I have been naughty

I am planning on not buying any yarn next year... So today I ordered some gorgeous sock yarn...:-)  Well, in my defence I figure that if Tony can spend £40 twice a month on the petrol to drive to the footie match (and that is on top of the cost of his season ticket) then I can spend £30 on some yarn... and it was so tempting.
I have ordered some West Yorkshire Spinners 4ply sock yarn.... and I could easily have spent twice that much.

Look how  nicely the current pair is coming along. This is another King Cole Zigzag yarn..

    That's a novel way to keep a New Year's resolution! I can get on board with that :)

    Oh I love yarn I have been tempted to get some new yarn I want to do some dish clothes and I am out of yarn. I have to wait until Mr. buys something so I can justify it LOL

      That made me chuckle... why do we feel the need to justify our purchases. I am exactly the same.

    Oh, I knit a pair of Scatterby Socks with that yarn in the photo. I sent them to a friend and she loves them. I've seen some of the WYS sock yarn that you ordered. It's gorgeous. I love the Christmas varieties that they sell.

      I think I need to buy some plain yarn today. I have a yen to knit a pair of cable pattern socks and it looks nicer in plain yarn

    That is fabulous yarn. I bet you enjoy knitting with it and just enjoy the emerging pattern!

      I love this sort of yarn. It stops me from getting bored when knitting socks.
