I was having a yarn craving. Silly bills had kept me from buying new yarn for at least two weeks. Two weeks, people. So what if I didn't have a specific project I knew I needed yarn for. So what if I had a bunch of projects on the needles such that I have no idea where all my sevens and eights are. These are nothing. Unfortunately the spend/don't spend battle lasted late into the day (and it may have been influenced by a sleep/don't sleep battle too, followed by a veg on the couch/don't veg battle - weekends are hard work people!) So all this meant I was on the road looking anxiously at the clock trying to figure out if there was still time to get to a yarn store and which one. Problem resolved, I decided I was looking for silk. Well, this yarn store did not have silk that called to me. And I was good when called by a variegated mercerized cotton. But the Noro Kureyon, I was weak. It wasn't even the Silk Garden which has, you know, silk and could be said to fall into my predetermined category. Ah well. It's pretty. So pretty.
