So I’ve got several small projects going on. I’m still making scarves, because the yarn in my stash was purchased with the intention of making them (not enough to do something bigger). I have enough stash and oddball yarn that I feel I should not purchase more yarn. At all.<\/p>\n
But I waaaaaaannnnaaaaaa! <\/p>\n
Well, what I want is to purchase yarn with intention. For instance, I’d love to make a Booga bag<\/a>. Or a three-panel Noro felted bag<\/a>. Or a sweater from the Big Girl Knits book. And I don’t want to rummage through what I’ve got to see if I can come up with enough.<\/p>\n But I feel I can’t, because I have some perfectly unused balls and skeins (in several cases one each<\/em>) of Bouton d’Or, Claudia, Rowan Cashsoft, Crystal Palace Merino, and Noro Cash Iroha, and some random Cascade 220 and mohair. I suppose I could give these away, but these single skeins\/balls represent real money — in some cases $11 each. <\/p>\n I’m drooling as I find free patterns. I don’t knit fast enough! Must. Exercise. Self. Control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So I’ve got several small projects going on.
