So I dove into the old stash cupboard today - I've sort of got an idea of what is in here.....
- projects of shame that are so close to being finished....but for some reason are not....
- projects started.....but frankly were way over my knitting ability way back when they were bought....
- yarn bought with no specific project in mind (my green phase LOL)
and then there are the "What WAS I thinking" yarns.
I have to make decisions about these projects, decide, take action, and move on.
In the WWIT category - we have two today.

I purchased this yarn to make the Timble design. A plain long-sleeved pullover as hinted at in the photo above. The largest size is a finished 48" and calls for 8 balls, I got 9 to make it a bit longer. |
You're ahead of me. I'm still knitting on other projects.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable! These two wools don't look anything like what you buy now. Funny how we change, isn't it?
