What do you collect?

I recently realized that I collect knitting "stuff." I like the gee-gas that go with knitting. But the yarn. The yarn! I love gorgeous yarn. It really started when my knitting friend gifted me a 27 gallon tote full of yarn. Because before then I was buying yarn just to knit it. But now I'm stashing all kinds of yarns. And I like the good stuff.

LOL! My mom collected yarn too. When she passed a few years ago there were tons of it. And the colors were gorgeous. We had so much fun rolling it all into balls before we donated it all to a local nursing home!

I wish I could knit! I have zero hand eye coordination. It makes knitting, crocheting, video gaming and playing sports a damn near impossibility, LOL.

My mom knit my dog two sweaters this winter--they are lovely, the dog prances around in them like she is wearing designer duds, and they make me think of my Mom. Cool :)

"And I like the good stuff." Love how this once-budding adventure in knitting has become a part of your life.

I have a friend that is like that as well. I don't get it... probably because I have no idea HOW to knit, or crochet.. or even tie a damn knot! (just kidding on the last one)
