the big issue (first world problems edition): not enough yarn
Last weekend, I dropped a wad of money on yarn for a long-term knitting project.
I've ordered 4kg of Shetland yarn; it will require hours of processing even before knitting.
It's 'yarn in oil' so you *can* knit it as-is, and wash it after knitting, but honestly it's not very nice to knit with as is, and much nicer after washing the skeins.
Said yarn is probably going to sit at Robert's office, while I'm in the colonies, yarnless and unable to reach it.
I can take another project, but with all the glitter of the new, it was the *new* project I wanted to take with me to the colonies.
