of pink.
You handle your disappointment like a champ. And you get props for being a risk taker. I'm sure you'll whip up something fabulous!
