My name is Kellie.....

and I'm a YARNOHOLIC!!!!


It's official. I decided to spent a significant part of my Sunday organizing the 'craft area' of my closet. Oh my gosh....I didn't realize how much yarn I had collected since I started knitting!!! There's the leftovers from finished projects, the stash of yarn for the inevitable baby gifts, the bought specifically for a project that I haven't started yet yarn, and the what can I make with this it's the coolest ever yarn group!
What prompted all this? I ran to the craft store to buy thread to sew a button. It sounds so harmless!! But I can't go to the store and NOT go to the knitting section. So there I was, perusing the usual suspects, when BAM!! Glaring at me & calling my name was a sign for a sale. Only $1.49 a ball for 100% squishy wool in the coolest happiest colors ever!! I had to get some!! (I bought nearly all they had out, 8 balls....it's usually $5.99 each!)
So, I organized the closet. I pulled everything out, sorted, packed, etc...you know, cleaned it the 'right way.' Here's my handiwork. Don't judge me by my yarn gluttony. I am officially now on a yarn "diet" until I clear out some of this stash!!

Wow! you have lots of yarn...
if we have time while you're home you need to show me a basic stitch so I can try a new hobby.
I like the warm cap and the new haircut.
Love, Mom

Lol I'm soo with you there KellieBelle! You think "knitting will save me money" but then you realise.... you're basically a smoker and spending every spare penny on that oh-so-lovely-its-in-the-sale-so-doesn't-count yarn!! I must get my yarn FIX! I'm also on the yarn diet! lol we should see how long we can go!
