Yarncrafters, a question... [View all]

I finally finished up gathering up all my yarns into one place, and am amazed at what I had squirreled away all over the house.

Mr Pipi thinks I'm a yarn hoarder. I told him it's part of the knitting/crocheting experience....having a stash, I mean.

Do you all have a huge stash too? Is it bigger than mine?

Anyway, here's a photo I just took...

Three of those organizer things full (meaning not just in front of the cubbyholes, but going all the way to the back). Below them is my white bag containing knitting needles of all sizes (bamboo dp, bamboo circular, birch straight) crochet hooks (bamboo), some metal Tunisian hooks, etc.

The mesh hamper to the left contains three large cones: cotton, Egyptian linen, and chenille yarns, plus some smaller balls, and a bag full of wool that I was making a free form something-or-other with.

How's your stash?




PS...do you organize by type or by color? I tried to organize by type
