Say It, "Rah-shay"

Words and thoughts from Rachée

S is for Stash + Yarn #Giveaway #AtoZChallenge

April 28, 2015

Dear friends! “P” should have been for procrastinate because most of last week, a bit of this week, found me worrying over a paper I had to write for school. If, by the grace of sorta good writing and the research librarian I hit up for help, I manage to get a decent grade, as God as my witness, I will never wait ’til the last-minute to finish what I need to do again!

Until next time.

No for real.

Ahem. Let’s get to it…my stash.

What  is it about yarn that makes knitters and crocheters hoard it so? I swear I had every intention on working through my stash and only buying what I needed but then I got this awesome cube deal from IKEA and someone in one of my blogging groups was all, “look at my stash” and then O got all Gollum and this:

So then, here is a look at my stash.

Rachee's stash of yarn

It’s a mess! I have not had time to go through it properly but with my part-time gig ending soon (the school year is thisclose to being over!), I think my Mondays will be dedicated to working through and organizing this mess.

However, I did mange to pull a few skeins off of the shelves to host a quick yarn giveaway.

There are 11 skeins total.

  • Four of Red Heart Reflective (two purple, two black)
  • One Bernat Boa in Black Burgandy
  • Red Heart Easy Tweed in Pistachio
  • Basic II Yarn (two in a variegated pink, two in a variegated orange)
  • Paramaxx Knitting Yarn in a dark green

      I started with crochet! I think I only had a G hook which I liberally borrowed from my sister! (And by liberally borrow I mean I stole it!)

    Oh jeez, I think a size ten has always been my favorite knitting needle size, but I just recently started using my sixes a lotttt!

      I love the bigger needles although I did use tens for my last project.

      K hooks have become my favorite; love the (almost) instant gratification of a quick finish to a product.

    Favourite needle size I would say 8mm I like big chunky knits!

It’s a muggy mess out there. Good conversation and three in with @nkengerushhall.
The random cat I saw during today’s run.
Back at it with the Sunday group! Got some love from Paco and words of encouragement from my run group.
Forgot to post this from today. We had a big program and one of my library littles came to check it out.
My watch glitched but who cares; I got it in! Submitted my last paper for this semester, had a good morning and got in three before starting the work day.
