Out of Control


My yarn stash is getting out of control. I have so much yarn that I could knit from the grave and never have to spend another penny. But I just can't stop buying yarn. I see something online and have to have it, I see something new at my LYS and have to have it, I read about it in a knitting magazine and have to have it. I think I need an intervention. When I first started knitting, I would decide on a project, buy the yarn and then knit until the project was finished. Only then would I buy more yarn. Not anymore. I have so many things started- I think my projects have projects.

I have those clear plastic bins all over the house. My plan is to scatter them so the hubster doesn't realize just how much unused stash I have. I'm pretty sure my plan is not working. The other day when I said I had to run to the yarn shop to get something, he asked me why I couldn't just look in the 70 billion pounds of yarn I already have.

I am almost finished knitting the squares for Lizard Ridge. I'm now on 21/24. Think I can have it all finished in one week? I hope so.

The picture is of some of my prized and highly coveted Sundara sock yarn. I lurve this yarn with a passion.
