Unfortunately, since then my yarn buying has been rampant and my knitting has been lax. The combination is not good. No longer contained to its assigned Rubbermaid totes, my yarn fills drawers (leaving no room for my shirts), peaks out of reusable bags, and makes my partner-- a confirmed non-knitter-- distinctly unhappy.
The only solution is Year of the Yarn, version 2.0. Much yarn will be knit, but not purchased, by me between now and October 21, 2012. Results will be documented (really this time) here.
Stay tuned for Version Two's Project One (already on the needles!) to be posted. In the meantime, this blog may just be the best thing ever: http://www.yarnyuck.blogspot.com/ (Though I would both make and wear the dinosaur sweater currently on the first page.)
