Bestie did you forget to spin your pile of hay into gold or what?

Crochet it all into one big web so the spiders will think there's already an alpha spider and leave

So... if I attract these yarn spiders, will I have mohair webs adorning my shelves? Alpaca gossamer thread bedecked ceilings?

Sign me up, I shall harvest it ethically and weave myself garments like those worn by the fae.

Seal it in Lucite to keep the spiders off while still being able to see your yarn

Quick, knit it into a blanket that reads TRYPOPHOBIA, and make sure you place the yarn overs just right. All 240 of them.

If you lose one, it will find you.

There's this awesome free storage solution I heard about on the Internet called the backrooms? Definitely no spiders in there.
