In this video I head into Aldi and do a proper budget-crafter deep dive into their 2025 yarn collection—plus all the little crochet bits and bobs that always end up in my basket. I start with the shopping side of things (what I found, what caught my eye, and what I actually think is worth grabbing when you’re trying to build a stash without blowing the budget). Then I unpack the haul and go through the notions first: I’m looking at what you actually get for the price, how the tools feel in the hand, and whether they’re the kind of “handy but random” extras you’ll really use. After that, it’s yarn time. I talk through the different skeins, the colours, and the feel—then I get into the real question: how it works up when you crochet with it, and whether it holds up as a budget option. I also chat about who I think Aldi yarn suits best (yes, beginners can absolutely use it), and what I’d personally buy again versus what I’d skip. If you love thrifty yarn hunting, honest reviews, and a chill little stash chat, this one’s for you.
