Some MORE things I forgot (lol):
+ Follow knitting designers you like on social media and join their mailing lists for updates on sales/voucher codes
+ You don't have to use a project bag: Carrier bag, food bag, handbag will do. Anything that's a bag you already have!
+ Scrap yarn projects will keep you from buying new yarn, the bigger the scrap project (for example a blanket) the longer it'll last until you can afford new yarn
