Stash Flash

A selected part of the stash.


This is three boxes (not all full) of my handspun yarn. This does not actually include all the handspun yarn in the house, as the undyed stuff is elsewhere. You can see my problem? There are acid-dyed variegated yarns in here, just one skein usually of each, which do not match anything else. Then there are the plant dyed yarns, of a host of different thicknesses. Because bright yellow is the easiest and most obtainable plant dye on my holiday I have more than I would wish for – yellow is not my colour. But I realise it does lift all the others and is usually the one which non-fibre friendly folk notice because it is so bright. And lastly there are some pretty chunky skeins from my spinning thick days, which will not felt as I have tried. I need another box for dyed stuff which is not handspun, and there is already an overflowing box of white yarn to dye by whatever method.
