Heh, I have not yet begun to approach SABLE - stash acquisition beyond
life expectancy - stage yet. I tend to buy yarn with projects in mind.
Doesn't matter that I generally don't get to said projects for at least
a year <g>
I'm wondering if there's something wrong with me. I went into one of my
not-so-local yarn shops - any shop that takes a half-hour drive on the
freeway to get to ain't local - this past week, and I walked out with
only the needles I went in to get. What's wrong with me????
