(SABLE = Stash Accumulation Beyond Life Expectancy)

I think I’m there. One of the other boxes that came this past week was from Webs, and you see, well, they’re having a huge sale on Cascade 220, and that is a weakness of mine, and, well… look:

I got a bunch of single skeins in lots of different colors. Some of the things I’m planning to do with them include:

• Boot Toppers
• The Tulip Cardigan
• a Dr. Who Scarf (my own color combo, of course!)
• Lots of colorful hats (with motifs from my 1000 Great Knitting Motifs book
• Elfin Booties for the whole family

In short I guess there are lots of things I could do with so many colors. I like collecting large amounts of many colors. It allows my creativity to flow!

Also in the box was a sweater’s worth of eggplant-colored yarn for a sweater for me (someday). Did I mention that this yarn was on a HUGE sale? I felt like it was a good opportunity to get this yarn at such a good price. I have a fantasy of someday having a yarn room with a whole wall of shelves full of yarn in many colors. I think I’m on my way there…
