That's... impressive! For some reason my three boxes seem nothing now.

Ooh, wow; how do you find what you're looking for? Are you one of those very organised people who knows where everything is, or do you treat your stash as an 'LYS' and browse till you find the right yarn?

Wow Terdotty, I've seen LYS with less yarn than that. Mine is miniscule compared to that, I will photograph all mine next week.

We recently had to buy a new TV, so we went for a flat screen and mounted it on the chimney breast which freed up a whole corner for.................. SOCK YARN :D :D :D

(This is only about half of my sock yarn stash :oops: )

Thanks for being tactful CC and just calling it 'impressive' rather than crazy or similar! I'm afraid that isn't everything, nowhere near... Slightly embarassing no? Knitty, I'm afraid I'm not one of those organised people - I wish - but amazingly I do remember most of what I've got, although sometimes it takes me a while to find it!

Terdotty : Blimey - mine looks positively paltry by comparison!

Jominx - I love that corner - where's the smiley for "itchy fingers" :mrgreen:
