Confessions of a Craft Hoarder

Ok, I hoard craft supplies, mainly fabric and wool. I have been -spending too much money- collecting for about five years since I really got into sewing & knitting.
I have just have a sort of of said hoarded fabric and wool and I am embarrassed (but also strangely satisfied) that I currently have in my collection; about 15 meters of various fabrics and 13 balls of wool. (plus a load of remnants and half used balls of wool)
I MUST not buy any more. I MUST get organised and get knitting/sewing.

Can anyone point me in the direction of some lovely online patterns/good blogs with tutorials on?

Haha bebemoojem, no, haven't bought any more wool but couldn't resist buying the second sublime children's book (with all the lovely fair isle in) and some 10mm artviva needles the other day!
Buttons though, I love buttons! I need more beautiful buttons.
A question about your epic wool stash....if your children would let you spend the afternoon knitting, which of your vast collection would you start on?

Buttons are my downfall. I have jars and jars. I love them and will probably die from drowning in them GrinGrin

Yarn wise i have a skein of Alchemy's Silken Straw in gold which I can't quite break into but I dream of making something Lacey and light with...
