CR obsessed

My itching for knitting with what I call "real yarn" is back and on crack. I day dream about it every hour I'm awake. I went to the The Needlepoint Joint last friday (i ditched school and persuaded my boyfriend to eat in ogden so I could coax him into the yarn store...which he loved! and said was the best yarn store he's been in) and it's by far the biggest yarn store I've encountered. I blame that for getting me on a "real" yarn kick and making me super depressed. I have an interview on friday for a part time job and I immediately tell myself..."money to buy yarn!" Which is sad sad because I have a soon to be 5 yr old who should come first and foremost.

I look at my stash of 100% acyrlic yarn and weep inside. I actually have no reason to cry so much about not knitting with "real" yarn because right now I'm knitting with 75% acrylic and 25% rayon from bamboo. It's smoooth as butta in my hands. I'm making motorcycle gloves from  the Luxe Knits book D got me for christmas.
It's actually more of a soft lavender color. My phones sucks at taking pictures of accurate colors.
Since I got home from school, 3pm, I have been reading Cirilla Rose's old ass blog posts from 2005 to 2008. Seriously 3 hours of non stop reading and I'n no where near done. I'm so obsessed with her and all her work it makes me more determined and needy for "real" yarn. Now off to finally feed myself.
the poor knitter
