I am addicted to expensive yarns - Oh_hunnihunni - 24-02-2020
... you know, the ones that Spotlight et al do not stock. The gorgeous colours, the pure fibres, the careful spinning, the ones from distant exotic lands.
The yarns that make all the effort, the hours, and the love that goes into the finished piece truly worth every single bit.

Its normal. I've been known to buy expensive fabric, purely for the ownership, knowing full well I will never cut into it. Sometimes I like to take it out of the cupboard just to touch it and admire it. This is not weird in any way (no, its not!). In the grand scheme of addictions, its relatively minor and harmless.

I wouldn't worry too much - we all have our little idiosyncrasies.
The world is a weird place. And humans are crazy.
