I left two finished blankets over at the library (a charity drop-off point) and found a bag of goodies waiting there for me. Look at what someone donated!
This is about two and a half pounds of yarn. The blankets I donated weighed three. Nice to know the charity yarn stash is in balance, staying well under control!
I already know what I’m making with the Hunter Green and some of the Light Fuchsia. There are photos to take and a post to write, so I can tell you all about my newest project. “I’ve got an idea!”, I say in a sing-song voice as I leave the room, skipping. Well, at least in my mind, I’m skipping!
Yes, isn’t it amazing how some yarn just tells you what it wants to be made into!
And then there some yarn that just isn’t talking!
Is there a limit on long you’ll keep a particular yarn, waiting for it to speak up?
I’ll wait for however long it takes. I have some that been there for five years. It’ll talk to me eventually.
Five Years!?! You are a patient woman!!
Who am I kidding? I’m sure I’ve got some lovely stuff in my personal stash (non-charity) that’s been around that long too.
You know the kind, those particularly yummy yarns you just enjoy having, although you can’t help but wonder if you’ll ever knit/crochet them up!
The charity acrylics, on the other hand, come in so fast, I try to get them to cycle right back out. Whish!!
