You have a lot of yarn.....

My good friend, r~, visited this weekend. She is not a fiber person. When she saw all the yarn I had in my living room (in baskets, in project bags, and such) she said "You have a lot of yarn."

I laughed and pulled her up into the guest room and the full sized futon covered with canvas "under the bed" storage bags STUFFED with yarn.

She was appalled and accused me of being crazy.

Then I showed her my spinning bag. :-)

Little does she know. There was more yarn in the guest room closet; and the 'exotic' yarns in the dresser (that only r~ and I believed in!). I guess you could say she really only saw the tip of the fiber iceberg.

I even had a bag of yarn that a friend's husband picked up for me at a tag sale. It was mostly acrylic, but there was some Reynolds "Dream" that was real nice. Unfortunately I'm allergic to Mohair, so I sent it back to Missouri with r~ for a neighborhood acquaintance of hers who is a fiber gal.

It's good to spread the fiber love.
