So one of the jobs I have assigned myself is to begin reviewing my leftover stash for real knitability, as in things I really want to knit, not just things I could potentially knit if I felt like it; and either find patterns to go with the yarn or gift the yarn to someone else.
To jump start this process and hoping to score a pattern for some beautiful Peruvian Baby Aplaca I received for Christmas I used another Christmas present and broke out my Chapter's gift card to purchase this gorgeous book:
I love this book! I have talked ad nausium about it with my Sunday Knitting group, and read it cover to cover already, and am headed back for more. It is well written, not over-whelming, and I think a large number of the patterns are well within my knitting abilities.
As well, our Sunday Knitting Group are having our 2nd year anniversary later this month and by way of celebration we'll be pot-lucking here at home with moi, and indulging in a little stash exchanging too! I need to get busy and bust that stash of mine wide open!
And so 2011 begins anew. It will be interesting to see where my stash is at the end of the year - with luck, no bigger and much more well defined with a more managable amount of assigned projects.
Knit on.....
