My new year resolution was that I would go through my stash and allocate it all to projects. Well I kind of have managed this but have also fallen short.
I've gone through all of my non-laceweight yarn and allocated it to projects. Most of which are jumpers, there are a few scarfs and a few pairs of socks. I ran out of carrier bags though to put the various projects in individually so they have been dumped back into my trunk unbagged up but I'll be getting some more bags.
There was a large amount of odd or half balls which I've been clinging on to for well the stash sake of it. I've put all of this into a large black bin bag. Don't panic. I've decided that I'll be crocheting this into blankets. Anyone who has seen me crochet knows that I am well somewhat speedy when I get going so this half-sack will soon disappear into a FO.
The laceweight is going to take me somewhat longer to go through as I hadn't realised I had quite as much as I have! Once I have bought some more plastic bags I will go through my Jamiesons and my Cherry Tree Hill and that will have taken care of one-third of it.
Its times like this that I wish I had been born an octopus ;)
