Yarn Miser The Edited Version
I have decided that I am a yarn miser. I was recently going through my stash looking for yarn to part with for a yarn swap and I came across this skein of yarn......now wait a second am I sure this is a skein of yarn or is it tinsel garland for my Christmas tree? Yes it is a skein of No Boundries yarn from Walmart and the name of it is
So what is the big deal. You would think I was being asked to give away my first born child. I mean come on, what in the heck am I ever going to use this skein of yarn for? If I try to make a scarf out of it everyone will think I have lost my mind. Picture me in a green sweater wearing the scarf around my neck and a pair of those jingle bell earrings and christmas bulb necklace on. The kids in the neighborhood will be whispering to their moms...."Mom, why is that lady decorating herself like a Christmas tree?"
So that is why I have decided that I am a yarn miser. Please tell me that I am not alone. I really am beginning to think I have a sickness.

buy some yarn that you hate, so you can trade it for yarn that you love. probably everyone else will hate it too tho. just keep trading for yarn just a bit better.
When I do yarn swaps, I make sure it's something I can replace - or I buy 3 or 4 skeins so I don't feel....deprived. I understand where you're coming from!
I LOVE that tinsel yarn! Gimme, gimmme! I'd get some black yarn and knit the two together. Verrry elegant for a special date with a special someone or just to feel glamorous. I could never swap yarn. I want ALL of it! LOL
