Am I Off To A Bad Start????
O.K. I KNOW I just joined moments ago....but I made plans PREVIOUSLY to pick up some yarn today to match yarn I purchased a couple of weeks ago to knit up a gift......so it's not like I'm buying yarn for MYSELF.......does this selfless purchase of yarn count against me????
I am a confessed yarn hoarder.....it is an addiction....but I really consider it a healthy addiction....areobic actually!!! My fellow sisters in fiber lust know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. It starts as you approach your LYS....(even better when approaching a YS that is new to you!)....your heartbeat starts to pick up.....as you park and exit your car the rate doubles, your palms are starting to sweat.....hands are shaking as you reach for the YS door handle.....as you step over the threashhold and survey all the yarn possibilities you may perhaps feel faint, see stars, you hear the roar of blood pumping through your head......AHHHHH.......Fiber Lust at it's finest!!!! Now I ask you.....would you rather sweat at the gym to get that heart rate up or satisfy your yarn lust.......for me......whether it's a road trip to check out a new YS or a "quicky" at Michael's you just can't beat the SEX experience....(that would be Stash Enrichment X-pedition)!!!
I have a yarn "closet" as I call it.....last count was over 200 skeins.....I will try to get a photo of my bliss posted soon!!
Now if I can just find one of these to keep me off junk food and lose a little weight I'll be doing good....oh yeah....there is one......I think they call that Weight Watcher's.....oh well.....one thing at a time.....one thing at a time.

Aerobic yarn acquisition! I love it! I -- I -- want to believe.
This summer though, I'm losin' the yarn weight.
Hilarity!! Yarn confession at it's finest and YES, I can relate.
