Gill, i can imagine just how hard that would be!! How do you manage to restrain yourself? |
Straitjacket and mask usually works pretty well - other than that, I have to hope that someone will save me by buying it - sometimes I'm better at it than others.
I'm trying to resist the new Dragonfly Sea Sock that I'm about to upload

LOL! That's a bit Silence of the Lambs, do you have a nice chianti with your yarn? My bank balance thanks you for not even mentioning the Dragonfly Sea Sock until after I'd placed my order, that would have very easily fallen into my basket. Or perhaps you did it deliberately so I couldn't save you from it and you'd have to cast on ...
I have no secrets here where sock yarn is concerned I ordered the Exotic Pool that I resisted so well yesterday, and some Jungle Mirage, and some Panda Cotton in Granite. Well, no point ordering just one thing now is there?  _________________

I know! I'm really rather excited about it Mind you, if you hadn't mentioned the Exotic yarns in the first place I wouldn't even considered ordering anything at all!
How's your Easter sock coming along? Do we get progress pics? _________________

I wish I could be that sensible, finish off a pair before I properly embark on another Looking forward to seeing your finished Posh ones, and the Exotic ones too whenever they're ready for inspection  _________________
