… and I am addicted to yarn!

There, I said it. Phew! This has only become a problem in recent years. More so in recent months. Something about the creation process has turned my brain to mush and all I want to do is knit beautiful things… and then give them away! I think it’s a disease, really.

Today we hitched up the wagon and rode into town (which is what I like to say when we get off our butts and make the 20 mile drive into Macon) for 3 purposes: visit the storefront side of the Snackpants place of employment, take some of his work shirts to be embroidered with the company logo, and visit the yarn store that is sadly going out of business but happily has everything 50% off. SCORE!

This is my haul:

Cost less than $40 too, which is pretty awesome if you know anything about yarn. I got a LOT of the pink one, and the purple is the same brand. I think the light pink is going to become a lovely hat for myself, the green is alpaca and I have never used it so figured what the hey! The white looking ones in the middle are actually more of an off-white with blue highlights. Should be very nice!

The problem with going to the store to buy yarn with no idea what you will make from it. I find that it causes me to buy more things than I actually need (like I actually *need* any of it!) but it also causes me to find more things to make. Or something like that.

The REAL problem is finding homes for everything I make! I just don’t need 86 knit hats and scarves and baby hats and blankets and all that.

Time to run. I think Snackpants just called me a wench so I am going to punch him in the junk. Or at least threaten to.
