You know you're a bit knitting obsessed when...

...it's snowing heavily and you shovel out the driveway and car so you can get the new cable needle out of a bag in the car 'cause you need it for the hat you're knitting.

...while you are out shoveling, the 3 year old finds your knitting and pulls it apart. I'm grumpy over that but I can rip back and redo.

I feel like these entries belong in one of Yarn Harlot's books! Jeez Louise -- I've had all these ideas for "easy" Christmas presents and none of them is going as planned. The scarf I was going to knit out of foofy novelty yarn has a massively tangled ball. The hat (the WIP that my son took apart) has seen a few incarnations already. My 12 year old neighbor down the street is knitting novelty scarves for $10 each to raise money for her friend's gift. Maybe I should just order a bunch from her!

..or give up and just get gift certificates!
