Stash Bustin' Challenge

A week ago I joined Lanasdeana.blogspot.com's stashbustin' challenge.  I wanted to share this with all of you so that if your stash is getting a little out of hand like mine is for the space that I have, then this is the challenge for you.

Here are pictures of my stash. These are all my yarns that are in one location. I like the fact that I can see everything but not that it looks a little messy. For now this is what I have to work with.








These are yarns that I have stashed away in bags that are either leftovers or newly purchased. At the the moment I am working on getting these organized by type. I usually like to keep all the same type of yarn together. Unfortunately as you can see I still have a ways to go.


 

 
This bin holds projects that are already started. A friend of mine gave me 3 trashbags full of yarn and inside I found projects already started. They all seem to be blankets and afghans and unfortunately I don't like to work on those types of projects but hated the thought of frogging all of her hard work. The reason I kept them in here is because I truely hope to someday get the chance to work on one or more of the blankets and maybe finish.


These are my cotton stash. I usually use the size 5 and 10 cotton to crochet earrings and baby booties. The regular cotton I use it to crochet bracelets, hats, and bags and hopefully some dish rags!

  

These are my specialty yarns like eyelash, ribbon, lattice, chanille and several more. These I don't work with a lot because of how difficult it is to work with them. It's not easy to see the stitches when working with the fuzzy stuff.
 

 

Finally these are some of my leftofver yarn that I only have small balls of from different projects that I had made in the past. I have a plan for these but for now they are being kept mostly out of sight and I will let you in on my plans for this in the near future!

Well that's all folks! I will keep posting my stash busting projects to see how much of this I can reduce, if at all! Wish me luck.
