So much for the de-stash...

The Knitting and Stitching show took place in the RDS this past weekend... I may or may not have forgotten all notions of a de-stash...

There were lots of scrummy Irish hand-dyed yarns from Dublin Dye Company, LHogan and Hedgehog Fibres, but I think my favourite purchase was this...

... a set of 1.5 mm circular needles. Just because

  1. Meh who needs a destash anyway? You needed some new yarn now that you are a famous television knitter. I love the look of that grey hedgehog fiber cashmere. And those needles are silly! I own a 0.75mm crochet hook but that's allowed cos it's crochet and it's for beading. But those needles are so tiny...

  2. I saw you running past me with a bulging bag, lamenting your lack of control, but, I have to say, you did also look extremely happy, so it's all worth it, I think!

    That's a wonderful selection of yarn. I can't see one thing I don't want, myself!

  3. Ya! that'd be the size of some people's stash, not a lapse in de-stashing!

    Enjoy all purchases, guilt-free, however; you bought them to enjoy them so you owe it to yourself to do so!

  5. I still haven't watched that TV clip & I never will!
    Strange; it's usually me enabling other peoples' stashing habits :)
