Time to Veg

The guys are loading up the last of the boxes of yarn into the van.  By the time they get that done and we packed, it would be getting dark - and well into rush hour.  (Although why it's called 'rush' when all you do is crawl....)

So we have elected to stay one more night and leave in the morning after a good night's sleep.

It has been a physically demanding job, sorting through all the yarn, deciding what to keep, what to toss, what will go to the guild.

Before things like this get better, they have to get a whole lot worse, but the yarn is now bagged in clear bags and stored in just two places in the house.  Once it is picked up there will be a lot more room in the basement!

We have the van loaded up and another stash stored at a friend's place, which we will pick up in January.

In the meantime I am not sure when I will be able to start using the yarn - my studio doesn't have much room for the quantity of yarn that will eventually be added to my stash.

But after helping with the 'estates' of three people, I am more determined than ever to get busy and weave it up.

Thanks Meg. I'm anxious to get home, unload the boxes and see about using some of the yarn up. I've promised Ken more tea towels as his are now getting ratty looking. With all the fine linen Lynn still had in her stash (in spite of my taking at least 40 pounds home previously!) I can make a lot of towels.

cheers,
Laura

Fine linen. Yum!
