web-goddess: Sock Extravagance

Thursday, August 21, 2008

You know, whenever I start to feel bad about spending my discretionary income on knitting stuff, I just remember that there are people in this world who actually sign up for a lottery just for the privilege of dropping $300 for eight skeins of sock wool. And wow, next to them I feel downright thrifty!

It's no joke. LIke Kris, I often feel a pang of ...something... when I go to get a ball out of my yarn stash. Let's call it embarrassment. And sometimes people say things on Rav that bring it home to me that I do have a lot more discretionary sending than a lot of other people. But nearly $40 a ball... I'm not in that race!
