$64.89 on yarn

just returned from rather exciting yarn run, all excited about my yarns. I have discovered that not one, but two of my skeins so far are not solid lengths...they are two shorter pieces together. Both are Lion, one boucle and one Jiffy thick'n'quick, both came from a Joann's fabric store. I'm pretty much an obsessed newbie, and need to know:

is this common? Are skeins/balls/hanks supposed to be solid lengths, or should I expect this every so often? It's not the end of the world, since my projects are little fun things, but if it were for my larger project I'd be irritated.

so, if I need to call somebody and be mean, I'm guessing that would be Lion? there is no returning to joann...on sale, far away, no time, etc.

in other news, I love lily sugar'n cream cotton.

thanks!
