Just Because

by Kenny on August 17, 2009

Arrrghhhh…….. sometimes I wonder if I have a yarn addiction or not?

Just because…….

Let me explain. Because I’m going to a workshop to learn how to dye with plants and weeds or something like that… I had to obtain some yarn to dye.

Actually, let me digress about this whole dyeing thing. Geez, I can’t believe I didn’t even blog about this! So to make a long, long, long story short, I am going to Los Angeles at the end of the month to celebrate Kyle’s birthday and then die.

Woops, did I say die? No, I’m not going to die on Kyle’s birthday, I’m going ‘dye’ on Kyle’s Birthday.

So that’s why I had to get some plain yarn. Pretty huh? ArtYarns’ Ultramerino 4. Yummmm……. 7 skeins.

But somehow, some Martina and some Merino got lost along the way and ended up following Artyarns home to Texas.

Well, the Adrienne Vittadini Martina and the Schachenmayr Extra Merino needed adopting too, and now, they are in my stash. And that’s my story…… I think I now have a lifetime of knitting to do.

See ya’ll in L.A….. if not, before that.

There's nothing wrong with stashing. It's extra insulation for your house if nothing else!

I have to admit, in a lesser knitter's hands, this yarn might be wasteful, but with you, I'm confident it will emerge as amazing garments.
