My first de-stashing of the year! I’ve wanted to get rid of my weird odds n’ ends yarn collection and this busted 4 skeins! Two baby blankets that I will give to charity. The peachy/tan yarn I bought years ago to make a sweater, but I didn’t like the way the variegation showed up in the sweater, so I ripped it out and it has been sitting in my bin annoying me ever since.
The brown border yarn I think was actually part of a UFO project that I ended up not liking (a brown cardigan). I knitted all the pieces, but hadn’t sewn them together yet or done the button placket. It wasn’t until I was going to bed last night that I remembered why I still had that skein of brown chunky yarn. Whoops. I guess the sweater will just have a contrast button placket (if I ever get around to finishing it).

I found yarn for a stripy project for me when stash diving for mending yarn. I didn’t remember I put those skeins in that box… I cast on, but will have to rip it up since the number of stitches were way off… Oh, well, part of the process! And it makes the yarn last longer.

Six new thank you notes out of all stash! The card blanks are probably at least 5 years old! Some of the circles used the last weird shapes of cardstock! Ditto for some of the bees!

That baby yeti is too cute, @Sceven!
I used up about 26 oz of stash yarn to make a cardigan for myself. I did buy the buttons, though.

I’ve rummaged in my stash today and this is what I’ve found: A fall felt display. Obviously I cut out all the pieces and then put it away… years ago I guess. Well, it’s still some time to finish it before fall

Would anybody like these? They are destined for the donation bin…
They have all the stuffs needed to make them. I’ll just never make them myself.
Me too!
