That translates into no extra money for yarn, so I'm trying to use yarn that I have or thread that I have. Due to the kindness of my craft club, I do have a JoAnn's gift card, which now has maybe $10 on it (if I'm lucky) because I had to buy more yarn for my afghan that I was making with my stash yarn. LOL<BR/><BR/>You're little tote is cute.<BR/><BR/>Tomorrow is my WI, hope I lose some of my stash!Mary Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15869952989945350072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5453185182184756493.post-32372404968347909702008-01-31T16:52:00.000-08:002008-01-31T16:52:00.000-08:00definately a #1 (1- I am on the eat all you want k...definately a #1 (1- I am on the eat all you want knitting diet...

In...I don't really know anymore what diet I am on. <BR/><BR/>In the begining of med school I was on the "thou shall buy NO YARN" diet. I just used what I had and was happy because having a newborn really cuts into ones knitting time anyway. It really was a choice on food or yarn and hubby and baby are not willing to fast...<BR/><BR/>Now that i am working on a knitting design business like thing (really I am only going to get 3 patterns out a year self publish wise and one that hopefully will sell to an online mag for advertisements sake.) I am allowing myself to buy yarns but ONLY what is needed for a pattern. I was hoping that I could actually make money teaching knitting but so far I have had 2 students in as many months so that won't be helping with yarn money for designing. In fact, it looks like my blog is making more with ads than what I can make teaching. At least I have X-mas gift money to buy stuff I love with.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Sorry making this into a money rant. The truth is that it isn't so much of a diet as a begger at this point. (In fact, 90% of my stash on Ravelry is Random Acts of Kindness yarn... meaning people were destashing and just gave it to me.)<BR/><BR/>Now don't go feeling sorry for me, I did CHOOSE this when hubby went to medical school, and it will only last another two years then I get yarn again. There is an end in sight!MamaMayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16646344425686561507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5453185182184756493.post-37957325151281660392008-01-31T09:21:00.000-08:002008-01-31T09:21:00.000-08:00I'm the 3rd one!

Sometimes I also "binge buy" my stash. 2 weeks ago I made a "mistake" and both $90 worth of Wool Ease from Joann.com it was on sale $1.99 (my first time buying this yarn). I only meant to by $50 worth but when I got it in the mail I just couldnt return it. I tried, they even sent me a return lable...but it was too late. Its duplicate colors and its thinner than I thought it would be but I just couldn't part with it. Its Mine, All Mine!OhAmyKPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816147690787911281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5453185182184756493.post-28754014531810574202008-01-31T09:19:00.000-08:002008-01-31T09:19:00.000-08:00I am also number 2- I am on the use it to lose it ...I am also number <BR/><BR/>2- I am on the use it to lose it plan. Trying to lighten the "stash" load, use what I have before I buy more. Waste not, want not, right?<BR/><BR/>I want more, but have 2 huge huge totes that I need to start using up. Although if I do get a special project then I might go buy some more yarn... but I'm doing ok right now.Katie Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13265374591715748974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5453185182184756493.post-51130152471886146952008-01-31T08:30:00.000-08:002008-01-31T08:30:00.000-08:00i guess i am number 2 as well.
