So, after my Cold Sheep post last week, I've decided that I am going to have to take more drastic measures to not accumulate more yarn. As in, I'm going to have to do some de-stashing.
First things first, I'm going to have to organize the stash. As you probably read, it's a little bit of everywhere and this weekend I'm going to go through it all, catalog it and pack it into bins where I'll know right where to find it.
I started this half-heartedly back in the early fall, but only got about halfway through the stash and writing it all down on paper with the goal of getting it all input into my Ravelry stash. But, as always, I got distracted so now I have a half-catalogged stash and no idea which half I catalogged!
So, this weekend I'll be sifting through all my bins, which will be the perfect opportunity to take some photos so I can flash my stash! I'll be sure to take a before and after photo so that you can grasp the full extent of the chaos.
I know that it's a big task, but it's got to happen. And I know it's going to get worse before it gets better.
So be on the lookout for stash organization photos this weekend. Feel free to cheer me on, as I'll need all the motivation I can get!

Good luck with the organizing of the stash, its very ambitious. Consider this the start of your own personal cheer squad!
May I suggest only taking pictures of the yarn you want to de-stash? it would be faster!
I wanted to wish you luck with your stash sort / destash / cold sheep goals - organizing the stash is a great start!
Have fun with it! I like organizing things but the mid-way part is always the hardest. Can't wait to see the finshed stash.
I can't wait to see the stash! I think it's really fun to see what people gravitate toward in terms of yarn!
