YPF-The Jittery Version

This color had me jittery from the start! I saw this and kept putting it down, I mean I can order this stuff online, why buy it on my trip. Well, I went back and forth, and on and on..

When it finally found it's way home with me...I was much calmer. ;)

Sometimes I have no idea why colors can excite me..make me blush..hmmmm!


Hoping for some good sun this coming weekend! I have a few skeins of reddish yarns that need their proper exposure too!

Gorgeous - if I ever see that one, it'll probably come home with me, too!!
I love the Jitterbug colorways - I just wish they had better yardage...ACK!

Very pretty!!!

I think you did the right thing by giving that yarn a home!

I love that colorway too - I've been eyeing it in my shop (www.robynsnest.ca) - wanting a skein for myself!

Oh, that is beautiful!

Very pretty! I think your reaction to color means that you're a visually gifted person, along with all of your other gifts.

Oh, heavens. There's NO way you could have left that behind. You did the right thing, believe me.

You know, even though I had severe issues with Colinette and the Jitterbug, the socks I made from it are my favorite socks ever. So pretty! So squishy and soft! Have fun with yours. :)

I love this colorway and scooped it up when I saw it- I think it may be the next pair of socks that I make - enjoy :-)

Hey I thought you were going to be good!!!! :0) You did the right thing by giving it a home. You are always looking out for .the "homeless" yarns. I love the colors especially the purples. Good job Zonda

I saw and drooled over that very color at my LYS. Unfortunately, my "You already have way too much sock yarn at home!" side prevailed, and it was left at the store. Glad you got some though!

Well yeah it makes you excited, has the same effect on me!! lol Very pretty colors! :) I loves me some retail therapy, infact I had some today.

I understand the color jitters. The one time my 'you already have so much yarn' side prevailed, I have regretted my decision to leave said skein of loveliness at the store. Never again.

This is wonderful yarn. I'm doing a mitered project with it. The colors are mixing nicely.
