There must be a 12 step program for this...
I was inspired by Lolly to organize (contain) and assess the stash. Oh boy...

We're looking at 102,289 yards, which is equal to 58.12 miles! (There are three more tubs--smaller ones--that I forgot to photograph. And there are some things that didn't get counted--items in the frog pile--which I'm guessing add another mile or two!) I am going to do some de-stashing and list a few things on eBay although I really didn't find much in the stash that I disliked.
Goals:
1. I'm not going to put any undue pressure on myself to make a certain number of items or use a specific number of yards. I'm just going to concentrate on using what I have or finding projects to match the stash.
2. I will commit to no online yarn shopping through the summer. No exceptions. (Gulp--that's a tough one.)
Exceptions:
I will be attending Stitches Midwest and the Michigan Fiber Fest. I will allow myself to make purchases at both venues. I will attempt to purchase only unique items--things that cannot be readily found at LYSs or on the web.
