You Know You're Addicted to Knitting When ...

You have a room in your house devoted just to knitting. - Not yet, but I'd like to!

You buy yarn just because it's pretty, even if you don't know what you'll do with it. - I try no to do this, but I'm good at thinking up things to do with it!

You have been to at least one trade show (convention) or knitting camp. - Not yet. It's not until October.

You have spent over $100 on knitting (yarn/patterns/books) in one day. - Not yet.

You have lied to hide the fact that you have bought more yarn. - I don't lie about what I buy, thankfully.

You have put the name of a grocery store in your check register for the check that was for yarn. - What's a check register?

You try to beat your husband (or significant other) to the mailbox (so you get to the yarn deliveries first). - I always beat him. I'm home, he's not!

Most of your friends are knitters. - And if they're not, they will be!

You have called in sick to stay home from work to knit. - I'm blissfully unemployed, thank gods!

You have called in sick to go on a knitter's field trip. - See above.

You stay up at night to knit, even if it means you only get a few hours of sleep. - I've so done this!

The employees at the local yarn shop know you by name and have memorized you credit card number. - Not my credit card number (that'd be bad!) but they no longer ask for ID.

You get up in the middle of the night to work on projects. - I have. But only when I can't sleep.

You get up in the middle of the night to read online knit list messages. - I'm not -that- bad!

You knit and read at the same time. If you are unable to do this because of a complex pattern, you will forego the reading. - No, only because I don't read. But I do knit and watch TV or play computer games at the same time.
