Ok.
I'm done buying yarn for a while. I have plenty. Dare I say too much?
There are a few that I will buy if the price is right/I get out of debt and am on ESK...
I still want to try MadTosh Pastoral and will buy Sundara FSM (esp. in reds), for example.
But, I have a huge box of yarn from Dizzy Sheep and like every color in the DiC Smooshy line...
But i have the drive to knit, knit, knit. I just cast on Ishbel and wanna start Red Skies at Night...
So.....I'm stash busting. I'm knitting as fast as I can. I'm learning lace. I'm finishing projects. I'm casting on new ones.....but I'm not buying any more yarn!

Lace?
I am becoming a lace knitter.
I like being challenged. I like the complicated look of lace and love the ease of it. Who knew that mixing in a few yo's, p's, ssk's, k2togs with the k's would get such gorgeous results?
I have a crush on Anne Hanson's designs. Every single one of them. I want Bee Fields. Wow.
And Ishbel? Just gifted to me (thanks, Jen!). I've been lusting after this pattern for a long time now.
I just ordered some J Knits Lace-a-licious for something...not sure what, but it comes in 1200 yd skeins, so I should be able to make any Anne Hanson design. Ishbel will be from Mal Sock! I can't wait to cast on!
