13 skeins. For another Retro Prep.


Plain cotton. Maybe for a shawl?

3 skeins. I'm thinking a top-down Faroese shawl.

Mission Falls 1824 Wool



The last surviving skein after knitting Rogue and Backyard Leaves.

Baby Ull



I started a pair of gloves for my younger son from this last winter. I made them way too small so I frogged them.

Interlacements Periwinkle Petite



From the yarn swap.

Lion Brand Kool Wool



I got these 2 skeins to try out the yarn. I'm thinking a basic scarf.

I bought this one skein of Wild Raspberries on clearance. I love this yarn and the colors so much that I want to make sure I create a very special project for it.

Blue Moon Fiber Arts Mystery Yarn



I found this little cutie in the clearance bin of Farmhouse Yarns in Beaverton, OR and thought it needed to come home with me.

Socks That Rock



The wonderful Kaci and Tina of Blue Moon Fiber Arts gave these "oops" skeins to me and my knitting pals on our trip to Portland.

Mountain Colors Bearfoot



I'm planning on knitting the newest sock pattern from Nancy Bush with this.

Mission Falls 1824 Cotton



5 skeins in 3 colors.

Rowanspun DK



These are the leftovers from my Retro Prep and two skeins Greta sent to me.

Manos del Uruguay



I think of this skein as more of a pet than actual yarn. It's image graces my banner. I may never knit it.

Noro Kureyon



2 skeins #115, 1 skein...I'm not sure.

Meadow is being used to knit Marianne.

A discontinued 50/50 cotton/wool blend from Brown Sheep that a friend found at a garage sale. I dyed it over a year ago using cake colors and ended up with pastel Easter colors. I originally planned on knitting bpt with this.

Rowan All Seasons Cotton



21 skeins in assorted colors. I've been collecting these to make an afghan. So far I've knit one square.

2 skeins of Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud. I started the Faroese Shawl from A Gathering of Lace with this but had to frog it when I realized my center panel was off-center.

Cotton-Ease



The ubiquitous Cotton-Ease, 7 skeins 1 skein pink, 6 skeins blue.
I bought this a while ago. I was thinking about a summer Rogue. Or maybe Katy or this lace-edged cardigan. Aw, who knows?

This Can't Be Good

My stash has gotten so large it has it's own blog.
