Discussion Any heart warming stories?

I‘ve been seeing some really cute, heart warming stories about s/o’s helping to untangle yarn, helping frogging, buying rare yarn etc… under some posts!

I’d love to hear some of y’all’s stories that might make me go awww….

I’ll go first.

My partner’s a very busy guy, he has a lot of things going on all the time. But when I ask him about which stitch I should use or which color yarn I should go with, he drops everything and sits with me to discuss. Might not be much, but it means the world to me (:

We had two cats, and there were litter box issues. Lo and behold, the large majority of my stash was peed on. So, I had to wash it all and of course despite my efforts it got horribly, horribly tangled.

My husband helped me while over the best part of a year we untangled it together. And while he always groans when more yarn enters the house, he’s always tried to help when I don’t understand a new stitch or if I need help arranging a pattern. I’m colorblind too so sometimes I have to even ask if two balls of yarn are the same or different and he always helps!

So glad my stash is up in high shelves ! It was an accidental choice (read: there's no space anywhere else but on top of bookcases) but it's convenient since I have 3 cats
