I've Been Sooooo Good!!

Three times this last week I have been tempted to buy yarn. The first two times were on Monday, both within hours of each other. I went quilt store hopping, and had some other stops along the way of craft stores and Joann's. I walked right past the yarn section of both Joann's and the other craft store. I knew that if I even walked closer to it, I would sink!! My third temptation was Friday. I am part of the Blog, Destash, Cash for your Stash, and someone posted sock yarn which matches a skein I have. Now, I just have one little skein of this sock yarn, not quite enough to do anything for myself, and it's so pretty!! But I resisted, and when I got home from visiting a friend, someone had already snatched up that yarn. I am so proud of myself!!! However, this is going to be much, much harder than I had anticipated!!

Perhaps you should unsubscribe from the Destash blog, just for the summer. You know, avoiding temptation is key here!

Thanks for joining us!

Funny thing is, I just subscribed to it so I could sell some knitting books, maybe even some stash that I don't plan to use!! The only thing I have bought from the site so far is a sweater knitting book. I just need to hide the link until the end of summer, then I wouldn't be seeing it everytime I read blogs.
