excuse to buy yarn?

So I went on a major stash busting expedition & donated a whole lot of yarn to Soulful Knitting Ministries (they take scraps/half skeins/all of it) and I LOVE to shop so I am seriously looking forward to finding out what my secret pal likes! I really hope it's a new yarn I've never used before or an old favorite - I'm just excited to try a new pattern & shop for some new yarn. Really excited. There are so many scarf patterns out there & I do admit, I enjoy killing an evening surfing the internet for patterns and of course...yarn.
