Ok, so there was this yarn sale. It was a very lovely yarn sale.
With 35% off a yarn which I think is already reasonably priced, for being 100% alpaca and/or silk. And it had free postage. And it had a little free gift.
So then I decided I needed more stash ('cause we all need more stash, right?)
Now. Before I show you. You should not judge. I am obviously weak-willed. And officially ashamed of my stash now. And poor. I have hidden it (except from you lot).
Do you have stash-shame? Let's make a stash-shame support group.
Anyway, the original reason I went to the site was for this gorgeous Drops laceweight, because Rummer found out Drops yarn was on sale for the whole of May & made me ever so jealous with her pretty purchases. (We bought ours from Wool Warehouse, but anywhere which sells drops yarn might have some sort of discount on it this month!)
Then I caught sight of this fluffy curly wonderfulness, and did need one in each colour...
And then "Hey! Whilst this alpaca/silk yarn is so cheap I should buy enough for a lovely floaty cardigan!"
Quickly followed by "Heck, why stop at one, I'm gonna need two cardigans!"
"Just a couple more, just in case"
"This fingering weight would indeed make lovely mitts, and colourwork things, and hexipuffs..."
The box shop also required a visit because, of course, I did need somewhere to put it all!
And that, that is my yarny admittance to you. I do feel better for admitting it. I may not be able to go to the pub for the rest of the month, but I have two boxes of yarn to roll in instead.
*Dreams of rolling in yarn instead*
Do you have a hidden stash? ... go on, show us. You know you wanna...

That's BAAAAD. I thought I was bad, but that's really bad (interpret 'bad' however you want, mind)...
ReplyDeleteTeehee, I did hear 'BAAAAD' in a sheepy voice. Baaaaaaaah-d. sheep on the brain.
DeleteDamn it, now I have to buy some drops yarn as well! :D
ReplyDeleteDooooooooooo it :p
DeleteI will! Isn't it all soft and scrunchy? I want to touch it! :D
DeleteIs so soft! I've kept the box beside my desk to squish occasionally...
DeleteOh noooo I've just bought some too!
ReplyDeleteIt's yummmmmmy. I'm still deliberating over which cardigan to knit :)
DeleteSo much gorgeous squishable stash! Love it!
ReplyDeleteMy bank account is not going to love that link though. :( I think I might need to visit the box shop at the end of the month as well!
