Uh oh! I think I'm in trouble. I went to Joann tonight to pick up another skein of LB Fishermen's and I walked out with 4 skeins and some Patons Merino to try. Then I popped online and placed a few orders for more yarn from a some WAHMs.
Now, I have to figure out what I'm going to do with all of it! :chin I'm selling some diapers to fund paypal to buy more yarn! :shocked: Will this addiction continue for a long time? I wonder if I'll start to dream about yarn like I dream about diapers.... :emb
:need
(edited for typos - I keep finding more :P)

Oh I think it is worse...because you can delude yourself that you will use your precious yarn for other family members as presents... :lol:

nope, it's gonna get worse. Cause they eventually stop usng diapers :lol but you'll never stop amassing yarn.
Whoever dies with the most yarn, wins ;)
:lol: Theresa! Too funny.
Used to be that Anwyn's crib was full of her clothes and diapers. Now the yarn is spilling over the edges! :eek And perhaps I'm one of the delusional ones, but about a third of the yarn is for Christmas presents. :D

Well... I *do* have a friend who has offered to take some of my stash off my hands. Wasn't that nice of her? :brow

I'll take some of it, too. Just to be helpful of course! :ribbit
I'm doing pretty well. I need more wool, though. :sheep I have some really small balls for embellishing, one skein of FabCon lopi for a custom slot, (but no one wants it, so I'll just make it up and use it for store stock), 1/2 a skein of fisherman's dyed and ready to become a custom soaker, an extra ball of cotton from the tart hat, and a ball of fun fur.
The only thing that is unaccounted for is the lopi, and that was supposed to be for the chunky wonder I knit, but I didn't use it all.
I have a pitiful stash. I need to go shopping. Except I did just buy two skeins of Nada's wool <sheepish grin>

Oh yeah... it is going to be worse for me. I got out the yarn I received this week from Rose to show my sister... her eyes bugged out of her head.
definitely worse, but much more fun! I just ordered some mohair and I'm going to knit myself a sweater. I think it's just my personality, though.

My yarn addiction started way before my dipe one....it's dangerous, because at least dipes are useful right out of the box....I have 150 gallons of string that serves no purpose like that...:)
