Are you a hoarder of yarn and/or other craft knick-knacks? (Be honest now!) cat_blaugh

I'm a hoarder in general. razz

I tend to be afraid to throw away stuff, just in case it comes in handy later. Often, when I do throw stuff away, the very next day I think of it of a use for it and need it too. >.<

If I had cash, I'd hoard lots of different colours of yarn - just to have them available, but I think it's more practical to buy and use as needed since I don't want to clutter this space any more than it is. ^_^

As for knick-knacks, no. Tools? Heck to the yes! I have a crimping tool for beads - never used it. O_o

Having inherited other people's yarn stash, I would call myself a yard hoarder. But I am constantly working on projects and my stash is shrinking. cat_eek Oh no! Yarn stash shrinking? Never!!!

And I am with Dana. I always end up throwing away the good stuff that I don't realize is the good stuff. Why can't I ever throw away the stuff I'll never use. lol.

I have all kinds of tools that I do plan on using, but in short I love all crafting tools. One of my faves is a Crazy-Daisy Winder. It's one of the vintage ones I found on eBay. I haven't used it yet, but I love it. I have tons of other stuff but I can't list it all. cat_rolleyes

♪♫ definitely.

I have a box filled with yarn that I haven't really touched yet.
but it's mostly craft stuff in general:
I have coloured paper. card stuff. glitter.
scraps that I say I'll use but they just end up sitting in my scraps corner.
I have bracelet making thread. And yet, if I can get more of the stuff mentioned - I will.

and then there's the part where I really don't like to throw stuff out.
it was funny. but not anymore. I need my space.
either I think I have a sentimental value to it
(and sometimes I do, sometimes it's just "really? that actually means nothing to me but my mind is telling me it does so I'll keep it.")
or I tell myself I'll find a use for it yet.

but yes. I'm pretty sure I am a hoarder.
I just cleaned out my room.
I found a lot of stuff I don't need - which I threw out, that was harder than I thought.
And I still have my scraps and yarn and thread and paper and glitter that I'm sure I'll use eventually. mrgreen

Oh! I have beads too. I don't make beaded things sweatdrop

Perhaps we crafters and just all hoarders. blaugh

Do you think we do something like how they do stuff on Ravelry and do like some craft swaps?
