Oh my, what a month of acquisitions September was.
Best to get it all out of the way, like ripping off a bandaid!
In: 54 x 50g balls (those darn Wollmeise lace skeins are a whopping 300g each!!)
Out: A measly 7 x 50g balls (I blame an excess of sock knitting this month, and a temporary desertion of the knitting mojo. And while starting a new project every day for 7 days was heaps of fun, it doesn't use as much yarn as you might think!)
YTD: 175.5 x 50g balls. An even bigger oh dear than I've said previously...
I don't know if this is going to help my stash problem but I've decided to do Blogtoberfest this month too! Peer pressure! So many of my blog and real life buddies are doing it, I figured I may as well join thetorture fun!

Holy moses. I'd forgotten about the Wollmeise.
Dear oh dear oh dear.
I love that you are doing blogtoberfest. Freaking love it.
Wow what a lot of beautiful yarn you acquired in one month! I am so jealous. I joined in blogtoberfest too so hopefully it will get me blogging more.
All that glorious colour! And all that distraction from blogs for the month... cool. I'd do it, but it's the crazy time of year for me and I'd just blog 'help, help, help' every day!
OMG OMG OMG look at the beauty and gloriousness of the WM - and that onsanely beautiful blue/aqua next to the equally beaiutiful bluepurple
Envy (1000000000)!
Pooh - whats 87 kilos or yarn between friends (just thought I'd put it in context for you!)LOL!
you know, you're technically classified as a yarn store now ;)
enjoy, guilt-free - life's too short to pass on Wollmeise!
Oh, great news for us! Every day! Yay! The pics of the yarn are beautiful! Hey, if you don't get around to knitting with it, you can use it for decorating!
Can I book to come over and roll around in the WM...stunning.
Oooh, what a lot of lovely yarn, what's your secret to getting all that Wollmeise???
So glad you're doing Blogtoberfest too, I'm really looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with everyday.
I'm so pleased you've joined the Blogtoberfesting. What a pleasurable month it will be for us readers.
And the Wollmeise is so beautiful. Just take pleasure in it.
But it is so pretty, you must have just been dazzled by its beauty. I am sure that doesn't count!!!
So that's where all the Wollmeise went! It's at your house!!
Love those photos. Makes me want to crochet something nice.
Good luck with Blogtoberfest. I'll be sure to read every post.
Really pretty acquisitions. And October will be over and done before you know it. It sounds daunting but it's not as hard as all that. You're a creative person, you'll be spectacular.
I'm in line right behind jp to wallow in the Wollmeise. What GORGEOUS colors!!
I'm so glad you'll be doing Blogtober Fest. I'm going to jump in later today.
Oh that first photo is so beautiful!
Like I said to Bells I'll stick to just trying to read your daily posts - my attentions will be towards Socktoberfest
I'm still too chicken for blogtoberfest, but can't wait to see how you do!
