It's *not* wee yarn goblins!
It's the Fool.
There's been some discussion in comments of late about whether, in fact, knitters' houses are populated with small, mischevious goblins who flip balls of partly wound yarn off the ballwinder and tangle skeins.
That may be true. I'm not doubting that.
I'd also thought maybe they were responsible for some of the petty kleptomania that goes on, stashes of stitch markers that dwindle, a 20-inch #6 circ that was sitting there just a minute ago, where did that go, is it in the couch ... cat! Cat?! Bring it back.
Not so. Tonight, the Fool decided to clean out his backpack and it was all in there. Stitch markers, four (Four!) Addis of various sizes, a bamboo dpn and (mysteriously) a pair of toenail clippers.
So many questions answered....

I do like keeping the bamboo needle in my bag. You never know when you need a spare US 1.
Fool, get thee a knitting kit.
