So where have I been hiding all these purchases?
Well, the truth is, I really haven't been purchasing that much yarn.
I Know, I know. You should probably sit down before you pass out.
But it's really hit me that I may have hit SABLE already. (Stash Accumulation Beyond Life Expectancy, for those not in the know.)
I'm not even thirty yet.
Yeah.
So, I've slowed down on my yarn purchases.
Slowed down, mind you. I didn't say I stopped entirely.
So, prepare yourself for some hot, wooly action.
First off, we have some of Latte and Llamas' limited edition DK weight yarn for March.
The colorway was called "Hyrule." How was I supposed to pass that up? My poor nerdy heart nearly exploded as is.
Next up, we have some lovely lace weight yak/silk blend that I bought in a buy-in on one of my facebook groups.
I seem to be on a silk buying spree right now. Raineshine was a silk blend, this is a silk blend. And then I kinda fell into a spell at Harps and Thistles clearance sale.
Yep, that's all 100% silk. Two different colors of Malabrigo on either side and some lucious Alchemy silk in the middle.
I also picked up this delightfully squishy hank of Blue Sky Alpaca's Extra.
This baby is destined for some sort of cowl that I will probably live in when it's done.
To finish out the post, I've saved what I consider the best for last.
At the last pj party, the Three Irish Girls trunkshow had just started. I was going to honestly try to not buy anything, but you know how that goes. At least I talked myself out of the $100 gradient set that matched my hair perfectly .
Instead, I bought these two beauties.
The one on the left is Kraken. The other is an OOAK named Under the Sea. They're destined for some sort of shawl together. There's no way I could break them up.
I would say that this is all the yarn porn you're going to get for a while, but the Great Lakes Fiber Show is tomorrow. I have no faith in my willpower.
Wish my poor wallet luck, friends. It's gonna need it.
