Normally, I have a good solid mental filter in place when it comes to all the beautiful yarn we stock at Loop. I had to develop a bit of immunity to the 'ooh, shiny!' to stop myself from sinking absolutely *all* my wages back into yarn. However, every so often something new and utterly gorgeous arrives at the shop, the filter disappears and the urge to possess kicks in.
Ooh...shiny...

| Mmm, yarn |
This is BC Garn Semilla Organic Lace. The colours are amazing ('I want that one...and that one...that one, too...ooh, and that one!' etc.) and it's 100% wool laceweight, which I've been coveting lately since my stash is full of silk. Naturally, this knitter always wants to knit with what she doesn't have....

| Or..didn't have, any way... |
...and has very little self control. It's all very well having rules and yarn diets but sometimes a little flexibility makes for a very happy knitter.
