Yarn Diet

Even after destashing all of my odds and ends, I have a lot of yarn. It may not be so much compared to some of the legendary stashes I've read about, but I think I have way too much. Since ebay is too much of a hassle and I'd have trouble saying goodbye to all of my yarn that way, I'm not going to buy a single thing until there's no yarn in my house. I can only think of one exception, which is the giant skein of TLC acrylic that I bought just for putting fuzzy bear ears on baby hats. That can stay.

I'm planning another destashing (this time for whole skeins!) with free mailing of yarn to those who might want it, but that may have to wait until we've moved. The hardest part about the stash is the lace weight yarn. There are some projects I'd like to make, but I'm finding that even simple lace patterns (like the pooling colors scarf and the cozy stole) need undivided knitting attention. The lace weight yarn may need to be adopted.

We're moving this weekend and there's so much work to do. The last two days have generated two rows of knitting on cozy. Hopefully I'll soon have knitting time again!
