Finding the Stash
|

First of all, thanks to everyone who sent me their warm well-wishes for a speedy recovery. It's going slowly, but productively. In another couple of months, I should be fairly back to normal.
That brings me to the subject at hand; my secret stash is no longer a secret.
I was at PT all week. Meanwhile, my husband has taken on the project of re-sanding all our wood flooring and installing it in the rooms that did not yet have it. Every closet had to be emptied.
Every closet.
And I wasn't there to protect myself.
So, it happened. A closet was emptied, the yarn stash starting rolling out and it kept on rolling. Then, there was the next closet...
Now, my dear, sweet husband (who I'm sure is reading this!) knew about my yarn...issues. OK, so he calls it yarn...problems. To-may-to, to-mah-to. But I'm pretty sure he didn't know the extent of it. When he cleaned out our bedroom closet, he sure found out. I truly can open my own LYS.
I didn't even remember there was so much. There are whole boxes filled with the same dye-lot yarn--maybe 5 or 6 boxes. Alright, maybe 25 or 26. The point is, I have a lot of yarn, but I actually forgot about it over time.
Ergo, in honor of my loving, understanding husband who would never ask me to get rid of my yarn, I'm asking all of you to check your yarn stash. See how it's doing. Please help the yarn fulfill its destiny. Here are some articles to help you out:

Good Luck!
