Due to our impending relocation, I have (gasp!) packed my stash. In order to keep my yarn related sanity, I do have a bag that contains the dreaded minimalist cardigan and the first sock of a pair that I can pick up and work on at any time, (not that much knitting is going on between the packing and sorting or things and the cavalcade of events surrounding the boy genius' 31st birthday) but its nice to know that it could happen, even if its not very likely.
How big is the stash? Well... that's another story. Not so big as to be a Herculean effort to move, but not so small that you don't notice it. Respectable in quality and quantity (if you don't count some of the crazy dollar store novelty yarn that magically appeared....it just looked so lonely in the store that I had to bring it home), my stash would fit inside a volkswagon...
ummm....they do make buses right?
Its funny how I didn't seem to want to knit anything from my stash until it was packed away...Since the last of the yarn and fiber boxes got taped up, its all I can think about..Stash! Stash! Stash! All the projects that I could be doing with all that yarn start dancing in my head. All of the things I could be cussing instead of the minimalist cardigan! (this sweater is my nemesis, the Joker to my Batman)
One week and counting till the stash makes it to its new home, and all the yarny goodness can come out of hiding! I can't wait! Till then, I'll be the one huddled in the corner trying to fight the withdrawal. Wish me luck :)
