Life, Knitting and the Pursuit of Roller Coasters

I’ve been notably absent again. It’s all Ravelry’s fault. If I’m not trolling the boards, or joining a zillion groups, I’m entering stash. I’ve dug through all the living room stash (sock yarn). I’ve made it through the stash that had taken over much of the second bedroom in my apartment. And tonight, I’m tackling the stash that lives in the second bedroom closet. “Tackling” has resulted in, well, a pile. A big pile. That photo just encompasses what has been entered so far. The closet stash is at least as big.

Once all the data is amassed, I’m going to seriously have to figure out a better storage plan. Fortunately, I’ll have half of a sizable closet to work with once I pull it all out.

There are some yarns that won’t make the “stash” too. There’s already a 20 gallon rubbermaid box that is filling with half skeins and leftovers. There’s a grocery bag full of partials from dishcloth cotton. And there’s a scrap basket of sock yarn leftovers. Enough of all of those that I will be starting some longer term scrap projects soon. I am certain that lots of ballband dishclothes, log cabin everything, and doll clothes galore are all in my future.  For now though, I’ll be spending the weekend digging out. If I don’t surface for a while, come yell at me to blog, I’ll be on Ravelry.
