I am totally not allowed in yarn stores, either.

And when I break that rule: I am not allowed in yarn stores with my debit card. I must bring cash only, and therefore my purchasing is capped at the pre-established dollar amount.

I have better luck sticking to rule 2.

Also, scarf pics when you have them! I can make everything else in the world except scarves and blankets. For some reason, I have never mastered crocheting a rectangle.

I think I need to adopt rules one and two for myself. They would help my financial stability.

Also, rule 3: THRIFT STORES HAVE YARN.

Let that sink in.

PS -- You wouldn't want to trade a knitted scarf for a crocheted hat (or handbag? or shawl? or halter top?), would you? That way, we might appropriate some purpose to our yarngasms.

Do you have an item and/or color preference?

I like blue! Otherwise, I am open to anything.

What kind of scarf are you thinking? The one I just bought material for is a really pretty cable pattern, if you are into cables at all - it is here.

I could also do a wider sort of scarf, with a flatter surface. I picked up a fun pattern a while ago that has a bunch of different texture types that one can use for scarves. You can see some photos of how it looks with kind of a mish-mash of textures here.

Or if you see something (a pattern or just a picture) somewhere, I could (probably) replicate it.

I read "Yaaaaaaaaarn" but my brain said, "Braaaaaaaaaaains."

Odd coincidence, no?

I'd love to see some of your (and Tori's) knitting creations. Please to be posting.
