yarn deprivation

Right now i’m between projects, my beret is finished (i’ll post photos of that and the vest as soon as i feel up to facing the cardreader, which will hopefully be tomorrow) and i’m waiting for a shipment of yarn. now, i thought this would be a good thing, focus on working for a few days, get in some good reading etc. not so. I have entered the advanced stages of yarn deprivations.-

yarn deprivation (deprivicus fiberus)

causes: going on for an extended amount of time without having a project to work on.

symptoms: excessive obsession with fiber, breaking concentration the moment you see anything that might possible resemble yarn (knitters suffering from advanced cases have been know to cast on for socks with angel hair pasta)

cure: in the early stages petting the yarn in one’s stash might help alleviate the symptoms somewhat, but this doesn’t last for long. the only know cure is to either go on a really good buying spree or cast on for a new project.
