I should not be allowed to go to Joann's. Ever.

I went back to JoAnn's tonight...the $1 sale was still going on...and I bought 40 yards of fabric. I should be good for the year now, right?

I'll try to post pics tomorrow.

I've had very little time to craft. But, I've finally made some progress on Starsky! It appears lunch breaks at work are good for more than surfing the internet! All the main pieces are sewn together and it looks great. Now all I have to do is finish the belt (56/65 in. completed thus far), knit the collar, and make belt loops. Piece of cake! :-P

By the way, the more I knit with Knitpicks Sierra, the more I want to dive headfirst into a swimming pool full of it. It's not the nicest yarn I've ever used, but it has grown on me big time over the course of this sweater.

I'm thinking it's a good thing I'm not allowed to drive for the next few days. That way I can't go find out if my JoAnns has it, too ^_~.

And there better be pictures soon, young lady ^_~. Gotta live vicariously here, you know ^_~

ooooooo. 40 yards of fabric?! Sounds like you made a killing!

I'm being won over by the sierra myself. I made a shrug out of it last year, and it has worn pretty well. I was impressed. Very little pilling.
