Speaking of...I should make more....
Mandy, I'm ASHAMED of my yarn stash. It's insane. I have a gorgeous cable knit scarf with amazing yarn my friend got me for my birthday last year - half finished.
A ball of superwash black yarn I wanted to make a newsboy cap with, but got discouraged at the really difficult pattern.
A ball of gorgeous coral colored fingering weight cashmere blend (I think it's cashmere blend) to make THIS scarf, also for myself, cuz I love to wear scarves in winter. (The pattern scares me on that one too).
About 12 balls of soft yarn for a baby blanket I was knitting about a year and a half ago. I got a little ways into, traveled with it, dropped like 15378453 stitches, and torn it apart and never started again.
Plus a random assortment of "this is pretty" yarn. I can't help myself!

I have a huge cable knit throw project I'm working on right now for one of Jordan's sisters. I DEF bit off more than I could chew with that one.
Plus at least 3 other afghans I want to make for ppl. Thankfully those are like 6 hour ones, so they shouldn't be THAT bad. Fingers crossed.
