My stash cupboard has been in a mess for a while now, you know you pull out a bag, shove it back. Everything is a jumble, open bags, no bags, loose yarn unravelling. I have bags of yarn all over the place. As I have a whole Friday to myself today I decided one of my first jobs was to sort my stash.
There is another good reason for tidying up. I got an email from
Wool Warehouse last night with an amazing offer, one too good to leave,
Drops Love You 5 100% recycled cotton -50gram balls for 80p each!!!!!!!!!!! I have to admit to buying 32 balls, well its free postage if you spend £25, and I don't feel guilty as 10 minutes after I bought it I received a cheque for £60, 2nd prize in the village monthly draw, bonus.
So this is what my stash looks like when all pulled out on a king sized bed
I have been very ruthless and had a good sort out, bagged everything up neatly. There is a large bag to give to
Sandra for the
Shoebox Appeal
Now my stash is neat there doesn't look anywhere near as much yarn ......wink wink
