L you have to get a copy of todays Seattle Times. There is a story about the stepmother in Carnation who starved her 14 year old sdaughter. In the story they mention she is a knitter and hordes yarn, she has enough yarn for 72 projects....can that make you crazy???

omg I hope not! I have way more than that!!!

you gotta read the article. They made it seem like the discipline measures were "normal" as the woman had a yarn hoarding problem, like that might be an acceptable defense. And we all thought "if the glove don't fit..." was the best defense ever!!!

we ARE in trouble - but if anyone looks at our children, I am sure they will see that they are not starving . . .

I looked at the Times article but I didn't see any yarn hoarding mention. Will have to look some more, because I may need this defense someday. And NO ONE in my house is even close to starving!
