Yarn report Week 21

My family always knows when I am stressed.  I start organizing everything that isn't nailed down.  Our family is undergoing some medical issues--cancers, premature labor, difficult pregnancy, death of a loved one, major surgeries.  Since I can't "fix" anything I decided to organize my yarn.  Not only did I sort my stash for the fun of it I counted the number of skeins and yards.  Everything is recorded very neatly by weight, manufacturer, and amount.  If I had a project in mind that is also recorded.  Some of it I have no idea what I was going to knit.  Others had me asking myself "WHAT WAS I THINKING".

My Yarn Report for this week will be a confession of yardage that I need to work on.  Even though I am working on a project, I don't usually report the amount used until the project is completed.  So the following numbers are for my benefit and not for your shock or bewilderment. 

Worsted Weight/Aran Yarn:  14881 yards

DK/Sport Weight Yarn:  26913

Fingering/Sock Yarn:  18617

Chunky/Bulky Yarn:  216 ( I rarely knit with this)

Total:  60627 yards.

This will not stop me from purchasing yarn.  I have a few challenges--The Loopy Ewe and Eat Sleep Knit--that I love participating in.  And I may or may not have stash.  But I can tell you that the WHAT WAS I THINKING yarn will be gifted

 

In the coming weeks and months as I "report"  yarn in and yarn out I will also report yarn gifted.

 

PS:  I don't think I will inventory my fabric

PPS:  If you are a prayerful person, please remember my family as we go through and face some difficult times.
