The old, post 9 (the unkindest cut)

I have a problem with cutting yarn.  When you cut it, you commit to using it in the way it's currently in use FOR EVER.  Well, admittedly, you can unravel and re-use cut yarn but then there is some waste.  Plus, there's a bit of waste every time you start a new strand.  As a result of this problem, I end up carrying over yarn where I should have cut it and started anew.  

I have to get over this habit.  It creates a bit of a mess inside the garment, it creates loops to catch one's fingers and shirt buttons on, and most importantly, it opens up the possibility of having a vertical float that it too short and bunches the fabric.  Ugh.  

So, I will need lots of extra yarn for this project, if only to assure myself that it is okay to cut the yarn every time I change colour.
