Having signed up for Secret Pal 11, I was notified by the lovely Christine of
Girl Interrupted that I am eligible to participate in her contest whereby I must post my stash for the world to see! I'm game! The prize is, SURPRISE! More yarn! Just what I need, of course!
The timing couldn't be better, because my Yarn Room just went from being trashy last week to organized to the point where I have a pretty good idea where everything is! Let's have a looki-loo!
First, you enter.....
and see a closet to your left..
a dresser to your right. On the bed .....
merino waiting to be hand dyed.
The basket of Bernat for baby blankets and sweaters. I keep colorful ribbon here also.
Log Cabin blanket for charity.
My treasured angora yarn collection.
a drawer of woolen orphans and odd balls.
under the bed lies many bags of wool and mohairs
more orphans and oddballs.
my highly prized collection of koigu.
50 Gram balls of sock yarns.
100 gram balls of sock yarns.
novelty yarn drawer-once loved but now forgotten.
some little kits and Adornments to add into my knitting.
Some small amounts of different colored Noro Kuryeon.
Inside the closet are several bins of dk, worsted, SNC dishcloth cotton, and several UFOs hanging in the rack.
The top shelf holds many bags of yarn designated for specific projects,
such as the Clapotis, and sweaters I would love to knit.
yarn just hanging out until the creative urge hits me....
Foreground, dk for a ripple blanket, a Cupcake hat, unfinished and my husband's sweater that he's been waiting many years for me to complete.
The 2 suitcases hold scraps and yarn samples from the mail. I'll knit something with them someday.....small baby sweater naps in the project bag.
lose up of the closet shelf. I paid $2 for the darker cones and the teal mohair cost $20. How could I pass that up?
Having fallen in love with these colors in this inexpensive yarn one day I began to knit mitered squares.....
Yarns that need to be swatched for scarves, a hottie cover, a clapotis, and the Einstein jacket.
These would made a terrific shawl, don't you think so?
Last summer's yarn dying experiments waiting to be knit into socks and hats.
Oodles of Cotton yarn to be knit into the Mason-Dixon Ballband!
Well, Gentle Knitter, that's my stash! I hoped you enjoyed the tour. Feel free to send me your comments and suggestions.
