The five across the top are Swish DK in Asparagus, Parrot, Carrot, Peapod, and Lemongrass Heather. They will be used for a hat and scarf set for Christian.
The blue is Shine Sport River, which will be part of Kelly's redo Swinging Stripe Cardigan (along with the same pink I had originally started it with).
The yellow is CotLin in Canary for a Playground Shirt, a T-shirt style sweater for Christian.
In other exciting news, I took the day off yesterday and my mom and I went to IKEA, where I bought a bunch of boxes to store my yarn in. I wasn't sure I was getting enough boxes, but it turned out I have plenty of leftover room for more yarn. One box I didn't even use at all yet. Here is my new stack of yarn boxes with little labels to let me know what is in each box, so that I don't have to sort through bags of yarn, AND it looks good!
In knitting news, I know I keep saying I will be finishing Twist & Shout any day, but I swear it will be done today and I will have a finished project post for you tomorrow! Promise!
That's how I store my yarn! I have 4 boxes for them but I think I'll be needing another, haha.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you did tell me that, but I was picturing something totally different - one of those plastic tower things with sliding drawers. That is what I thought you used, for whatever reason, haha.
ReplyDeleteI have like a little mini drawer bin for needles and accessories, but I have 4 canvas bins (a little bigger than yours) for yarn. But you still have more storage than me because you have more bins, haha.
ReplyDeleteOk, that must be what I was thinking of! And yes, work on building that stash up! :P (Not like you need any encouragement, haha)
ReplyDeletePlease, no encouragement! I already have enough in my cart and wish list on KP as it is, haha.
