I so need to find someone who can knit for me, because whoa PIRATE SOCKS!! MORE pirate socks! ARGYLE pirate socks! FSM Pirate hat!
Also an UNGODLY number of kickass scarf patterns.
I'm going to have to suck it up and learn to knit eventually, aren't I?
ETA: Dear self. You need HALF A YARD of fabric for one particular scarf. Yes, this means that you have to suck it up and buy a full yard online, since no fabric store in the area stocks it and you need THIS EXACT FABRIC, NO OTHER WILL DO for this project. You don't need to order four more yards of not-exactly-cheap fabric to accompany it home. DO NOT. Might I remind you that you have SIX unfinished scarves at home already, to be done this weekend? This would bring the total up to SIXTEEN, and I don't think anybody needs that many scarves, no matter how awesome.
Sincerely, The Voice Of Reason
ETA2: Dear VOR. The fabric would be lonely. But you're absolutely right, five is a crowd. So there are only three yards coming home with me. In my defense, shipping was free, and the whole order was 20% off, making it cheaper than the fabric order I almost placed last week for a mere two yards. So I saved money! True, none of this fabric was the awesome pony print that was going to be destined for my inlaws, but they'll survive with camel-colored fuzzy softness. And...and...PURPLE!! Love, moi.
