Now to get the skien count down. It went up yesterday as a staff member gave me 2 garbage bags full of yarn. I'm not keeping all of it. Some of it I can't help but keep as it is really nice and some of it is MOHAIR!!! Yes someone gave Mohair away. Over here in my world that's insanity and for the recipient a gift that you don't pass up. You keep the Mohair. It's around 20 skiens of Mohair. Skien count before addindg in the yarn given to me: 80. I will be thinning out again.
