I'm surprised Noreen didn't suggest this - see if you can get
your husband interested in spinning - then he can spin yarn for you
to knit with!

A thought - if you can get him to 'mention' what articles he might be
interested in working on in the near future - then you can be on the
look out for yarn that would suit (and/or have an appropriate amount of
yarn available). . . plus hitting yard sales and 2nd hand stores looking
for cheaper (but not necessarily 'cheap' yarn - you can sometimes find
really expensive yarn for pennies!) additions to your stash.

Just had another thought - check out nearby stores (or on the net) for
clearance yarn - many times you can find some real bargains this way too!

Good luck
