Stash-along
Total yardage in stash (as of 05.29.06): 35621 yards (roughly)
Total miles of yarn in stash : 20.24 miles of yarn
Holy cow, that's a LOT of yarn!!! But not as much as some people. What's sad is that this accumulation is only from about 1 1/2 years. Ay ay ay.
I have joined the SOS (aka Summer of Stash) KAL. The point is to knit only from the stash all summer long, from Memorial Day to Labor Day. This is absolutely necessary for me. I have about 5 projects in progress right now that I would like to finish, plus about 15 others that have yarn bought just waiting to be knit. Some of those projects are:
In Progress:
Lucky Wrap Around
Phildar Zip Cardi
Salina
Argyle Deep V Vest
On the long list:
Raspy
Phildar "Holey" Sweater
Clapotis
Adrienne Vitadini Shawl Collar Sweater from Vogue Knitting
Small Baby lace shirt (for cousin's baby)
Some sort of shawl from this killer possum yarn (yay for festival yarn!)
Mittens for my Sister
Morocco Shawl from Rowan Cotton Rope Book
Candy & Virtue Hats from Rowan Cotton Tape book
Branching Out
Random Yarn for which I have no projects:
Debbie Bliss Cotton Angora
Some lace weight yarn from handpaintedyarn.com
4 balls of Rowan KidSilk Haze
Rowan Cotton Tape bought on super sale at Elann
I also finished Green Gable! My husband is sadly out of town though working in Louisiana to help victims of last year's hurricanes and he's got our camera. So no photos until next week. But let me tell you, it's oh so cute.
(And actually, it's not even dry yet. It's been so humid here that even with full force fans the yarn is hanging on to that water so hard!)

Your projects look great! Good luck stash busting. I have been on a mini-break from buying yarn and it is killing me. I swear--I am addicted to buying yarn.

You did all of the addition too! It's kind of fun isn't it? Doing it made me want to bust through some stash just to see how much I decrease the yardage/mileage!
You have some great projects planned and in the works ;)
