Oh, this is going to be GREAT for trying new yarns! I got my first pack of Elann sample skeins last week! 5 small skeins of different types of yarn - along with the name, weight, type, washing/drying (or not) instructions, and more info about each skein! GREAT for freeform crochet too! With the sample skeins came bits (about 3 inches) of other colors taped to piece of paper.
Since I received 5 skeins the first week (there are 5 Tuesdays in November), instead of 1, Elann must have decided to do monthly mailings instead of weekly. I imagine that it's much cheaper for them and it doesn't make a difference to me - hmmm, except I was looking forward to receiving weekly packages!
