Maybe they just want to keep all the yarn to themselves and it makes them crabby when people come in to buy it all up? That's my only theory so far.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16246323377929476660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5129935762536505931.post-27523319818108070932009-04-16T11:00:00.000-05:002009-04-16T11:00:00.000-05:00Human hair?

(Somehow, I don't think crocheters care about that sort of thing.) I have a nostepinne, but usually end up winding my yarn around my fingers ... <br /><br />Some yarn store employees are cold and mean! Perhaps they have social anxiety, too? But how anyone can be mean around yarn is beyond *me*. If I were having a bad day I could just rub my face on the fuzzy skeins and feel better (and be fired probably).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5129935762536505931.post-37739929011044049332009-04-16T09:59:00.000-05:002009-04-16T09:59:00.000-05:00Thanks Christine!

I can usually only manage to have one room clean at a time. :)<br /><br />Allison...the yarn I bought comes in a skein like this:<br /><br />http://www.ehow.com/how_2087733_wind-yarn-skein.html<br /><br />And it has to be wound or it'll get all tangled. That's what I get for buying fancy yarn!

Kind of a dumb question, sorry.<br /><br />And man, social anxiety. I totally have it, although it's gotten much better in the last few years. Most of the time, I feel really awkward, like Mary Katherine Gallagher, and want to stick my fingers in my armpits. But nothing like the panic attacks I used to get before I got help for depression.Allison the Meephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13187106256908781163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5129935762536505931.post-59355742642010173022009-04-15T20:26:00.000-05:002009-04-15T20:26:00.000-05:00stuff made from human hair! woman, am i curious to...stuff made from human hair! woman, am i curious to see that! <br />i hear you, with the social anxiety. being alone is just so relaxed, and people are often not. one of my sweetheart's favorite quotes is: "hell is other people", some famous writer said. a. e. poe? i don't know. <br />i didn't even know that there are yarn winders. i could have figured, but i also CAN DO THAT MySELF, courtesy of mom, use your knees if Dad isn't there to hold the yarn. no one ever asked me to ball the yarn for me! i look forward to seeing your yarn balls ;)<br />i'm reading your back entries here, and oh, what a pretty living room! holy canole. i can barely believe that the before/after is the same room. you're themistress of interior decorating. anyone challenge me on that?christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10115517992880481373noreply@blogger.com
