So I have a problem, its a good one but still a problem. One that will grow if I keep up the year of the sweater plan. I have run out of space to keep my hand knits. I had a dresser drawer and a closet shelf. The drawer is full of scarves, shawls, hats, and left gloves apparently and the shelf had to let go after a handknit sweater was lost due to the joys of cat ownership. High flying little fur balls.
I have made a lot of sweaters in the last couple of years and am planning on making more. So my question is where does one keep all these sweaters in an NYC apartment, when space is always an issue and at least during the winter months long term storage falls apart. I mean I can seal them and put them in above my closet where I need a ladder (which I don’t have) to reach. But when I am wearing them daily that’s less than helpful.
Currently they live atop my stash in states of, wearing, worn, to be washed, blocked, or repaired, and just ‘well where else is it going to go?’ So thoughts, ideas? Should I just head to the container store/Ikea and go wild? Where do I put all these sweaters, as it’s clear I’m not stopping anytime soon.
