We had a taste of summer weather this weekend so Kerin, Jenny K., Hannah and I all went for a scenic drive - which, of course, ended at the Columbia Gorge Fiber Festival. None of us can resist pretty yarn & fiber! Photo of the Upstream Alpaca booth |

Warning: more baby clothes ahead! I'm due June 17th, so I thought I should slow down with all of my 100% wool projects for the kiddo unless they were sized a bit larger. Still, I wanted to make some super-tiny newborn clothes, so I pulled out some Simply Cotton Sport from my stash. |

This week, Kelley gets inspired by stashbusting! As Kelley organizes and sorts through her stash, she imagines the possibilities that go beyond one-skein projects and instead, combine several leftover yarns together for a bit of springtime stashbusting. Next, Kelley reviews several patterns that she found while browing around Ravelry by search for “stash” and “stashbusting”. She reviews some of her favorite patterns that she stumbled across, all of which make the most of using up many yarns together in one project for the ultimate stashbusting satisfaction. Finally, Kelley catches you up with her recently finished projects and what she is planning to put on her needles next.

With Kerin & Hannah's recent posts on organizing their stash, I decided to work on my craft corner last weekend! When I lived in Massachusetts, my significant other & I had a 3 bedroom house, which was great! I took the tiny room for my craft area, where I could keep all my yarny things, plus my sewing machine, books, a comfy chair and anything else I wanted in my own private sanctuary. It was a very small dark room but I liked having a place of my own. |
