At last... the day has arrived.
I have been dreading this day and putting it off to no end, but finally, I am tackling my gigantic yarn stash. I hope y'all can relate on some level, and take what I say to heart - nobody needs this much of anything in their life. This is overconsumption at its finest, and no I am not proud of it. But I feel so much better now that it's organized, and I am committed to working through it! I hope you enjoy!
Feel free to reach out to me in a more private setting with any questions, inquiries, or even just to share your lovely projects with me! I would love to see them:

You should do color themed videos to tackle that stash! Like "how many blue things can I make in a day/week" I would definitely watch those!!❤ have a nice day

@@BriStella I actually do have one video like that in the works currently! But yes, I would love to do more because that would be a great way to bust through the stash! Thank you for the idea🥰

What a great accomplishment! Now your imagination can run wild with all the projects you’ll plan. I had tamed the beast during COVID, but have gone amok since. I actually stopped crocheting and knitting for a bit, because I made so much and then nobody needed (or wanted) any of it. I have a new purpose making prayer shawls for a ministry and small doily butterflies to give away to random people. Because of the prayer shawls, Dollar Tree has a chunk of my money with their big skeins of Premier Yarn. I think I’ll be making shawls for the next year with the yarn I currently have.

@haileymiller8001 9 дней назад

This reminds me when I brought home most of my yarn that my grandma gave me. But I don’t have the space to show off my yarn so I bought myself a 27 gallon tote, 2 big suitcases, and some reusable bags for the rest of yarn. I have a tote that has unfinished projects and it’s something I’m planning to work on either the rest of this year and possibly next year. Along with my current projects. So I understand the struggle of organized yarn stash!

We had a yarn crawl last weekend and was really proud of myself for only buying 3 hanks for projects I have planned for. But I really got to just use out of my stash again. The struggle is real.

@lindastanley8729 8 дней назад

I ended up getting clear plastic bins with lids and put like weights and colors in each one . For each bin I laid all the yarn in that bin out on my bed and took a picture. Then printed the picture and taped it on the end of the bin so when I stacked them I knew exactly what I had. Also the pictures were saved in an album in my photos so I could pull them up at anytime and go to that bin.

@@Rebeccabebeify not sure if I'm the right person to answer this since I do have them so I may be biased, but I really enjoy them! With the amount of yarn I've shoved into them over the years, I think they've stood up fairly well. When they do pop out of place, they're very easy to snap back into their grooves. Plus they're pretty affordable so I'd have to give them a solid review👍
