Patwoman Goes Yarn Shopping
Only I didn't buy anything. How could I? If I buy any more yarn, one of the humans will have to move out of this house so we have a place to put it. I'm trying to be good. Trying to work through the stash...
But look at this. It's Yarn Bee Chinchilla. And yeah, it's a novelty yarn, but look at it! It's so cuddly and huge! I'm thinking, some #13s, a ball of Chinchilla, and an hour and you've got a scarf. The Hobby Lobby sales associate called it "Monkey Tail."
That's what it felt like.
Not that I've ever felt a monkey tail, mind you. (Although a childhood friend had a pet monkey when I was little, so I suppose there was the opportunity. I just never thought to do it. I actually never even saw the monkey up close--just once when his mom brought it for show and tell--because my mom didn't think it was a good idea to play with wild animals.)
But I digress.
I also looked at jewelry making stuff, since I do a little of that, too. And some bead making stuff (I had no idea a kiln was so small! I totally want one now. I want to make some of those glass frit pendants like M and I made last year during GenCon.)
And, of course, no trip to Hobby Lobby is complete without a little minor vandalism.
