It fits our friend, Abigail, to a 'T' because her contagious enthusiasm for knitting has certainly touched my life schedule as well as my heart along with the friendships (and recently increased yarn stash) that have accompanied her. I'm so pleased to see you facing your phobia head-on and am thinking about your livingroom. I'm not sure it's the ultimate cure but it sounds like fun and certainly encompasses the essence of your five posted suggestions to overcome your stash phobia. Perhaps having it where you can regularly squeeze it will be good therapy, indeed, reminding you of it's patient (persistent) presence as you walk out God's plan in your life. Call me if you need help arranging it. I certainly want to help prevent a future breakdown at all costs! :-) Blessings, Chosen I like your definition of structured chaos!

There is a method to the madness (hence, structure), accompanied by a frenzied desire to take life by the horns (chaos). Example: The act of branching out by cramming a few years worth of knitting learning into a few months. Hey, what do you all think about lining my living room with shelves (okay, a small bookshelf) and pretending that I'm in a yarn shop? A good cure for stash phobia?

I'm not a huge stasher either. Small apartment, husband who doesn't really get it, and small budget, but....I do like having a few odd balls of yarn lying around. It lets me dream about what they could be. Sometimes planning the project is as fun as creating it! :) Too funny! I’m not a huge stasher either.
