So pretty. My problem is I can buy yarn so much faster than I can knit it. DH buys cans of sardines "in case of an earthquake". I guess I buy yarn in case of as sheep shortage! And at The Loopy Ewe, you gotta be quick or get left out. Which is what happened with YP Storm. Loved that color but missed it. My package of ATH arrived last night. So pretty.

Viola was a close second, since I'm partial to purple. I've only known one knitter in my life that was a one-project-at-a-time knitter, and that is my mother. I often wish I had more of her self-discipline. Right now I have four projects in the works - 2 pairs of socks, a sweater, and a baby blanket for charity. But there is this beautiful purple silk blend yarn for a scarf in my bag that is screaming to be cast on. I'm thinking that would be a good project to keep in my car for all the time I spend waiting for my kids at school, dance, etc. It may find its way there today in time to go to the dentist's office!

A friend of mine recently learned the term "castaholic" -- she was very happy to find a term that she felt was more positive than "a finishing failure." I think it's kinda cute.

Your glovies are so pretty! I'm really glad you made up the pattern..it really is a nice little cable effect, isn't it? And, I have to say, I'm so glad you got some of Heather's yarn. I have a few skeins from awhile back that I got in a trade with her, and I love it! Good for you! Oh, Sheri! Your glovies are so pretty!

These are all so very lovely! I love all of the new yarns you've gotten. I love your sock blockers! I've actually been looking for sock blockers - are you going to start selling them? I would love to give you the business! Ooh! These are all so very lovely! I love all of the new yarns you’ve gotten.
