This week's work
I'm dreaming of knitting new things, but before I start I need to get my yarn house in order.
My yarn & fiber are discombobulated & so is my knitting & designing brain.
So, it's time to clean up & clean out.
It doesn't hurt that, like everyone, money is really tight. There's little to no yarn/fiber buying this year, and I've canceled my plans to go to SOAR. So has Carla, we'll have a slumber party and spin :-).
Here's this week's task:
Sort out single/few balls
Sort out 'sweater's worth'
They get sorted into:
keep
maybe
give/sell
use in teaching kiddos
use in batt making
toss (too tangly or too little)
Here's my pile:
Bags and 1 bin of singles/few skeins
1 - 45 gal bin of 'sweater's worth'
Small boy for scale
Carla's coming over later to make sure I haven't lost my mind................

I'm feeling better about my own stash - thanks for sharing yours! Of course, I did buy mine 3 shiny new bins for Christmas...
I want that picture of the wee boy in a poster. I'll hang it on the back of my office door and whenever I need to laugh, I swing the door shut.
Now I want to come over and raid your stash, you have the best stash around and you know it!
speaking of yarn.....
is there any talk of converting your knitting designs (superb) into crochet patterns, for those of us who can't handle the 2 needle thing???
while mom still knits, i hate asking her over and over for stuff, when i can crochet just fine....
