I spent a significant amount of time on New Years day finally cataloging all the yarn in the yarn closet which also now contains most of the yarn that had been in my sewing room before the youngest cat discovered the pleasures of fiber. For those of you on Ravelry, I also got it all posted here.
The whole process was really a little bit overwhelming although it did serve as a good reminder of all the wonderful things I have planned to knit with all this fabulous yarn. There will be much knitting from stash this year although I would be a fool to say I will not succumb to temptation either. I do however hope that having a record so easily accessible will help remind me that "I don't have anything to knit" is most certainly not at all true. Bad enough to admit that large as this stash is, it is still not all the yarn. There are bits and pieces hiding here and there in other rooms. I might consider coming clean and declaring all of it, or I might just decide that some things are best left behind closed doors.
Le sigh!!! Thse colours are like candy for the eyes. Happy New Year, Mardel!!!xoxo

Even though my fabric collection is bigger than my yarn collection, I'm still afraid of documenting it all. You are very brave;)

I've become like the crazy fabric lady - I cannot resist a gorgeous fabric (even in the absence of any pattern or ability to do something with it!). How wonderful that you've organized it all. Happy New Year, M!
