But come on....nomally 7.50 a skein was on sale for 2.99 a skein. Therefore, I have two prayer shawls waiting to be made. So many projects waiting for me now. Of course, this yarn restriction will probably only last until my next trip to the LYS!Crafty Critterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16968034003064011010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34713108.post-92014099744028177242006-12-23T16:47:00.000-08:002006-12-23T16:47:00.000-08:00Carolyn, the only yarn I seem to have stashed is s...Carolyn, the only yarn I seem to have stashed is sock yarn and dishcloth yarn. Those will be easy to knit from...although Zoomom told me today that our LYS will soon be carrying Opal! Other yarn that I've bought for projects, but changed my mind will be sold or I'll use it for a different project. Sometime I wonder, WHAT in the WORLD was I doing when I chose that yarn!<br /><br />Beth, WHAT a problem you have! Oh MY!!! I could do some serious damage with $300! What FUN!<br /><br />Half way finished with last pattern repeat....but present wrapping shall ensue when I finish the repeat before ribbing can start.Pensguyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01070367708282434296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34713108.post-47580031635884095182006-12-23T16:37:00.000-08:002006-12-23T16:37:00.000-08:00Knitting goals for the New Year?

Too many partials, not enough yardage. <br /><br />In 2007, I want to knit at least 2 things destined for Noble Minded Projects - probably scarves, hats, mittens, and the like. <br /><br />I also want to knit something that, to the normal eye, will be indistinguishable from the Unst Lace Stole in Heirloom Knitting. I reserve the right to change every single pattern in the Stole, as suits me, but something like it is going to get knit.<br /><br />I think, I think, I'll also make it a goal to knit a cozy sweater or cardigan for myself. My current cozy cardigan is aboug 14 years old, and the elbows are starting to get a bit thin.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17836309988298364312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34713108.post-26295639625866689462006-12-23T15:37:00.000-08:002006-12-23T15:37:00.000-08:00Penny,

I'm eagerly awaiting an update on those socks.<br /><br />I was telling Zoomom that my MIL gave me $300 for Christmas to spend on yarn!! She gave dh the same amount to spend how he saw fit. Dh is going to buy a new DVD player with a portion of his money and when I offered him a portion of mine he turned me down.<br /><br />MIL insists that the money be spent soley on me and she wanted to know my intentions. I promised her I'd spend it on yarn. Oh, what a burden!<br /><br />I'm scouring the sales now and I plan to do at least some shopping this weekend.<br /><br />Don't you just love The Loopy Ewe? Sheri makes every purchase feel like a gift. Some of my money must be spent there. I'm thinking Yarn Pirate or Sweet Georgia. I love all the yarn you got. Beautiful!<br /><br />Best of luck with your Cherry Tree Hill. Would you believe that at the end of the cuff of my second 2nd Dublin Bay sock I found a knot! I'm holding my breath and praying there are no more knots. Maybe it's just this colorway.<br /><br />Merry Christmas!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06294803600416758485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34713108.post-80356929095107578652006-12-23T14:50:00.000-08:002006-12-23T14:50:00.000-08:00Oh, yes!

Thankfully, Valentines day will be coming soon and my hubby knows I would appreciate sock yarn more than roses.<br />See...I have a plan!<br />And speaking of UFO's...blue and brown UFO's with little cat paws. I expect to see these after ChristmasSheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03607350771387706778noreply@blogger.com
