  It was the last thought before I went to sleep and the first thought when I woke this morning:  I'm going to& nbsp; rip out the cat bed and start over,  again. nbsp;
nbsp;  It's uneven,  and I don't like it. nbsp;  I had some trouble with an increase on that tight side. nbsp;
 This is my first project with increases,  and it kind of doesn't help that I have the eyelash to contend with ( at least that's my excuse) nbsp;  So,  I've decided it would be best to&
nbsp; rip out now while I have only 8 rows,  rather than let it continue to bother me through the next 8 or 16 or 32,  then rip it out.  & nbsp;
 Last night,  I looked again for that dishtowel book that a woman at work had given me. nbsp;  I know it should be on the bookshelf,  but this time I even looked inside of other books. nbsp;
 Still no sign of it. nbsp;  Would I really have gotten rid of it? nbsp;  Surely,  not on purpose.
nbsp;  While looking,  I did rediscover a book that my mother- in- law had given me as a housewarming gift,  called urlLink Confessions of an Organized Housewife .
nbsp;  I think she gave it to me more& nbsp; for the " organized"  part than the "
housewife"  part. nbsp; nbsp; I haven't read much of it,  though I have glanced through.
nbsp;  Overall,  there doesn't appear to be& nbsp; any earth- shattering information in the book.
nbsp;  It's comprised mainly of information on organizing the home,  from Kool- Aid packets to yard tools. nbsp;  There's even a few recipes and schedule ideas.
nbsp;  Last night,  I looked to see what Ms.  Schofield had to say on the topic of yarn. nbsp; nbsp;
She said:  Skeins of yarn can be stored very decoratively. nbsp;  Open baskets full of yarn add a warm,  charming look to a room. nbsp;
 Or,  hang up a wooden wine rack and store colorful skeins of yarn in each compartment.  Large,  round cardboard ice cream cartons.  can be stacked on their sides on a shelf and used as bins for extra skeins.  That&
nbsp; wine rack idea was also& nbsp; on Wendy's urlLink Top 10& nbsp; Unusual Places&
nbsp; to Store Yarn list recently. nbsp;  Ms.  Schofield would surely be proud. nbsp;
 Not that I imagine the two suggestions are connected.  & nbsp;  Well,  onto ripping!
