Warning: knitting-centric post! Not for the uninitiated...
Juniper Fiberworks is selling all their "novelty" yarns for 50% off. These are the yarns down the center aisle of their store - the ones everyone went crazy over for scarves a few years back.
I wasn't moved by anything (lots of fancy eyelash and mixed blends) but turned the corner and fell in love with Berroco Zen,
a ribbon yarn of nylon and cotton, shiny and matte.
Since it retails for $12 a ball (for only 110 yards), this was the only way I was going to get me some. I got enough for the Montego Bay scarf pattern from Amy Singer that just became available on Ravelry. 
It's a fishnet-type pattern, very slinky and chic.
I'm dying to cast on, but I have three projects on the needles already. I get kind of anxious with too many projects started. That's definitely some sort of neurosis, because who is keeping track? but I can't deal.
So knitters, do you cast on when you get the urge, or do you hold yourself back and force yourself to finish the WIP's? What does it all mean?
