and, they may be expensive (handdyed, handspun) but at least they are actually unique – unlike the yarn shown above. I am a hello kitty fan, but i would never buy crap yarn just because it had a hello kitty label on it!

For MONTHS I’d been obsessing over a $120.00 sewing machine in pale green color emblazoned with HK’s facade. I thought it was the cutest thing. I’d go to the store (name witheld to save the innocent) and just stare, or hug it. …

At least I always had the sense to save what money we had for better things. You know, like food… or bills.. or an emergency. (See, right now, I don’t NEED a sewing machine. I just wanted that one. Its not like I’m going to need the damned thing to darn a sock.)

When I proclaimed that HK and her Sanrio friends were not allowed in the house, my husband rejoiced as he could see me slipping into that HK dementia if given the chance. (I had also spied some bento boxes I wanted…and the toaster for some odd reason… even the floor buffer… and we don’t even eat toast or hardwood/tile floors!!)

Thank you, a billion times over.

– I also hope your wife snaps out of it, but I don’t think that’s even possible at this point in time.

it’s handspun with the hello kitty beads placed in by hand with Swarovski crystals.

and talk about expensive! $45! granted it’s handmade, but wow.

I got a link to this blog from a knitting website. Never before have I kinda wanted to go to hell before. I get that this is just regular yarn with a cute label, but I’m still gasping for air and desperate to find it online anyway. I’m scaring myself.

Your wife is a lucky lady.

I’m a knitter, and the combination of obsessive-knitting-to-the-point-where-the-yarn-stash-has-its-own room and Hello Kitty fanaticism is, to be frank, beyond disturbing. A knitter AND a Hello Kitty fan?! Quelle horreur!
