I spent the afternoon cleaning the piles of yarn left overs all around the shelves on my bed. I have a problem... I can't seem to separate myself from the yarn. I have a HUGE plastic zippered bag full of cotton, and several grocery store bags full of acrylic all around my bed, plus a duffel bag full of sock yarn too. I know I should put all the yarn in a closet or something and just have the one skein I am working with, but I can't. What if I need purple or green and all I have out is blue and white? What if I suddenly have an urge to make a dishcloth and all I have out is acrylic? You see the dilemma? What's a yarn addict to do?
CONTEST STUFF:
Today I took a picture of the lovely needle holder Maria made for me when I was in the Cocoa swap, your assignment is to guess how many needles I have stored in this holder. The only hint I will give is these are all straight needles, no circulars and no double points, they are in a different container (also around my bed area... cause what if I need a different needle...lol)
Anyway, post your guess in the comment section and receive an entry in this weeks contest.

Not too much else is going on here, I need to work on some knitted squares for the next VJG vision I have, but I want to try to clean up around here first. Just in case I have a visitor at the end of the week. {{{are you curious??? well I'm not telling until I know for sure}}}
I spoke to MaryAnn on the phone today, that was nice. I have really made some great friends through this blogging venue and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Someday wouldn't it be great if we all got to meet?
I am off to bed now... praying I can sleep tonight, I really need it.

I have the same yarn dilemma. I also have the skeins that I just look at and admire with no plans to use yet.
Let me know what we can do for this condition.
