Being an addict and an enabler makes it hard to tell someone "no" to buying yarn
So, Yvonne, I cannot "judge" you- for I don't want to be "judged" when I fall off the wagon.
Maybe- to be a true Support Group- we should set up a help/need list. GrannieAnnie mentioned something similar on another thread.......
When one of us decides we want to knit something for a gift and we truly do not have a suitable yarn in our stash- we should post what gift we want to give and what yarn would be acceptable. Then, the rest of us that are trying to de-stash can look through ours and see if we have something that will work. If so---do a TRADE. That way, we are not increasing our stashes and are helping each other to provide nice gifts. What do you think???  _________________ A Bug's Life: http://lobug.blogspot.com/ |

Lobug: I'd better be sure and do them for this coming Christmas then , hadn't I?
Nony: thank you and if ever I can return the compliment just let me know
The only 4ply I have is sock yarn and that's not in colours either of the intended recipients would appreciate. _________________ Yvonne

Holly, you're not trying to make me act all grown up and responsible are you - I've done enough of that at work today! _________________

At this point I don't think there's any controlling them.....they are all addicts, pushers and enablers. They are a yarn sellers idea of heaven.  _________________ www.knittinghaven.com |
