No, this is not my yarn.
After discovering that my latest yarn purchase of ten pounds of cotton from Elmore-Pisgah will not fit into my yarn bins, I decided that I must go on a yarn diet. No more yarn (except needed for custom orders) until I can fit that ten pounds into the bins. So far I jammed about half of it in the bins.

Today is day two of my pledge. I am going to see how long I can go without buying yarn, just using some of my stash. I currently have twenty bins full of yarn, similar to the bins in the picture above. I have additional yarn that just won’t fit in the bins.
Here are some projects that I plan to work on to do some stash busting:
1. Afghan for youngest daughter — this should use up a bunch of yarn and free up almost a whole bin
2. American Girl doll clothes — oldest daughter is getting Felicity for her birthday next month
3. Several new sports themed beverage cozies for my Etsy shop
4. More Lovely Little Letters to work my way through the alphabet — great projects for using partial skeins and a way for me to work on making more patterns available soon
5. A couple new knitting loom projects, including another Garter Stitch Hat
