Trying Not to be a Yarn-aholic

Posted in Craft, fiber, knit at 2:23 pm by trueepicure

I’ve heard about Sundara’s Yarns from a couple of different blogs. Today I happened to read through some back posts of the Runcible Bin, where I was reminded how how beautiful Sundara’s yarn is. Sigh.

I think I want the Black over Peacock sock yarn more than I want the Wasabi sock yarn from ShiBui Knits, which is saying a lot. I need to start a list… if only Ravelry had a “Yarn Queue” for as of yet unpurchased yarn (and yes, I did request the feature).

Zinnias!

Almost a year to the day. Three froggings, two patterns, one time-out. Done!

Zinnias!

After knitting two socks, I think I have enough of the same yarn to do another pair. Not sure what I’m going to do with the leftovers. I’ll probably make another pair of socks using a different pattern. For now, however, the yarn will go back in the stash. I just don’t think I want to use this yarn again for a while.

My first 20 rows of the Mystery Stole #3. An easy knit so far, even with the beads.

Excuse me while I wipe the tears from my eyes… I’m laughing so hard that I almost fell of the couch! Yes, I did find this in Wil Wheaton’s Flickrstream, and I stumbled on it because of a knitter’s blog. Strange, huh?
