Today I went on a shopping trip to Patternworks, a knitting store in New Hampshire, with
tpau and
rufinia. It's a 2 hour drive.
I spent $131.42.
I bought:
6 balls of Wildflower DK - 2 white, 4 red, for making a Christmas present for my mom
2 balls of Richesse et Soie - both purple, for making gloves for myself
the glove pattern
The Knitters Handy Guide to Yarn Requirements
two sizes of needle point protectors
locking ring markers
needles - double pointed 7" plastic in sizes 2 and 5
the Denise Interchangable Knitting Needle set
So, phew.
On the way home, stopped at Walmart and bought some of those personalizable tags for putting in things you make, y'know, that say, "Handmade with love by" and you put your name in. :)
Can someone (
flyingindie) remind me of what the clinical term for compulsive shopping is?
flyingindie came through - it's oniomania!
EDIT: I WILL be making this. Oh yes. It will be mine.
