I am cheap bastard

[afuna]

And quite cheerfully so.

When I first started knitting, I started off practicing with some dishcloths (link visible only to members).

I bound off the dishcloths, but I never actually cut the yarn. Meaning, if I ever get caught by an attack of cheapness, I can unravel all my work and reuse the yarn :x

(Probably to try out a technique from another dishcloth, like what I'm about to do right now).

This made me go from slight eye-rolling to unstoppable laughter. Send an ambulance.

Heeee. *sends ambulance (belatedly oops)*

Glad I could help *grin*

Cotton yarn really isn't all that expensive here. I could send you some if you wanted. (Says the person making an entire baby blanket out of cotton yarn for about $6US with an expectation of leftover yarn when it is finished.) :D

It's also great fun to go to charity shops and find a cheap sweater or three and unravel 'em and reknit the yarn.

Ooh. We don't have much in the way of cheap sweaters (too hot here for knitwear generalyl *G*) but that feels pretty clever *G*
