Sometimes you have to make a mess to get organized. (This post is for you, Anna of Stitch Bitch!)
Too much yarn!
This is about half of my stash of yarn. On Sunday evening I dug out yarn from literally everywhere in the house and spread is across the living room. And then I viciously purged it. Okay, I really didn’t get rid of all that much. Mainly, it was balls of acrylic that I didn’t need that ended up in the Goodwill bag. They will actually find a good home at a nearby old folks home.
See that first bin in the front, that is one of two drawers that size that I have for sock yarn. I also have another bin with 12 more skeins matched to patterns. I have a problem.
And, yet, somehow after all of this, I didn’t find the two balls of yarn I was looking for. 🙁

Surely it isn’t possible to have too much yarn, just not enough space? I took one look at that picture and went all gooey – imagine the possibilities! When I’m setting up a project, I like to spread out my goodies too – not something I can do when other people are about. A x
Isn’t that always the case (pull out everything and not find what you’re looking for)? I usually end up re-discovering something I’d forgotten I have, and going off on a tangent and getting distracted from the original purpose 🙂
Wow. Now I see why you didn’t take any yarn from the boxes here last week!
Love your yarn stash.

That is a very impressive collection. I just keep wondering if you have a cat. My cats would be in heaven playing with all that but it would be a mess!
Thanks for humoring me!
