Use Up The Stash 2022 Challenge

Post by Jackielou »

Well I am going to combine all my stashes into one challenge. This will be my use up the yarn stash, use up the fabric stash, well really use up any stash that I already have in the sewing/craft room.

I look at all my stashes and think to myself, do I really want the DS's to have to handle this and the answer is no. So I plan on making a nice dent in what I have, and will even use up scraps and all those partial balls and orphan skeins.

Realistically I just want to make a pretty good dent in everything.

Finally the first real use up of anything in the craft stashes. Last night I used up a ball of fancy yarn on a scarf. Hopefully another ball of this same type of yarn will be used up soon.

Used up another ball of fancy yarn on a scarf yesterday. I cast on the third ball of fancy yarn and hopefully will be using that up tonight. After this my evening knitting projects will be a toque and learning how to knit socks with the sock loom I purchased many moons ago.

Used up the final ball of fancy yarn that I took out for the making of the scarves. I have now pulled out a ball of sock yarn and have started a pair of socks. I hope to get three pair done thus using up a bit of that stash.... I think I could be pushing it though.

I used up most of the one ball of sock yarn (there might be enough for the toes, heels and the top of another pair. We shall see.

I have also used up two balls of the cream coloured wool and a partial ball of the lighter grey wool in the first toque.
