Izzy was checking out the acquirements, or rather taking inventory of my new projects. The sale at stix-n-stitches was wonderful. Everything was on sale, including Noro (which I couldn't indulge in, wah), and Cascade, and notions. It was a knitter's dream and I was on a limited budget.

I did run into Julsey who we have exchanged emails but never met in person. I recognized her from Trek's sock bag. We had a blast. I met Karen a knitting co-worker and we spent an hour touching and dreaming about the yarns and future projects. So, now that Izzy has introduced my small stash purchase, let me elaborate.

BTW, Margaret text messaged me five minutes before the start of sale to pick up Lush for the button hat pattern which I emailed her the night before. Is there an acronym for stash related enabling?
