Stash post (6/7)
As I mentioned last time, I have finalized totals on the stash now! \o/
| Yarn weight | Grams |
| Bulky | 3610 |
| Worsted | 6876 |
| Wool-Ease | 2290 |
| DK weight | 800 |
| Sportweight | 2540 |
| Sock weight | 5015 |
| Fingering weight | 860 |
| Laceweight | 3335 |
| Total | 25,326 |
I'll continue keeping tabs on it as I go. I have one week before my 30th birthday, and on September 26, whatever totals I've got, I'm going to try to be down to half that number by my 31st birthday. As of September 26, 2008, all previous goals are declared null and void -- it's all about destashing, baby!
Destashing 12,663 grams of yarn is gonna be tricky. No argument there. The key may end up being making sheep. A lot of sheep. Or hats. I'm only sorry more of my stash doesn't lend itself to sweaters, but it does seem to be mostly two or three balls of any given yarn. Still, I'm not going to let myself get discouraged! I think it can be done. In the first eight months of 2008 alone, I made 39 projects entirely out of stash yarn, including three shawls and a sweater. I can do this!
In the meantime, how about some more stash photos? We have 70 to go, and I'm not going to do them all in one block shot -- we've got one more stash post to go (so I'll be finishing right around my birthday, excellent timing). Let's start with sock yarn.
