Your explanation of yarn was fascinating! I love how you articulated the feeling of yarn as raw material because it contains possibility! I can see how that might lead to the acquisition of it without definite plans to use it.

If you decide to write about why you love knitting itself, I'd be quite eager to read it. I didn't enjoy knitting much myself (though I did like crocheting) so I'm fascinated by the deep passion people seem to develop for knitting.
