A Lot of Yarn

[tygher]

Okay. I need help. In a huge way, and the Stashalong KAL is going to be that help, I can feel it. I had a huge cleaning push here at Casa Tygher Knits, and can actually see the floor in every room again ... and discovered I had yarn stashed away in places I'd forgotton about. Forgotten Yarn! The horror of it all!

Anyway, I have got to stop buying yarn, and I think the only way I'm going to accomplish that is by being accountable for my stash. Stashalong to the rescue!

Anyway, I'm choosing Option 1 for the moment, but I am borrowing from Option 3 as well, as I have a lot of things I want to get finished.

1. 'Dotted Check' Tunic Sweater - My first garment, and as such I really want it done before .. you know, march/April, when it won't be terribly wearable for long.
2. Irish Hiking Scarf (my variation) - Being knitted for the Red Scarf Project.
   
3. 3x3 Rib Scarf - Also planned for Red Scarf Project.
4. 'Cat's Eye' Scarf (from Knitter's Winter 2006) - Also for the Red Scarf Project -- All 3 need to be completed by the last week in January if possible.
5. Victoriana Top - Which I won't start until my other sweater is complete.
6. Heartstrings Beaded Smoke Ring - Again, should be finished before the cold weather runs out.
7. Tiny Beaded Scarf - I suddenly have a lot of beaded projects. Ack!
8. 2 pairs of socks - pattern undecided
   
9. Dishcloth KAL's to catch up on, which can be tossed in here and there.
   

I am choosing a 4-month period in which I will buy no yarn .. keeping in mind I can take 1 day off a month -if needed-. I have only one exception that I'm reserving for myself, and it will be used up in the next week or so: I received a Hobby Lobby gift card, and I intend to use it to purchase all the Sugar & Cream I need for the years KAL's from the Monthly Dishcloth KAL, and extra skeins for the Red Scarf Project scarves I'm working on, as I only have 1 ball of each yarn, and that just won't do.

I figured out how much yarn I have, not including the three bags with 'Wild Stuff' makings that I got for Christmas from Jason. I have 32,031 yards of yarn. 18.2 miles. 96093 feet. 1,117,152 inches. 145.6 furlongs. 9.49 parsecs.

Ouch.
