Stash Pride!
November 17, 2006 at 6:35 am (Crochet Talk)
Reasons to embrace your stash:
There is no guilt in buying yarn.
Remember that your stash also makes good insulation.
Yarn adds color to our everyday lives. The more stash, the more color.
Yarn is cheaper than therapy.
Moderate acquisition of stash helps ward off splurges and binges.
Stash acquisition helps support a dyeing/dying economy.
Supports and promotes cottage industries.
Yarn is better for the body than chocolate and won’t stay on your hips.
A well displayed stash can also function as art around your home.
Stash is like a scrapbook. Each skein has a memory tied to it.
Proud to be a knitter? Be proud of your stash — it is a knitter’s essence.
Be proud of your stash since you’ve worked hard to accumulate all those skeins.
Yarn is beautiful and should be cherished — just ask a spinner!
Because you CAN!
