Eighty Eight?!
Posted on Tuesday, August 11, 2009 in Life
Apparently. What you see there is the 88 balls of yarn I have somehow aquired, which since I’ve only been crocheting for about 18 months, works out at about 5 balls a month, excluding the ones that have been used, of course. It also doesn’t include the 4 balls of incredibly shitty acrylic I just tossed. Remember kids, cheap doesn’t always equal good.
So, since I am NOT buying yarn till I’ve used three quarters of what I have – I’ve 66 balls of yarn to get through. Hrm. Anyone need an incredibly long scarf?
Added bonus of stash sorting was the discovery of three hooks, several cards of buttons, fabric I’d forgotten about and a two piece frog pillow I pinned but never sewed. Score!
post the pillow!
Only 88? Are you on Ravelry? My stash has 214 entries. Some of that is fiber instead of yarn, but less than 25%. And some of those entries are multiple skeins, like the five skeins of wool/silk blend that I have for a sweater for me. It just keeps multiplying.
My god woman, you are my idol. I was on Rav, but I found that I was getting too involved in serious drama like the knitted cupcake thread. I.. still… have nightmares sometimes.
