Is there a reward for stash-busting?

YES!!!!
More stash:

How about this for a purse or hat?
Hmmmmmmmmm...

and this:
I do not know what for...
but how could I resist: it is linen and in this color???!

An irresistible just something so tempting and delectable that you know it's a just reward!

If you think I am done with dishcloths, I hate to break the news: I am not.
I still can't get enough of them!
This new stash will just simply have to wait.

    We are only human Astri, I mean to say is it our fault that yarn just seems to jump into our hands when we visit yarn stores haha love your new stash :)

    You have been such a great stash-buster that you deserve a yarn reward. That linen yarn looks divine!!!

      Thanks Ana! Oh, indeed...the linen was especially difficult to walk past.

    You certainly deserve some new stash; you've been working so hard! And I agree with Linda; it's not our fault when the yarn jumps into the cart on its own. Love the colors of the first one; can't wait to see what you make with it.

      You are right, I have been working hard! This crocheting is taxing business!!! These particular skeins were exceptionally aggressive. ;-)

    I can see that beautiful linen in a lacy summery wrap. That top yarn is like a small circus. It would make a really cute trim for something white.

    Yarn baskets, like nature, abhor a vacuum. :)

    (So do some housewives.)

      Oh my, that sounds lovely. With a cute sun dress, oh yes, I can see it now. Can I send you the yarn and will you crochet it for me? ;-)

      Very clever comment re: vacuum. You make me smile.

    My reward for stashbusting is that I save 10 kr for each ball I finish, no matter how much yarn there's on it. I plan to go to France for six months some time in the future, so that's an enormous reward :-D.

    But if that was't the fact, new yarn would definately be appropriate reward material :-)
