well I guess I still love purple




This lady from Craigslist must have some sort of yarn collecting obsessive disorder(yeah don't we all). Her entire house is FULL. She could never knit up that much yarn! Anyway I managed to get these - 24 hanks of penguin super cable and 10 balls of plymouth plus 3 blu caribe for 46 bucks. Now I can start the CAL and make another hat out of the blu caribe. I had to restrain myself from just rolling around on this lady's floor in a fit of yarn overload. I took son #3, the one with the level head, and after about thirty times of me saying "ooooh this one is seeeeewwwwww prettyyyyyyyy" he dragged me out. I might have just stayed....forever.....mwah-ha-ha!

Scary Cap and Stash Hunting


I attempted to make a drops design cap yesterday, but instead of # of rows the pattern said "crochet 6 inches" and this cap looks like something Dr. Seuss might wear. I'm about to go meet this lady from Craigslist who has advertised an entire house worth of high quality yarn in sweater quantities that she wants to sell off due to a move.... I will go get what I can for thirty bucks!! Cross yer fingers for me and I will put up pics later of what I come home with. I'm hoping to get enough to do the plus-size crochet group CAL sweater!!
