It's at that moment, my DH chooses to call upstairs to me and I answer "WHAT!?!"...he than asks what is wrong and my answer is "I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO KNIT!!!!"...silence then he says "okay, it can wait". Smart man.
I looked at my stash again and found all this yarn my godmother gave me - DK weight mostly and then found a free (remember no credit card) pattern to sooth my itchy fingers so they could do something while I watched good football and fun commercials. All was right with the world again.
Last time this happened it was an easy solution - I cast on mittens for my nephew. However, I think I'll spend today re-assessing my stash and my queue and make sure this ugly scene never happens again. There is something to be said for having lots of WIPs.

Oh - he is a very good man. I hate it when you want to cast on something new and you have nothing to knit. BTW - Christine's Stay On Baby Booties are always a good fill with leftover fingering weight yarn. They're small, quick, and always good to have on hand when you need a baby gift. Since they're so quick - they don't require a big time commitment - just enough to get you through the Super Bowl.
Cute mittens! I hate that feeling of nothing to knit although I don't experience it often. Too many WIPs around here...
Love this story!Itchy fingers are so familiar to me!Sorry to hear about your credit card though :(
