Stash Update
The good:
I finished a big project today! Thats 687 yards out of the stash.
I also used up a whole ball of dishcloth cotton-another 100 yards!
The bad (well, not really, I guess):
I got two shipments of yarn but, in my defense, these were things I had bought long ago.
First--the second year of lace kit which included a hefty skein of helen's lace (in a lovely blue color) which added a hefty 1250 yards.
Second--my (very last) shipment of the yarn pirate sock yarn club. I loved being in the club but my sock knitting just hasn't kept up with the influx of sock yarn, so I quit a few months ago. I thought I had received all my shipments but I got one last skein! Another 425 yards in the stash.
So....... 254,470 yards.
I can't believe I'm INCREASING my yardage. dangit!!!
The big project was the dove shawl. It was sitting around almost finished for ages; I finally dug it out, finished the repeat I was working on and bound off. Its a little smaller than the pattern suggested but Its still plenty big. its blocking now but I'll take pictures tomorrow!!

I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures :) I've been on a great stash destash for some time, and I have to admit that every now and then my stash increases a bit too. Don't dismay, just stick to your guns, you can do it!
