What's With The Zombie Yarn???

I had no idea that zombie-themed yarn even existed until yesterday and my discovery of the Zombie BBQ colorway from Lorna's Laces.  But a quick search on Etsy.com turned up at least two other zombie-esque yarns, including this awesome one:

Zombie Apocalypse by Out of Step Dyeworks

I love the gray/white/hint-of-yellowy-green mottled look with a splash of red thrown in here and there.  Why yes, I am dead and decaying, thank you very much.  And before I forget... BRAINS!!!  Chomp chomp blood spatter goodness.  

I had to search to see what people have knit using this yarn.  (Have I mentioned yet what a fabulous search Ravelry has?)  Check out what I found!  My favorite - socks!  And even better - Zombie yarn socks!

But I didn't buy it.  I want to.  But I didn't.  (Trying hard not to type "yet.")  It did go into my etsy favorites which gives me at least a sense that I did something about my yarn lust, but deep down I know it's a bottomless pit that I'll never order from because I already have a lot of sock yarn and just ordered Zombie BBQ yesterday.  

But if anyone is looking for a gift for me -  you know, just because you love me or maybe want to do a random act of kindness....  Click here to make me happy.
