Mica The Magpie – Greed:
Mica is greedily hoarding every yarn and every pattern she can find. And don’t let me start about the trinkets. Stitch markers, buttons, scissors and all the little knitting and crochet accessories, she just wants them all!
– Mica, it will take two lifetimes to use all of that yarn. Don’t be afraid that you will lose your precious yarn, just think of all the beautiful garments and accessories that you will make!
