I solemly swear I will use up my stash.

I HAVE COME TO A DECISION.

I solemly swear, on my favorite yellow 7mm straights, due to rent and tuition, that I am not going to purchase any more yarn (save for Cascade for the S.L.A.) until I have at least some type of incoming cash flow. Yes, that's right. It's all working with what I got from here on out. And since, as we've already seen, what I've got is quite a lot, this shouldn't be a problem.

In other knitting knews, I am almost finished the mohawk toque for my brothers (very much passed) birthday. I will post pics when it is finished. It's in the wash right now, hopefully felting quite successfully. I am a bit concerned about it, because while it is 46% wool and 15% alpaca, it's also 39% acrylic. I could be totally screwed, re: the essential mohawkian fringe.

Hopefully it all works out.

There's quite a bit of bulky red and black Van Dyck left over from it, and I am considering making some seriously heavy duty mittens. Though I do have other mitten plans for the leftovers of my Stupidly Large Afghan. I want to make a pair of these but instead of orange and yellow, I want to use as much as my leftover yarn as possible (so, all eight colors) using the grey from the border as the main color. Fair Isle fun for everyone!
