Round and Round We Go 4KCBWDAY3

Make your own infographic to convey any element of your craft(s). 

I've always tried to be a monkey, tackling one mind-bending project at a time, but my dominant bee self won't seem to let it happen. I truly am attracted by bright shiny objects.

My biggest weakness is color [how very bee-like. ;)] I love to play with color. I tend to be somewhat methodical about my choices though. I'm not afraid to try new combinations. It excites me to see how colors play against each other, especially in unexpected groupings. But I have a hard time when it comes to the scrappy look. This really puts a damper on my stash-busting efforts. Hard as I try I always end up with some sort of a pattern or color scheme. Not very bee-like is it? Maybe it's my inner monkey fighting to get out?

Without fail, this happens every time...

    LOL, I am frugal with yarn and have a blast reading about those who are serial stashers and stash busters.

    I totally can relate to this....I am stash busting right now, to run colours out and then I feel sad because I like a particular colour and want to go out and buy it again!

    I had the feeling a lot of other yarnies out there would relate to this one :)

    Vivianne, If that's true then I must be in on the conspiracy! That would be self destruction at its best, or worst? LOL

    Hazel. I totally hear what you are saying! I feel a connection to certain colors and feel sad when they are missing.

    It's even worse when I have no control over it... I still haven't gotten over RH discontinuing celery over a decade ago! LOL
