Just for fun

My favorite S&T post...
A few months ago Kristin had a show and tell about some of her yarn stash. I totally related to that beautiful stash thanks to a growing stash of my own. I commented and a few weeks later I had a chance to have my own show and tell with a part of Kristin's stash sitting in my living room!
The shingles have prevented me from finishing several projects that have been started from pieces of her yarn. Hopefully, with my arm on the mend, I will soon be able to complete them all! I have a baby blanket in the works and a chemo cap for a friend of mine that is fighting breast cancer. I also have a lovely surprise for Kristin!
Sorry for the lack of pics this week. Blogger is being a complete jerk to me lately and my fonts and pics are getting all messed up.
Go check out the rest of the class!

For the record - blogger and I have been exchanging really unkind words lately too! And, FUNNY - my word verification is "repar"!

Krisin is one of the kindest most giving bloggy friends I have met. Glad you to have a great connection and hope you feel much better soon!

Between Kirsten and Mrs. Spit I no longer feel like my yarn "obsession" is weird. :0)

Sounds like you like it too! The weird thing is, I usually don't end up doing much with it, other than petting it and cuddling it . . .

(my blogger word verification: foraphon - the one I had over at Mel's sounded downright dirty, since I am a lady, I shall not repeat!)

Wow, that was quite a stash she had. I hope you have fun with your knitting stuff.

Aaaaaw...thanks hon! I can top anyone's word verification. I had one early today (on an infertility blog no less) that read diesperm (separate it into two words after the third letter...ROFL).

And, I must confess, after I posted that lovely burnt orange yarn I got a little while ago, I got accosted by more yarn in Big Lots. And, being the yarn whore I am, how could I not buy it for only $1 when the normal price is almost $5.

Kristen is the kewlest!

Glad you had the chance to receive some of her generosity into your own living room!

I hope you feel better soon and can put that yarn to use!

Kristin does seem to be one the nicest ones around huh? What a great lady she is! Hope you get better soon and knit something to show off.
