Knitters, I have a stash full of extraordinary yarn that I don’t use because I feel like it “deserves” an extraordinary project using difficult techniques.
I know this is foolish.
Please, knitters, remind me that it’s ok to use the good yarn, even for garter stitch, just because I want to.
It’s perfectly acceptable to use yarn for knitting. Good yarn for simple knitting, and even scrumptious yarn for basic knitting.
Do you have any advice for what to do with a stash full of odds and ends, like 10-25g each of 3-7 colors?
It’s absolutely OK to use everday yarn for garter stitch, I think about the pleasure I have while making every one of them, since extraordinary yarn is often so nice to touch.
Sometimes extraordinarily lovely things come out of garter stitch with great yarns. Dooooo eet!
I mean, otherwise, what’s the point of having all that awesomeness and not using it? Everyday items in truly amazing yarns seems rather luxurious to me, frankly.
