In this video I met up with my friend Flourish Crochet JK and did one of my favorite things: yarny thrifting. I brought her along to my go-to spot in Nashville, Smart Arts & Crafts, because if you love a good stash moment but you don’t love paying full-price, this place is dangerous in the best way. We walk through the shop together and I show you the yarn finds that make me do that little “oh no, it’s coming home with me” laugh. It’s not just yarn, either—Smart Arts & Crafts is one of those treasure-hunt stores where you can stumble into tools, crafty odds and ends, and all kinds of inspiration for future projects. We also made a stop for a little treat at District Coffee, because thrifting and caffeine go together like a hook and a skein. If you want ideas for where to thrift yarn, what to look for, and how to turn a simple outing into a cozy crochet day with a friend, this one’s for you.
