I love cotton yarn. Especially the 3 or dk weight. Looks like you have some there. And at least a double layer. What do you make with that? I think tops are awesome with it.

Ikr!! Cotton yarns truly are amazing!
I’m making bags, coasters, deco and various items with it. Currently I’m working on a bikini for a friend 
have you made tops with cotton yarn yet? If so, can you recommend any patterns?

I have. I made this for my baby granddaughter. Ha. Not what you meant though.
I made some that the pattern was wrong, many errors with no response, and I had to adapt them. Will not recommend those. This one is one I made custom for me 7 years ago. I will hopefully make another for my daughters wedding the end of September. Along with a pattern. Skirt first, so I know the length to make.
This may by next though. Now you got me looking.

Gorgeous! The piece you made for your grandaughter is super sweet - actually perfect for what I was planning to make soon, too. A friend of mine will become mother soon!
That cardigan must have been a lot of work though, no? Sending tons of respect! It looks great! What yarn weight did you use for that one, also 3 or dk?

Yes, it was Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK. I have a large stash of it. Hopefully in a color I can use. Maybe I should check that before making the skirt …
Not hard at all really. Easy pattern repeats.

Sweet! Haha yes, make sure you stock up on that yarn before you end up running out in the middle of working on the project - not fun at all!
Omg that stash is so beautifullll I need to up my stash game because I use a shoe storage big box looking think that slides under my table, but I wanted to make using my yarn fun so I cut out some card stock and put a hobby lobby bag over it to make a sign so it’s funny! And I know about the controversy about hobby lobby but I just love the yarn

Omg thats so creative!!! Since im not american I had to look up hobby lobby real quick - didnt know anything about them until 5 mins ago. For my storage solution: I’m just using a an office storage container thats under my desk, so I can just reach down to grab some yarn if needed. My next plan was upgrading my 2x2 ikea shelf into a pretty yarn storage! All those colors might be a nice view :3
And haha tyty i love this cat. Found that pic on the internet several years ago, now it’s my pfp - even at my office job haha

Oh really!? I love hobby lobby because the acrylic yarn is actually super soft!! Like it doesn’t feel like acrylic it feels like real fiber, but that’s a really good idea about the ikea shelves. And omg I can’t get over how funny and cute that kitty is I feel like I have that face whenever I’m in a public space lol, but that’s so cool that it’s even your profile photo at your office job!!
