Sorting the stash

I'm mostly unpacked in my new place. I vacuumed the living room floor today and promptly covered it with yarn to be re-sorted into recognizable categories within the stash bins. There's now a "WIPs" bin (for things I don't really feel like working on right now) and a "good yarn" bin (for fun and exciting future projects) and a "dishcloth yarn" bin full of cotton. Small bits that were cluttering up the bins were placed in a nice ceramic pot to be knitted into my labyrinth rug. :-) It was refreshing to have all my friendly yarn out again. I'm starting to itch for a new project... what shall it be?

Boxes, ho!

My apartment is filled with cardboard at the moment. I've got lots of boxes to pack for my move north on Wednesday. Today is filled with laundry doing, dish washing, and other chores that lead to more packing. I've sadly begun packing away the stash. My poor cat doesn't know what to do with himself. He hates all of the commotion. (And I think he misses the stash too.)

I'm surprised by how fast the summer has flown by. I finished that cable braid sweater months ago and still haven't gotten pictures. Most recently I've been working on dishtowels and washcloths for my new place. The movie-going scarf is complete, as is a matching hat. I also made Knitty's "Shedir" from the leftover Silky Tweed from the cable braid sweater. I also finished one experimental sock from the self striping sock yarn my friend gave me.

The next time I post I'll be in VA! I'm looking forward to finding a new LYS and new knitters to play with. :-)
