Well, I decided for now to get the fall/winter sock kit with patterns. I can only buy one at a time at that price, but eventually i will own them all (insert evil laugh)!
Well, personally, I think it’s terrible of them to make up these sampler kits!! What a horrible thing…to place so much temptation in front of us budget-minded knitters. Of course, they’re good prices for what you get—but I don’t need to spend ANY money on yarn just now, and am trying to knit from my stash! It’s just not nice of Knitpicks to do this!!!
I did something crazy. I just ordered a set of the new 10" straight needles from KP. That was a total extravagance that I didn’t need, but DH told me I could have it for my B-day, and I just couldn’t resist. OMG! I’m not just a yarn stasher, I’m also a needles stasher. I’ve got serious problems. :teehee:
I’ve been trying to figure out how to justify buying one of the samplers. I bought some of lace and fingering when they were selling off some colors, and I pick up lots of other stuff at the thrift store for about 50 cents a skein. Then I buy closeout stuff at Hobby Lobby. So I have more than enough yarn to knit for a year or two…
