How’d that get here..

I had a dentist appointment today.  They numbed the entire left size of my mouth, tongue and ear, and I was slightly out of it on the way home.  And I say slightly as in the Grand Canyon is a slightly large hole.  And I blame the absent-minded driving for somehow having ended up at Jo Anne Fabrics.  It was all a blur, but somehow I was walking into the shop — and then everything went blank. I don’t remember anything, not even walking up and down the aisles, looking at all the yarn.  Or deciding to get the bulky weight yarn over the chunky.  Or comparing the price of getting the whole “Knit Kit” vs buying the individual items, or counting slowly and decided that buying enough yarn for six projects was good.  Yeah, six projects good.  I don’t remember any of that.  But yet, when I got home, I was walking into the house with bag of yarn.  I think the Novocain really must’ve messed me up.

Ten skiens of sock yarn, two skiens for a scarf for my mother for Christmas, three skiens of bulky weight for a hat and scarf combo for me, the old half-finished scarf, and some skeins for some charity hats.  I’m determined to take this box, and only this box full of yarn to college, and I’ll replenish when I come home for Thanksgiving, but it’s seeming a tad small.  I’ve still got to fit this in there

Just in case I run out of things to knit.  I’ve never been to college before, so I want to be over-prepared for my first few months, and then I can adjust after that.  Plus, I like yarn.  The end :)

And regarding the Mystery Top, I’m just starting to make some progress on it after I assed it up.  I’ll post pictures of it after this weekend, as I am going to the lake for the final summer bash, The Beer Bash (that’s the legit name, I promise).  Pictures on Monday, when I will be trying to avoid the final packing.

Five Days Until College.
