I think I have too much yarn. I also think I need to go on a ‘yarn diet’. I’m not going to buy any new yarn until 2008. I also think I need to set an ‘ideal weight’ for the stash. Below is a screen shot of the graph I got my wonderful Excel yarnage spreadsheet to produce:

My stash, in kilometers. It’s at about 10 miles currently, for my American friends.

I think I would like the stash to hover around 8km, and to that end, I am going to try to knit only what I already have, re-sell, or give away yarn until I reach that goal. It will take well in to 2008 I think, because I have already given most of what I don’t want away. I’ll update monthly here, with a new screen shot around the first of each month.

I also want to get rid of most of my WIPs and UFOs before the New Year. I have the Capecho, and the $1.50 cardi hanging around right now. Once I finish the Millicents, those are my next projects. I’m also going to rip the UFOs I’ve had hanging around for years. The ripping is today’s project. Sadly, ripping out old projects means I add the yarn back into the spreadsheet, so my total will go up today.
