[Nfb-krafters-korner] Yarn Shopping

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

How much yarn do you think I collect, doing plastic canvas.  A little for this, a little for that and another 2 colors for another project, sure adds up!   
You can get many items out of one scain, especually if they are small.
I try to use common colors that can be used, over and over.

Hi, my name is Lisamaria and I'm a yarnaholic.

I started crocheting and looming in april and I've bought enough yarn for the projects I have completed which consists of 4 baby blankets, 4 baby hats, a cute little Christmas stocking, 4 scarves, 2 purses and one wrister (I haven't finished the second one yet to make the pair).
all of those projects added up to many scanes of yarn. But, that's not all the yarn I have ... I have gone nuts with yarn sales, yarn textures, future projects that are on my list and so on. I have a hamper about 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide overflowing with yarn. Peach colored yarn, Christmas yarn, white yarn, purple yarn, red, pink, blue ...

I love the names for yarn like Oatmeal, Barley, Denim Mist, Portland Wine, Painted Desert, Datona Lemon, Charlotte Blue, Cherry Blossom, Mardi gras, etc...I'm so addicted!
