Not a great photo, is there a way to take a good picture though plastic bags, should try the Museum setting on the camera.
There were about 50 bins of yarn from 2 donors.
We get donations quite often from members and non-members, yarn, fibre and equipment but this
was the biggest.
I bought more yarn than I thought I would, I already have stash beyond life expectancy. But I could not resist.
Who could resist Cashmere, I don't think I have ever knit with Cashmere before.
This is Casbah, a Merino, Cashmere, and nylon sock yarn.
I have two problems. yes these are first world problems and it embarrasses me a bit to write about this. But I can deal with these problems.
First is choice, I feel like all this yarn is surrounding me both mentally and on the bedroom floor and I can't decide what to do with it, starting with where will it go. And it is getting pushy and demanding. It's almost all in Raverly, with pictures. So now I have to put it away and choose what I am going to start knitting. there are a lot of hats, scarves and shawls in my future, at least 3 sweaters. I want a shawl/cowl/hat set for myself.
But I need to finish a plain black sweater, I know I'll love this and wear it but it's a long dull slog.
And the donor loved bright colours and multicoloured yarns. Will I have to add neutral solids to the stash? Fortunately I have kilograms of white and gray fibre to spin for neutrals.
